“I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, shape, or form,” Joe Rogan said. “I’ve had the opportunity to have him 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 host of the Joe Rogan Experience admitted on a recent episode of Lex Fridman’s podcast that he turned down many chances to interview former President Donald Trump.
In addition to labelling Trump “an existential threat to democracy itself,” Rogan criticized those who, in his words, “felt like they could abandon their own ethics, morals, and principles just to attack him and everybody who supports him.”
The presenter of Rogan’s podcast has a history of inviting contentious guests with whom he doesn’t always agree, like Kanye West, for example, thus Fridman, an AI researcher at MIT, predicted that Trump would eventually appear on the show.
But Rogan claimed Kanye is an artist, who is not as influential as former President Trump in determining the fate of the nation.
Joe Rogan’s View On Trump’s 2024 Presidential Ambitions And President Joe Biden
Fridman questioned Rogan about Trump’s intention to run for president again in 2024 and whether he has a chance of winning.
Rogan: “Well, [Trump’s] running against a dead man, you know? I mean, [Joe] Biden shakes hands with people that aren’t even there when he gets off stage. I think he’s seeing ghosts. You see him on Jimmy Kimmel the other day?
“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 f—ing talk show would be screaming for him to be off the air.”
