Election season is heating up, and the drama is already reaching a fever pitch. In a surprising turn of events, former President Donald Trump has set his sights on an unexpected target: UFC commentator Joe Rogan. The reason? Rogan’s recent praise for independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The political landscape is never dull, but this latest spat has raised eyebrows across the nation. Trump, known for his fiery rhetoric and social media prowess, took to his platform ‘Truth Socials’ to express his displeasure. He didn’t pull any punches in his criticism of Rogan.
“ It will be interesting to see how loudly Joe Rogan gets BOOED the next time he enters the UFC Ring??? MAGA2024,” wrote Trump.
The former president’s words hint at the potential fallout Joe Rogan might face from Trump supporters. But Rogan, host of one of the world’s most popular podcasts, is no stranger to controversy. He’s weathered storms before, from COVID-19 debates to LGBTQ+ issues. But tangling with a former president? That’s a new one, even for him.
The root of this political kerfuffle stemmed from Joe Rogan’s positive comments about RFK Jr. on his podcast. He called Kennedy “the only one that makes sense” and praised his approach to political discourse. These words apparently struck Trump’s nerves. It’s worth noting that Rogan claims he wasn’t endorsing Kennedy. He was just sharing his honest opinion. But in today’s charged political climate, even casual remarks can spark a firestorm.

Kennedy, not one to miss an opportunity, quickly responded to Rogan’s praise. He took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to express his gratitude. He praised Rogan’s priority to always keep substance over the person.
“From one “legitimate” guy to another, thank you, @JoeRogan, for always putting substance first,” wrote Kennedy Jr.
Kennedy’s response shows he understands the value of Rogan’s words. In today’s digital age, endorsements from influencers can sway voter opinions. And Rogan, with his massive following, is quite the influencer. This spat serves as a reminder that words carry weight in the world of politics, and even a podcast conversation can ripple into national news.
