On the eve of the election, popular podcast host Joe Rogan made a surprising move by officially endorsing Donald Trump. Trump's team wasted no time in touting this as a major win in the final hours of their campaign. In his latest podcast released on Monday, Rogan featured a two-and-a-half-hour interview with billionaire and top Trump supporter, Elon Musk. He then took to social media to share his thoughts, saying ""The great and powerful @elonmusk. If it wasn't for him we'd be f---ed. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you'll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way." In case there was any confusion, he clarified by adding, "For the record, yes, that's an endorsement of Trump. Enjoy the podcast."
As the US election results poured in, Rogan's endorsement caused quite a stir. Many were surprised, as just weeks prior, he had interviewed Trump on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. The interview was a long-awaited achievement for the Trump campaign, who saw it as a strategic move to reach out to young men and low-propensity voters. The former president's advisors were thrilled with the response, as the interview was widely viewed by their target demographic.
Meanwhile, Trump was on stage in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, for one of his final rallies when he heard the news of Rogan's endorsement. He couldn't help but boast about it to the crowd, saying "It just came over the wires that Joe Rogan just endorsed me, is that great. Thank you, Joe. That's so nice. And he doesn't do that, he doesn't do that stuff," followed by a sly comment about Rogan's political leanings.
But Rogan's support for Trump wasn't the only noteworthy moment in his recent podcasts. Last week, he revealed that he had turned down an offer from Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign to do an interview. While he expressed a desire to have a "nice conversation" and get to know Harris as a person, he also shared that the campaign's proposed time and location didn't align with his preferences. The Harris campaign declined to comment on Rogan's post.
In the midst of all the election chaos, one thing is for sure – Rogan is making waves in the political sphere. His bold endorsements and interviews have caught the attention of many, and it seems like he's not afraid to speak his mind and share his opinions. Whether you agree with him or not, it's safe to say that Rogan is a key player in this year's election.
