I listened to 170 hours of Joe Rogan’s podcast. Trust me, he hasn’t turned against Trump

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Any example of a question?
Do you just mean hard questions, like a classic journalist?
"Is it possible that Hillary Clinton actually was running a pedophile ring out of a pizza parlor basement? I mean, I'm just asking questions here."
I have a little experience on Glenn Beck.
What sparked that was Glenn Beck asking the first sitting Muslim member of Congress, Keith Ellison: "Now, I wouldn't say this, but some of my listeners might like to ask you: 'Are you working for our enemies?'".
Bear in mind that this was in a time when politicians were not openly working for Russia, so the idea of asking a sitting member of the House of Representatives if he was "working for our enemies" was galling. But it was Beck's technique of "Oh, I'm not saying, this, rather, 'it is being said by some unspecified people'" to weasel out of it being him saying it.
That said, I have avoided Rogan completely, so cannot speak directly to his particular brand of bullshit.
Thats pretty hilarious, the website I mean.
Hilarious and all, but did Glenn Beck rape and murder a child in 1990?
It's not the question asked. It's the first. Like hell have rfk on to spout nonsense about vaccines (made up example) and say he's just looking at all views, just asking questions.
Well, if you have questions, ask a scientist that has studied it, not someone with a brain worm that directly caused children's deaths due to misleading campaigns against vaccines on the Pacific islands.
Asking a terf on to talk about gender identity. Climate change deniers to talk about climate change. Asking trump on to talk about anything. It's a way to muddy the waters about who is an expert while also making it unclear as to what the evidence says.
