“I strongly feel the best way to do it is in the studio in Austin,” Rogan stated, adding, “My sincere wish is to just have a nice conversation and get to know her as a human being. I really hope we can make it happen.”
The possibility of Harris appearing on the show became a topic of discussion during Trump’s recent interview.
