The podcaster said Kennedy was the only candidate who made sense to him. “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 cleaned up the East River. He’s a legitimate guy.”
Rogan has a huge audience with more than 14.5 million listeners on Spotify alone, which earned him a contract reportedly worth $250 million this year.
Trump was not happy about Rogan’s “support” for Kennedy Jr., posting: “It will be interesting to see how loudly Joe Rogan gets booed the next time he steps into the UFC ring??? MAGA2024.” Rogan is a UFC commentator and often enters the ring for post-fight interviews.
Joe Rogan then said that he didn’t really support RFK Jr. He just said that he liked him as a person.
“To be clear, this is not an endorsement. I’m just saying that I like RFKjr as a person and I really appreciate the way he discusses things politely and intelligently. I think we could use more of that in this world. I also think Trump raising his fist and shouting “Fight!” after being shot is one of the most American things ever. I’m not the guy you get political information from. If you want that from a comedian, go to
@ComicDaveSmith. He really knows what he’s talking about,” said Joe Rogan.
