Joe Rogan knocked Democrats in a recent podcast episode, accusing the party of failing to connect with voters even after President Trump’s victory last fall.
“They’re not course correcting at all. Ya know, they’re saying stupid s—. It’s all nonsense,” Rogan said.
“Their understanding of social media and the dynamics that you set up by having completely state-controlled mainstream media where they only said the narratives that you guys wanted,” he added. “They all said it in step so you could watch different programs repeat the exact-same words, exact-same phrases.”
The popular podcaster’s comments were first highlighted by Mediate.
Rogan, a onetime Trump critic, endorsed him before the 2024 election and hosted him for a wide-ranging interview just days before the election. The comedian and former game show host has sparked controversy with his comments on modern medicine, immigration and politics.
Trump’s appearance on Rogan’s show came amid a wider effort to rebuff traditional news outlets in favor of social media influencers, podcasters and content creators.
Rogan earlier this week called outlets like The New York Times, The Washington Post and others “propaganda” for Democrats and said “that’s why the internet rose. It’s not because there was some sort of a f—– right-wing conspiracy, heavily funded. No, you guys suck.”
