Is Donald Trump going to seem on the extremely common Joe Rogan podcast earlier than the election? Elon Musk appears to suppose so, and he would know. He has appeared on the present a couple of instances and is aware of Rogan very effectively.
It’s type of wonderful that Trump hasn’t already been on the podcast, when you consider it.
It will be nice for Trump to do it contemplating the attain Rogan has. Some episodes of his present have been downloaded and seen 30 million instances or extra on YouTube.
Musk’s prediction that Trump will do the present occurred when Zero Hedge published this story:
Joe Rogan Has 25 Days To Interview Donald Trump
Because the calendar has turned from 2022 to 2023, and now to 2024 and shortly to 2025, Rogan has more and more expressed objections to the far-left political motion in the USA. He has lamented the idiocy of the far-left with friends like Elon Musk and Bret Weinstein. He even moved from California to Texas, partially motivated by the path the state of California was taking. However as we method probably the most consequential elections of our lifetimes, Rogan has held agency in his resolve to not interview former President Donald Trump.
For some motive, I don’t purchase the angle that Rogan is harboring some private objection to Trump and simply “doesn’t need to assist him”, as he informed Lex Fridman final yr. Rogan is cordial with him when he sees him at UFC occasions, and he’s continually speaking about him with different friends in a approach that sounds at the very least as if he can abdomen speaking to him.
I believe there’s an opportunity that Rogan’s motivation for not interviewing Trump years in the past was that he didn’t need to take care of the blowback from the left, and doubtlessly from advertisers and Spotify. That’s comprehensible.
However these days are lengthy gone. Trump has turn out to be as mainstream as ever, and the complete world is aware of his schtick by now, so there aren’t going to be any shock outrageous moments by bringing Trump on the platform. Trump has lately gone on different podcasts, like Lex Fridman and Theo Von, and had good, humorous, cordial interviews and discussions. Rogan has to appreciate that the Presidential race is now simply Harris and Trump. There’s no RFK Jr., there’s no Bernie Sanders — and there’s virtually no extra time to waste. It’s now or by no means.
The story was then shared on Twitter/X:
