Joe Rogan rejects Trump as podcast guest: “I don’t wanna help him”
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
- Joe Rogan revealed that he had rejected former President Donald Trump as a guest on his Spotify podcast “The Joe Rogan Experience.”
- “I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, shape, or form,” Rogan said in an interview.
- The former president has not responded to Rogan’s statement so far.
Joe Rogan revealed on a recent episode of Lex Fridman’s podcast that he has repeatedly rejected multiple offers to host former President Donald Trump on “The Joe Rogan Experience.” Rogan said he is not a Trump supporter and refuses to help the former president by having him on his popular Spotify podcast.
“By the way, I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, shape, or form,” Rogan said Monday during the interview. “I’ve had the opportunity to have [Trump] on my show more than once — I’ve said no, every time. I don’t want to help him. I’m not interested in helping him.”
The former president has not responded to Rogan’s statement so far. The Experience has a massive audience but Trump has not said if wanted to come on the show. He has also said nothing about being turned down as a guest.
“The Trump era is also going to be one of the weirder times,” Rogan told Fridman.
The former Fear Factor host talked about how people will talk about the division in the United States, saying how Trump is “such a polarizing figure that so many people felt like they could abandon their own ethics and morals and principles just to attack him and anybody who supports him because he is an existential threat to democracy itself.”
Fridman pushed back and told Rogan that Trump would eventually be a guest on “The Joe Rogan Experience” in the future. Rogan has previously hosted people he didn’t necessarily agree with politically. The AI scientist and MIT professor noted Kanye West as one example.
“Yeah, but Kanye’s an artist,” Rogan replied. “Kanye doing well or not doing well, doesn’t change the course of our country.”
The podcast host also said Trump will most likely run for reelection in 2024.
When Fridman asked him if Trump can win, Rogan replied, “Well, he’s running against a dead man, you know? I mean, Biden shakes hands with people that aren’t even there when he gets off stage. I think he’s seeing ghosts.”
Rogan then mentioned President Joe Biden’s recent appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”
“He was just rambling. I mean, he’s — if he was anyone else, if he was a Republican, if that was Donald Trump doing that, every fucking talk show would be screaming for him to be off the air.”

So Rogan rather have an idiot like Brandon and “they / there” Soros backed radically globalist ilk – continue to run the United states into the ground.
Rogan just lost 50 % of his podcast listeners – Brilliant Joe – “You didn’t help Trump and you didn’t help yourself….

I thought Mr. Rogan was smarter than this. It’s obvious he’s developing a liberalist mentality with that attitude. Trump shows the American people exactly what were up against everytime he stirs the pot. We’ve needed this since the Clinton era. The “Demonrats” and socialist liberals have been undermining our Democracy unchecked for years. “Polarizing”!!! Damn staight! If Trump hadn’t shown up when he did, America would have slipped into the abyss unchecked. Thank you Mr. Trump! Always my Hero!

I can understand where Joe Rogan is coming from. Yes, Trump’s policies were a million times better than Biden. Yes, the economy and just about everything else was better under Trump. Trump’s problem is he doesn’t know how to get out of his own way. Sometimes it’s better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you’re an asshole rather than open your mouth and remove all doubt. I’m pretty sure if Trump wins the republican primary Joe will vote for him against Biden, however I’m just as sure that the republicans can come up with a better candidate that supports Trump’s policies but isn’t the jerk Trump is. Ron DeSantis, Greg Abbot, Jim Jordan, Tom Cotton, heck the republicans have a deep bench.
Remember, both Hillary and Biden were weak candidates, Biden didn’t even campaign. And both still got more votes than Trump. Trump doesn’t realize when he insults women (Carly) that half the voters in the US are women. Pick a better candidate. They’re out there.

Armed and Dangerous: Sir, you are Armed and Stupid if you think any other politician will do (like Trump) and do what they say they will do after they get elected. When it comes to Trump you can count on one thing. He will do what he says and what is best for America. What is wrong with you people who can’t deal with somebody who tells it like it is and then follows through. Let’s start paying on results and to hell with personality.

I’m Very Sorry That So Many Conservatives Stood Up for Rogan When the Liberals Were After Him! I’ve Lost Any Respect for Him I Had! And for the Responder Above who Seems to Think That Joe Biden Got More Votes than Trump, That’s a Bunch Of BS! The Ballot Boxes Were Stuffed & Stuffed Until They Could Count More Votes for Biden. STOLEN! THE ELECTION WAS STOLEN SO WAKE UP!
