Kamala’s Wins
BREAKING: Following Donald Trump’s disastrous press conference, Joe Rogan and Tim Pool (two of Trump’s strongest supporters) have announced they are not voting for Donald Trump. Trump’s campaign is collapsing.

Good! He's losing his base!

Update: Tim Pool still voting for Trump

Loser...

1. What made convicts latest news conference (whiny public complaining)..

Any different from all the others???

[TwilightZone]

2. I'm not sure I'd call Rogan one of Trump's strongest supporters.

He endorsed RFK Jr., from what I understand. He's also refused to host Trump on his podcast the last few years.

Rogan is a hack, and I'm not sure he actually has any convictions, and he follows the wind where it blows. He's the JD Vance of podcasts.

[democratsruletheday]

24. yep...he's a huge asshole

fwiw

[Cosmocat]

27. I have a similar low opinion of him, but he is a major influencer

in the literal sense of the word.

I know a LOT of white males who take their lead from him.

[Srkdqltr]

3. If you know who they are or care what they think, you need a little less screen time. Go outside.

BTW who are they?

[TwilightZone]

8. Rogan is an inexplicably popular podcaster.

Highest number of views in the world, as I recall, which probably explains why seemingly half the country is fucked in the head.

[Initech]

20. It's probably because of his relationship with UFC.

Though I think since Dana White is a massive Trumpster, that relationship may be on the edge after that. But really, fuck both of them.

[Cosmocat]

28. lol

I get it, not in sense that I see anything in him myself, but I can see his demographic pretty clearly (white males).

4. My hunch is that this will snowball after the DNC.

Many more high profile Republicans will announce that they can't support dumpy anymore.

[ScratchCat]

10. A friend of mine is still swearing

That by the end of August, Trump will have a "medical condition" and the GOP will kick and scream that since the Democrats got to replace Biden, they get to replace Trump and Haley will be the nominee. He was more certain of it this morning. Even says "Haley vs Harris is a much better media story(will the first female President be R or D ?), and when they realize it, that's what they will push for". It wouldn't surprise me.

[videohead5]

19. Trump will never quit

It's not going to happen, and, in this case, he has already accepted the nomination.

[ScratchCat]

23. I think there is a chance

That if Ivanka could convince him a)he's not going to win and b)his only guarantee to stay out of prison is to drop out and support Haley (who has already said she would pardon him) - he would drop out. That's why they will go with "medical issue" so its not like its because he is going to lose.

And I know he has accepted the nomination. But do the last eight years make you think Republicans care about rules and procedure? Of course they don't. They will say dropping Trump now is no different than Democrats dropping Biden before the DNC and everybody will go along with it including the media, courts and Democrats.

And I know there are Trump supporters who don't like Haley. He'll tell them to vote for her; they'll listen.

[democratsruletheday]

25. He is a fucking train wreck right now and so is his 'campaign'...

he might drop out but ya know what? If he does a HUGE majority of maga(t) won't vote for Haley. Even if he endorses her they won't vote for her IMHO. Time will tell, wonder who Haley's VP would be? Doubt Vance would make her cut. He's a train wreck too.

The more I think about this folks the more I believe that the next 2 weeks could result in Vance getting dropped. It's ALWAYS someone else's fault with Trumpler. Vance could be the scapegoat. Who would he get to replace him? No clue.

[videohead5]

30. After the debate maybe

But at some point, it will be too late.

[Gore1FL]

31. There will be no way to change the ballots in numerous states. nt

[yellowcanine]

22. Many Trumpers will not vote for Haley

[Cosmocat]

32. They can try to create their alternative reality all they want

but he came out of the convention as their candidate, the cake is baked.

Either way, as long as he breathes air, he wouldn't step away from it.

[JI7]

5. He is just thinking of his image

but that's fine as it shows they view Trump as a loser they don't want to be associated with.

[GreenWave]

6. So Trump do you need help taking that walk of shame?

[WhiskeyGrinder]

7. Pool says he's voting for Trump. His claim that he's voting for RFK Jr. was a shitpost. CW: antisemitism

13. I edited the OP subject line...

...and included your tweet. Thanks for the heads up!

[WhiskeyGrinder]

15. embarrassing that other account fell for it

[LexVegas]

9. Rogan is an idiot, but he has never been a Trump supporter. Pool on the other hand... nt

[TwilightZone]

12. He has, at times, been a Trump supporter.

He weaves around like wheat in the wind.

11. Rogan endorsed Bernie in 2020 and Gary Johnson in 2016

Frankly, his track record is weird and it's all part of his "I'm wildly independent and can't be predicted" persona.

[TwilightZone]

14. Endorsed Bernie, then voted for Trump.

As you noted, his (scripted) unpredictability is his shtick.

[MaryMagdaline]

16. People don't want to be associated with losers.

This country is full of bandwagon voters. Policy does not matter.

I’m glad these two cretins see Trump as a loser. Maybe other bandwagon voters will drop out.

[Johnny2X2X]

17. His main gripe with Biden was age

Bernie did Joe's long form show a few years ago and it was great. Joe has a giant audience, if I were the Harris-Walz campaign I would consider sending Walz to do an hour with Rogan. His common sense talk will easily win Joe and his audience over. Joe is trans phobic and weird, but he holds a huge amount of sway over a segment of voters that Walz was brought on to win over. Joe is easily lead and impressionable, Walz could cursh it on his show and it would be smart to consider doing IMO.

18. I knew that didn't sound right, RE. Tim Tool. That little weasel wouldn't do the right thing, even

by accident. Not that voting for Kennedy is "the right thing". But was thinking more of his followers.

[iemanja]

21. Shouldn't that announcement come from them?

[OnDoutside]

26. Fuck Joe Rogan, the asshole. He could easily switch again.

Can the DOJ Garland intervene to stop them?.
