  1. I don't know if this helps or hurts Kamala, who the fuck knows or even cares at this point?
    Couldn't watch more than 15 minutes or so. I mean, I feel for the guy, hope he continues to get better, but WTF? This system is so broken, so corrupt, so beyond repair its just pathetic at this point.
    We are a nation that can no longer be taken seriously. Tragically that means we have serious problems ahead of us, very serious. It was a decent run America, but it's painfully obvious that run is just about over.

    Growing up in Kentucky for a while as a kid...he reminds me of the people in a nearby cult who were very hippy-like, smoked weed all-day, and grew their food on a farm while listening to hard metal rock.

    People need to read up on stroke victims before asking a person a bunch of questions who is still recovering from a stroke.

    Yet, with him still recovering from that Big Stroke and his hippy-like personality...he may come across as a guy who moves quickly to other topics without answering someone's initial questions.

    With that said, I think he did OK especially when he became less nervous talking to Rogan.

    Hat off to Rogan for having a sincere interest in learning about the medical things involving his stroke and depression. By the way, Fetterman had heart problems from high blood pressure...shockingly he does not mention the high blood pressure but his wife does in other interviews.

    Fetterman spotlights what he read on social media when people targeted him when he had his stroke, being open about his depression, and attacking his family while he was still in the hospital...the truth and cruel aspect of America.

    Money is destroying our Democracy...and social media is an accelerant - Fetterman​

    America itself has dramatically rising cases of high blood pressure since the 1960s accordingly to multiple medical studies at the VA that has been ongoing for +60 years. The VA correlated the timeline of rising blood pressure with the rise in fast food restaurants that franchised and then popped up all over the country.

    Now we have fast food restaurants franchising in rural communities since the 1980s...people in rural communities have high blood pressure problems too. 10x higher in rural communities and 30x higher in urban communities.

    Another interesting aspect although well discussed about the need (cheap labor) for more immigrants that Americans do not want to work. These are not jobs taken away from America...they are jobs that Americans do not want to work because it's hard work for lower pay.

    This was well discussed by Rogan.

    Also, discussion about why Trump tanked the immigration border bill that had bipartisan support giving the Republicans what they wanted.

    It was tanked for fear of a hypothetical situation of flooding the swing states with millions of immigrants that could be given benefits and legal vote status.

    Immigration is what makes / made America strong - Fetterman

    The aspect of their discussion that I was glad they talked about involved food additives and preservatives in America's food that are illegal or banned in European foods because it's dangerous to the health of European residents.

    I know the difference too because I reside in three different countries (the United States, Canada, and France)...ingredients in foods in Europe (Rogan/Fetterman talked about french fries and hamburgers) have fewer additives and preservatives in Europe versus being commonly added to foods in America.

    Spot on...McDonald's french fries in Europe are different than McDonald's french fries in America. My kids (raised in France and Quebec, Canada) notice the difference in the same foods in America versus the same foods in Europe and Quebec...taste difference, smell difference, size difference and expiration difference. :D

    This guy was an idiot before having a stroke. Show some respect and wear a suit.

    Dems should return to their relatable hippie roots.
