Your main problem is wood glue works best with pressure while it's drying and it's difficult to clamp long pieces with a join in the middle. I'd put in a rafix to clamp it while the glue dries but I have all that to hand.
Epoxy on the other side might be a good call if you never need to get it apart again.

Cut this bannister in half for transportation purposes. The threaded rod is epoxied in one end. The batton is there to hold the two halves together when it gets attached to the wall. I plan to use wood glue on the diagonal faces.
Should I attempt to epoxy the other end of the rod into its hole too? Or leave it floating?
