Podcasting icon Joe Rogan has publicly endorsed Donald Trump for President during an episode featuring Elon Musk. Rogan shared a post on X, stating, āThe great and powerful @elonmusk.

If it wasn't for him we'd be fucked. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you'll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way.
For the record, yes, that's an endorsement of Trump.

At a Pittsburgh rally, Trump responded on stage, expressing his gratitude. "Thank you, Joe! That's so nice. And he doesn't do that. He doesn't do that stuff. And he tends to be a little bit more liberal than some of the people in this room," Trump remarked. "I had a lot of fun, he was amazing, and it was a 3-hour interview."
"He's not a person that does endorsements, but he just did an endorsement, so I just want to thank Joe Roganāthat's fantastic," Trump added.

Historically, Rogan has described himself as "socially liberal" and previously supported progressive figures such as Bernie Sanders. āIāve been liberal my whole life. I just look like a Republican. I like some violent things, and I have guns," he remarked in a 2019 conversation with Theo Von. However, Rogan appears to have warmed up to Trump after interviewing the former president earlier this Octoberāa conversation that has garnered over 45 million views on YouTube, despite claims of Big Tech shadow banning.
During that interview, Rogan highlighted growing discontent among younger Americans regarding "a lot of this woke bullsh*t." He noted, "Young people are tired of being yelled at and scolded... by people they think are mentally unstable dictating society's moral codes."
"The rebels are Republicans now,ā Rogan added. āIf you want to be punk rock, if you want to defy the system, you're a conservative. And itās wild to seeāliberals now support silencing dissent and online censorship, even proposing regulations on free speech and the First Amendment. Itās absurd."
