Forget the battleground states, the closing days battle this election is turning out to be for young men, and Donald Trump is hoping to seal the deal with a sit-down with Joe Rogan later this week.
In the latest twist in the sometimes barbed back and forth between the former president and the ex-Fear Factor host, Trump will visit Rogan’s Austin, TX podcast studio on Friday to tape an interview. Sources close to both the Trump and Rogan camps confirm the October 25 interview to Deadline.
No date given yet as to when the podcast will post. But, with the November 5 election a dead heat and the GOP strategy centering on men to get them over the top, the Trump edition of the Joe Rogan Experience will likely be made available within a week
However, officially, neither the Trump campaign nor Rogan’s reps responded to Deadline’s request for comment on Friday’s interview. If they do, this post will be updated.
In a scheduling swipe, Trump and Rogan’s long anticipated interview in Bat City is set for the same day that Vice President Kamala Harris will be in the Lone Star state too.
The VP is traveling to Houston to talk about the state’s near total abortion ban and the overturning of Roe v. Wade by the Supreme Court in 2022. Reproductive rights has proved a winning issue for Democrats in the past two years, with Harris the point person for the party. The VP will also campaign with Senate candidate Rep. Colin Allred (D-TX) in his bid to beat incumbent Ted Cruz.
Though there has been talk of Harris appearing on the well-listened-to Joe Rogan Experience, nothing has been set in stone yet with less than two weeks to go before Election Day.
