Joe Rogan Brutally Fact-Checked on His Own Show For Calling Biden Mentally 'Done' -- Over Something Said By Trump

https://www.mediaite.com/podcasts/joe-rogan-fact-checked-on-his-own-show-for-calling-biden-mentally-done-over-something-said-by-trump/

Joe Rogan became the victim of a brutal fact-check on his own show when he went off on President Joe Biden’s apparent cognitive decline, citing a speech in which Biden was actually quoting former President Donald Trump.

During a conversation with his guest, MMA fighter Bo Nickal, Rogan said some voters now regret voting for Biden in 2020. Then the two launched into a criticism of the 81-year-old president’s state of mind while mocking him for a recent speech during which he said something about losing the Revolutionary War because of a lack of airports.

“If you had any other job, and you were talking like that, they would go, ‘Hey, you’re done,'” Rogan said.

Moments later, Rogan’s producer Jamie Vernon interjected to play the clip Rogan referenced, which was actually a video of Biden mocking Trump for his comments about airports in the Revolutionary War.

He fired the guy who made him look like a fool.

That's a guess, I don't know for sure. Rogan may have sicced the MMA fighter on him.

just seconds after saying anyone else would have had to leave their job. So, yeah, huge hypocrites who aren't man enough to admit they were wrong, or to follow through what they had claimed were their own thoughts just seconds ago.

It’s just a shame that others have chosen to follow his dubious lead.

Cold comfort, but at least limbaugh can’t cause any new harm or generate any new poisons.

But the idiocy of the American general public hasn't been a secret for a long, long time. Look at how effective cynical manipulation is with advertising. It might be transparent to some of us, but its Pavlovian schemes pushes plentiful buttons and opens enough wallets to make it worthwhile.

Disgusting is how sycophantic kissa** comics have crowned him as their king and make the pilgrimage to his jerka** palace in Austin, Texas, and some have even moved down there. All of those Austin relocaters (carpetbaggers?) are late to the Austin bandwagon. In the late '60s and the '70s it indeed was a Lib site, but a party site where wannabe Hippies supposedly went to university but then, out of school, just stayed and stayed for the party, swelling it like a swollen tick. And lo these scores of years later the entertainment wingnut types have run out from the higher cost of living in California to build mansions at cut rate prices. And all with the same delusion of being kewl.
'
ROGAN and other podders like Dana LOESCH just watch YouTubes on history/science and convince themselves that they are educated and intellectuals. Heck, I've been enrolled in The University of YouTube for 2-3 years and have seen some of the same videos and recognize what ROGAN and Shane GILLIS et al. spout.

Rogan then admitted: “Oh okay. So he fucked up.”

No. YOU fucked up, Rogan.

You were so anxious to toss shit you grabbed at the first shit you could pull out of your ass.
1. How could you not know that was actually Trump?
2. Will you now admit TRUMP, according to you, is the one not qualified for President? Again!
