If anything it's going to be Kamala nixing the Rogan interview given the non-standard format and topics of his show. Personally I don't think it's worth the risk for her do it but the campaign seems to be dead-set on reaching out to Republicans and more traditionally right-leaning groups.

It's not necessarily right leaning audiences, it's young men. She is trying to reach young men. Trump has been talking directly to these young men for a long time, and Harris must be seeing weakness with Gen Z men to justify the strategy change. I am not opposed to her going on Rogan, as it's an audience Harris has never spoken to before.

Rogan's audience is large (something like 14 million) and I think a fair percentage of them are, to be kind, dummies without strong political beliefs. The guy who cuts my hair is a Joe Rogan fan and I don't think he's a Republican, just, well, a dummy. And some dummies vote. If she were able to get .005% of his audience to vote for her, that could be very helpful.

This basically describes my acquaintances who love Rogan and his schtick
