A big part of it, is he knows his core audience. White dudes, 25-45, primarily from the burbs. Guys that like to hunt. Guys that like weed. Guys that like to work out. Not all, but mostly guys in trades that can listen to him while they work. He tends to hit notes that resonate with that group. And they vote how? And whether it’s Kelly Clarkson’s daytime show or Joe Rogan’s podcast, you better believe they do audience research. You think women listen to Joe Rogan? Ah… no. They might watch his stand-up…maybe.
Edit, I actually have no clue who the hell watches his standup
Yeah, it's called the right-ring grift. Guys like Jordan Peterson, Andrew Tate, Jimmy Dore, Dave Rubin etc... know where the money is. Joe does what is good for Joe, and if that is advocating for not taxing the rich because it would put a dent in his generational wealth pocket book, he'll come up with a rationalization why that's "correct." A billionaire against being taxed more is not a leftist. Regardless, we can hypothesize about his motivations all day long. I'm simply looking at: a) the effect of his rhetoric/platofrm b) what he has gone on record saying c) % categories of the political orientation of the guests he brings on to platform.
