Talk show host Joe Rogan will not be supporting Donald Trump for President. The Republican party will need to go without the support of the comedian and podcast personality. MAGA and Donald Trump supporters are not happy with Rogan’s pick.
Joe Rogan Not Supporting Donald Trump
New York’s Donald Trump, the luxury hotel magnate, has been a long-time supporter of the UFC and is a close personal friend of UFC leader Dana White. White has spoken at multiple RNC rallies showing his unwavering support for Trump. Rogan has been working alongside the UFC for decades as one of the key voices of the organization.
Joe Rogan instead threw his support behind third-party candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who will be running for President as an independent in November. On his talk show earlier this week, Rogan said:
“He’s the only one that makes sense to me. He doesn’t attack people, he attacks actions and ideas, but he’s much more reasonable and intelligent. I mean, the guy was an environmental lawyer and he cleaned up the East River. He’s a legitimate guy.”
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. thanked Joe Rogan on social media and said:
From one “legitimate” guy to another, thank you [Joe Rogan] for always putting substance first.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has some ideas. He claimed that Covid-19 was “ethnically targeted” to spare Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese people. Also, RFK Jr. suggested that antidepressants are responsible for school shootings.
Many fans and followers of Joe Rogan are pissed off by the host’s pick for President, as they feel betrayed.
