Joe Rogan is the latest MAGA dipsh*t daring me to head over to Staunton on Saturday for the “No Kings” rally, which I was going to do anyway, but even so.
“All those people that are protesting on the streets, 99 percent of them are losers. The other ones work for the Fed,” Rogan said today on his podcast, which I only read about.
Never listened to a Joe Rogan podcast.
It supposedly gets 11 million listeners per episode.
I mean, I guess.
You know, if they say so.
More from Rogan on “No Kings”:
“There’s a guy with a van whose paid by George Soros, and he’s got stacks of signs that were made at Kinko’s.”
News flash: there are still Kinko’s?
I had no idea.
So, I’m either among the 99 percent who are “losers,” or the 1 percent who work for “the Fed” – did he mean to reference the Federal Reserve there? – and whichever it is, I need to find the van to get my sign.
Got it.
I dunno, maybe leave your studio in Austin – interesting choice of digs there, by the way, the most liberal city in Texas – and hit the streets on Saturday to see for yourself.

The funny thing about a Joe Rogan advancing this idea is, we’re told that disaffected MAGA voters don’t like Democrats because Democrats come across as rich people talking down to them.
We literally have a guy who broadcasts from his $14.4 million mansion in a liberal enclave telling the world that he thinks 99 percent of the people he disagrees with are “losers.”
Guess what, disaffected MAGA voter – he thinks you’re a “loser,” too.

The first rally in Downtown Staunton, back in April, drew around 500 people; the second one, in June, closer to 1,500.
You know how many people live in our little neck of the woods, tucked between two mountain ranges, which votes around 70 percent Trump?
Give or take, about 125,000.
We got 1 percent to come out on a hot summer day to tell elitists like Joe Rogan what we think of them calling us “losers.”
Let’s get closer to 3.5 percent this weekend.
Whaddya say?
