Morgan & Morgan founder John Morgan shared surprising insights on Fox News Wednesday. He credited Barron Trump, President-elect Donald Trump’s youngest son, with urging his father to appear on Joe Rogan’s podcast. Morgan claimed it was a key move in defeating Vice President Kamala Harris.
“Barron Trump, who looks like a runway model, was telling his father, ‘you need to go on podcasts, you need to go on Joe Rogan,'” Morgan revealed.
Morgan criticized Harris’ campaign for its media strategy. While she did appear on some popular podcasts, none matched the influence of Rogan’s show. Harris’ team missed opportunities, he argued, by avoiding bigger platforms.
Trump’s long interview on Rogan’s podcast on Oct. 25 racked up over 50 million YouTube views. By contrast, Harris’ Oct. 6 appearance on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast barely reached 1 million views.
“Barron Trump is a lot smarter than everybody in the Harris [campaign],” Morgan said bluntly. “The progressives didn’t want to go on Joe Rogan.”
Morgan didn’t hold back, saying, “They played hide the ball, they lost badly. She should go away and never, ever come back.”
He also took aim at Harris’ attempts to mimic former President Barack Obama, who campaigned heavily for her. Morgan saw it as inauthentic and ineffective.
“[Harris] thinks she’s Obama,” he said. “She goes to Hawaii since Obama goes to Hawaii. She started talking like Obama, imitating Obama. She is not Barack Obama. She has no talent. She can never run for president again.”
A former Democratic donor, Morgan revealed he had warned against choosing Harris to replace Biden at the top of the ticket.
“She was going to be tethered to Biden no matter what,” he concluded.
