(DCNF)—Podcast host Joe Rogan and comedian Dave Smith discussed Thursday how corporate media and the polls leading up to Election Day dismissed every sign on how President-elect Donald Trump was winning.
In the last few months of the election cycle, corporate media and Vice President Harris’ campaign upped their rhetoric against Trump, with President Joe Biden calling him to be “locked up” and Vice President Kamala Harris calling him a fascist. On “The Joe Rogan Experience,” the podcast host began by calling out how Republican turnout for the former president was “too big to rig,” before Smith jumped in to compare the race to former President Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign.

“So, turns out, voting works. It’s real. As much as we fucking thought they had it rigged, as much as we thought there was shenanigans and bullshit and it’s just a puppet show and there’s no way anybody could buck this system, turns out, voting is still real,” Rogan said. “And clearly he was too big to rig.”
Polls in October between Trump and Harris continued to show a dead heat between the two candidates, with The New York Times/Siena College final poll showing there was just one-point separating the two. Smith went on to note that despite polls and political pundits claiming it was a tight race, Trump won both the popular vote and the Electoral College.
“And it was like that with Trump where it’s like, all the signs are that he’s clearly running away with this. But then every single poll told you, ‘No, this is the closest election of your lifetime,’” Smith continued. “And then it was just, there was a very interesting feeling to see it and be like, ‘Oh, okay, I’m not crazy. I was observing all the things I was observing.’”
Rogan also added how the media gaslit voters, comparing Trump to Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler and other authoritarian regimes. In late October, Trump’s longest-serving chief of staff, John Kelly, told The New York Times and The Atlantic that Trump “met the definition of a fascist” and reportedly admired figures like Hitler, leading the way for corporate media to continue their rhetoric and pushing Harris to echo the sentiments at her town hall event with CNN.

“The media gaslit us to the absolute limits of their ability. The absolute limits. Joy Reid spent the entire time she was discussing Trump the other day, comparing him to Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, talking about a right-wing authoritarian regime, as if he had never been president for four years and didn’t behave like any of those things,” Rogan responded.
“As if the economy wasn’t booming, as if people weren’t making more money, as if we weren’t involved in any new conflicts overseas, no new wars. I could point to a lot of things Trump did in his four years that I think were bad, but they were things that were similar to Obama and Bush. I bet he could point to them too,” Rogan said.
Smith responded by stating that the corporate media and Democratic Party was only hurting themselves by relying on “lies,” calling out how they attempted to keep their control of the White House throughout the campaign cycle.
“Look, there’s obviously a huge series of these things where the Democrat establishment and the corporate media, but I repeat myself, it’s death by a thousand self-inflicted wounds. But it is almost as if— It’s like their whole thing relies on lies. It’s just all lies,” Smith said. “They have their eyes shut and their fingers in their ears, and they’re going, no, no, no, no, no, no. Nope. We’re just pretending reality is the thing we want it to be.”
“They don’t want to get slowed down by this force that is objective reality,” Smith added. “And so all of it, whether it’s Joe Biden’s sharpest attack, Kamala Harris’s joy, Donald Trump is Hitler, Tony Hinchcliffe was a man at an event who made some comments.”
Prior to Biden dropping out of the race, Republicans had highlighted to Democrats and corporate media how Biden’s mental fitness appeared to be deteriorating. However, Democrat lawmakers pushed back against the callouts until his debate against the former president in June when many began to question if Biden could handle another four years in office.
