Popular podcaster Joe Rogan appears to have broken with President Donald Trump on one of the president's key policy platforms during a recent episode, a move that stunned one former GOP analyst.
During a recent episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience," Rogan said Trump's effort to send people to deport immigrants to foreign countries "shows no heart."
"That shows no heart, and that's the problem," Rogan said. "You're not going to get any reasonable people to want to go along with that. Any kind person would look at that and go, 'This can't be the only way to do this.'"
Tim Miller, a former Republican strategist, said on a new episode of "Bulwark Takes" on Thursday that Rogan's comments show he's becoming a "stalwart" on the issue for parts of the right wing.
"It's helping wake up a lot of people who might not be consuming whatever left media or even mainstream media," Miller said. "A lot of people who aren't reading the New York Times or watching the nightly news and who are getting their information from Rogan... maybe some of them will also be woken up to the fact that holy s--- they signed up for something that was a lot more cruel than they wanted."
