Description

Sam Stein and Tim Miller give their takes on Joe Rogan’s surprisingly blunt reaction to Donald Trump’s war with Iran. Rogan says many supporters feel “betrayed” after Trump campaigned on ending “stupid wars,” only to launch major strikes that have now killed U.S. troops and raised fears of wider conflict. Sam and Tim dig into Rogan’s political evolution and why this moment is so uncomfortable for the MAGA-friendly podcast world. After years of embracing Trump as the anti-war outsider, figures in the “podcast bro” ecosystem are now confronting the possibility that they misjudged him.

Trump didn't betray Joe Rogan, he has always been who he is. It's Joe Rogan who showed lack of better judgement about candidate's character.

Every time Lucy pulls the football away, Joe Rogan is surprised and feels utterly betrayed.

Joe, you weren't betrayed. You were duped. Big difference.

It's almost like electing a pathological liar is a bad idea.

He just had RFK on, don't kid yourself. Rogan is still firmly in the MAGA camp.

Agree! We were better off when the stupid people didn't care enough to have an opinion.
