The podcaster and radio host also excoriated what he saw as the media’s double standards and failure to convey the true danger of Trump’s rhetoric.
In a clip that has gone viral on social media, Charlamagne, a popular podcaster and co-host of the nationally syndicated radio show The Breakfast Club, is asked by host Anderson Cooper about Trump’s plan to appear on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast and whether Harris planned to do the same.
“I think that she should keep calling Donald Trump a fascist,” Charlamagne replied tersely.
He continued, “And I think that Americans need to keep looking at the rhetoric of Donald Trump because I don’t know why we’re even thinking about electing somebody who’s talking about putting people in camps. I don’t know why we’re talking, why we want to elect somebody who’s talking about mass deportation. I don’t know why we’re having this conversation about somebody who wants to terminate the constitution to overthrow the results of an election. Aren’t we supposed to be a patriotic country? Whenever somebody like Colin Kaepernick takes a knee in this country, everybody talks about, ‘Oh, that’s so unpatriotic.’ But a guy can say he wants to terminate the constitution to overthrow the results of an election and nobody cares?”
Addressing Cooper, Charlamagne said, “Now, you brought it back to Kamala and Joe Rogan, Anderson, who gives a damn?”
.
And you are one of the most trusted voices on television,
He should have followed it up with “He’s already threatened to have broadcast licenses pulled from a news network that did nothing more than fact check him. What do you think he’d do to you and yours if you don’t report positively 24 hours a day?”
.
This is exactly the way Trump needs to be covered and while I don’t listen to Poscasts, it really makes me want to start.
Start with Cleanup on Aisle 45 instead of the Breakfast Club.
Good
Charlie Manson probably wanted to rule the entire world, it wouldn’t be discussed on the news every night seriously though, as a viable option, because Charlie had a swastika carved into his forehead.
This conversation speaks to the fact that trump also has a swastika carved into his head, it’s just filled in with hair plugs and covered with expensive, orange, special-ordered Swedish makeup. CNN chooses not to see or acknowledge the swastika. They know it’s there though.
Cooper can suck on a turd. Cause all he does is spew shit
slams
Come on and SLAM

Because that’s the point…
As someone who just hasn’t heard of him before his interview with Kamala, could you tell me the point? Genuinely curious.
Because he brought up some very poignant talking points and this person mentions his name and decides to hone in on that rather than the substance of what is being said.
Oh, I misread your comment to say that he named himself that because he’s not a god, like there was some back story or something!
Absolutely agree that what he said is more important than the stage name used when saying it
