Is this important, or just an isolated incident? (via Allahpundit at Hot Air)
Joe Rogan–who supported Bernie–on his podcast yesterday w/ managing director of Thiel Capital Eric Weinstein.
"I’d rather vote for Trump than [Biden]. I don’t think he can handle anything. You’re relying entirely on his cabinet."

Allahpundit then delves into some Trump is potentially doomed stuff, as he typically does, before getting to
I think the most useful thing about the Rogan clip for Republicans is his ongoing concern about Biden’s mental acuity. He brings it up every time he goes off on him; it’s his most basic objection to supporting the moderate, more so even than policy disagreements. If you’re wondering how much the GOP should attack Biden’s competence this fall, here’s anecdotal evidence that the answer is “a lot.†In fact, for some Bernie fans the competence concerns may be a fig leaf for their real reasons for wanting to stay home. If you’re a committed socialist trying to talk yourself into boycotting the election because Biden’s a squish and you keep running up against your visceral dislike for Trump, a “neutral†argument about Biden not being fit for the job might be all the persuasion you need. It’s difficult for a hard leftist to justify not supporting a center-leftist over a right-winger. It’s much easier if that center-leftist has disqualified himself on other grounds.
One has to wonder how many other Bernie bros (which includes women supporting Bernie) will refuse to vote for Biden. They may not be actually voting for Trump, but, it could be a lot of votes not going to Biden. How many decide to just stay home and not bother voting at all? Biden is a mess. He really does look like he’s losing his mental acuity. A lot will depend on the recovery post-Bat Soup Virus. If the economy comes roaring back, you’ll have a lot of Bernie Bros sitting out. You’ll also have a lot of soft Dems sitting it out when it comes to Biden, especially if Biden does poorly in debates.
Say it ain’t so Joe…
Bwaha!
Lolgf
Frankly, I don’t believe the economy will “come roaring back”. My wife’s business was shut down (being non-essential to America but not us) by force of our Democrat governor and I can tell you we won’t be “roaring” anywhere. Trying to get back customers it took three years to develop is not easy. And it’s going to be very expensive, advertising wise. She applied for her Coronavirus Aid,Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) low interest loan through SBA. Surprisingly, TD Bank told her the $265,000 loan will electronically hit her account by next week. Plus, they plan to “forgive” 95% of the loan within three months. Which is only right since they caused the loss to begin with. If we didn’t do that the expenses would have put her out of business so it’s a good thing the government took responsibility for the economic damage they caused.
Also, the left, the Democrat Party and their co-conspirators in the Fake News Media will mount an aggressive assault against Trump and the economy to try and win in November. Why not? They tried everything else including killing Americans and closing their livelihoods.
Trump 2020 Don’t let the liars win.
Well unfortunately for Joe Rogan regardless of how he personally voted all of his home state CA electoral votes will be going to the Democratic nominee
Don’t bet on that.
Newsom and Garcetti have probably alienated a lot of the rank and file.
Or are you intimating massive vote fraud?
