AUSTIN, TEXAS: Vice President and Democratic presdiential nominee Kamala Harris sparked mockery on social media after news broke that she may make a surprise appearance on Joe Rogan’s popular podcast 'The Joe Rogan Experience', in an effort to bolster her appeal among male voters, especially younger men, sources disclosed on Monday, October 14.

Representatives from Harris' campaign team have recently held a meeting with Rogan's team. However, an interview has not yet been confirmed, as per two sources acquainted with the matter, The Tribune reported.

Kamala Harris seeks to expand her appeal in a competitive election landscape

Joe Rogan, the host of the popular podcast 'The Joe Rogan Experience' commands a dedicated following that numbers in tens of millions.

The prospective interview will offer Kamala Harris an opportunity to engage with her audience, especially as she aims to garner support from male voters, including Black men. Public polls indicate that Republican candidate Donald Trump may have strong performance among young male voters of all racial demographics.

On Monday, October 14, Harris revealed a series of policy proposals targeting Black male voters, intensifying her campaign's efforts to engage with this traditionally Democratic-leaning demographic.

Additionally, her team has scheduled an interview with Fox News, a channel often recognized for its conservative commentary and support for Trump.

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump eye Joe Rogan podcast appearances

Meanwhile, Donald Trump has expressed his intention to feature on Joe Rogan's podcast prior to Election Day. Despite previous conflicts, Trump has recently described Rogan as a "good guy," following his earlier criticism on Truth Social in August.

In 2022, Joe Rogan clarified that he did not support Trump and, in August, he had voiced his preference for Robert F Kennedy Jr for president. However, Kennedy later withdrew from the race and endorsed Trump.

In the 2024 presidential campaign, Rogan has offered praise for Harris and critiqued Trump. In September, he commended Harris and her campaign team following her face-off with Trump in the September 10 presidential debate.

"Whoever is helping her, whoever's coaching her, whoever's the puppet master running the strings … amazing job! They did an amazing job—from the moment Biden drops out," Rogan told guest Tom Segura.

Later that month, he mentioned on his podcast that a potential administration led by Harris and her vice-presidential candidate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, might lead to a "clampdown" on online free speech.

Internet mocks Kamala Harris over appearing on Joe Rogan's podcast

Many social media users mocked Kamala Harris over the news that she could appear on Joe Rogan's podcast 'The Joe Rogan Experience' to reach out to young male voters.

A user claimed, "She must have gotten nervous because Trump is going on."

Another added, "That would be a train wreck. I will listen and laugh."

The third commentator remarked, "She'd make a fool out of herself, so I say do it."

"She repeats the same stupid word salad no matter the question. She can't talk for 3 hours. This would be embarrassing," claimed a user.

A person wrote, "Kamala can't go on Joe Rogan podcast because he will ask real questions. What were Kamala's actual achievements as VP and why didn't she take her boarder Czar duties seriously?"

Other chimed in, "Too late - she’s toast."
