Its crazy people even take Joe seriously when it comes to politics, dude is a comedian/cage fight announcer and he says it all the time "Don't take me seriously, I'm just a comedian who tells peenis jokes"
Yet his detractors think he is a presidential candidate or something. He's not even a politician
They swear like he is literally drafting bills and passing them into office.
Wild.
I get what you're saying and I have heard Joe say a few times that he doesn't know what he's talking about, but most of the time he speaks to his millions of listeners like he does. It influences people in a big way. When you invite a guy on the podcast like RFK that just straight up lies and says vaccines cause autism a portion of his audience is gonna believe that and stop vaccinating their kids. Same with him telling his audience he's taking Ivermectin for COVID. I believe he has a responsibility to offer some push back when people make these claims, especially when they are running for president.
I used to be a huge fan of Joe but the guy should be called out for the bs he spouts. Lately he has been wedging in right wing culture war talking points into many of his conversations. Even with non political guest, the Bobby Lee one was very hard to watch.
