That would be epic. Not to mention it would change the landscape of presidential debates away from main stream media. But lets face it there are a few things:

  1. Joe Rogan will not be easy on Trump because he is still center left and he will focus on main stream issues like healthcare, education and drugs which would not win Trump any votes from Dems. Trump needs to focus on the extreme left not moderate left if he wants to win, stuff like free speech, law and order, identity politics, the lying manipulative Democrats who hate the country.
  2. Biden will not accept it, him to debate without help from CNN to get the questions before the debate or have a prompter would be insanely stupid for his campaign
  3. This was smart of Trump to accept knowing that Biden will not.

That wouldn't matter. Because Biden would fumble each of these things much worse without a hand up has ass to guide him.

Come on Biden, do it. It would be hilarious for everyone except the MSM, and screw them.

Has Biden ever been bow hunting on DMT?

Still a more relevant question than the stuff the media's been asking him so far

Are policy questions even relevant when he doesn't know where he is? Letting him ramble about any topic is better than hosting a play.

Does he even know who he is?

Dunno, but he sure seems interested in how much cocaine his interviewers have access to.

Moderated debates have literally killed the entire purpose of debating.

this would be awesome, but sleepy joe biden would never go for it.

Biden MIGHT not refuse... Some of the DNC'S heavies might pay Rogan a "visit" to ensure that he asks the questions they want him to ask.

Hahaha, they don't need to threaten Rogan.

As you can see on his Podcasts, his "opinion" on things changes wildly depending on who he currently has on his show. He's a sell-out and he knows which side of the bread is buttered, so he'll help the Democrats.

I don't think he will.

If he's smart he'd see it as an opportunity to skyrocket his brand to global recognition. He doesn't gain anything by softballing Biden.

If he really wants to do it right he should attempt to entrap the Biden team into trying to control the process and call it out with evidence live on air.

He won't go that far though.

Really it'll just be him overseeing a really one-sided debate on super normie issues... and then he opens the door and Alex Jones bursts into the room as a surprise moderator.

I completely disagree. The power of the media and shaping public opinion is entirely in the hands of the left. If Rogan doesn't treat Biden with kid gloves, they'll destroy his brand. Especially on the global field, to people who haven't heard of him. They'll frame him as a closet far-right "hatemonger", or they'll say he has no spine and buckled against "Trump's brutal way of speaking". They'll make up shit about how he is in cahoots with the Republicans. On and on, we've seen this before.

Also, this is beside the point, but I doubt he's even a centrist. In private, he probably has normie-left opinions if he has any at all. For him to even consider not giving in to the DNC in that debate, he'd have to be at least somewhat pro-Trump. That's the kind of political climate we're in.

It would be nothing short of incredible if this happened, but we all know a DNC stooge like Biden won't do it.

Bernie would have said yes, so this will be yet another case proving Bernie should have been given the nomination. Again.

And no, I am not a Bernie Bro.

Not a Bernie bro either. But a Bernie vs Trump race would be genuinely more interesting than what we have now.

Well Bernie can still form sentences so of course it would be.

I can see Biden wanting to say yes, too. Neither of their handlers would let this happen, for numerous reasons. If you believe nothing else, believe that the networks don't want competition and would throw their weight around to stop this from happening.

Honestly, I'd rather it be a tag team of Eddie Bravo and Alex Jones being the moderators. That would definitely be lol worthy.

I'd love to see Joe Rogan, Alex Jones and Tim Pool as a three-man moderation team. Joe on the left, Alex on the right and Tim as the milquetoast fence-sitter / media fact-checker.
