SUMMARY
- Joe Rogan and American MMA fighter Bo Nickal recently sat down for an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience.
- Rogan and Nickal rather sheepishly accepted their mix-up and instead blamed the media for the misinformation.
UFC commentator and popular podcast host Joe Rogan recently found himself with eggs on his face. While Rogan is not an out-and-out fan of former US President Donald Trump, he has expressed his support for him in the past. However, he put himself in an awkward situation when he incorrectly quoted Trump in a podcast.
Joe Rogan and American MMA fighter Bo Nickal recently sat down for an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience. During the podcast, Rogan and Nickal were ridiculing the current US president Joe Biden. The podcast host and the 27-year-old UFC fighter mocked Biden’s pre-conceived cognitive decline and quoted one of Biden’s old speeches. The comment was an incorrectly stated fact about the Revolutionary War.

Rogan, however, made a massive mix-up since it wasn’t Joe Biden who said that, but Donald Trump. The statement was about how America lost the Revolutionary War due to the lack of airports. However, one of Rogan’s crew members had to step in and correct the host and Bo Nickal that it was in fact said by Trump in 2019. Biden was mocking and quoting Trump’s words during a 2020 campaign rally.
Rogan and Nickal rather sheepishly accepted their mix-up and instead blamed the media for the misinformation. The clip, however, has gone viral on social media platforms and the fans have been left in splits. One fan even wrote, “This was satisfying to watch.” Nevertheless, this doesn’t indicate that Joe Rogan isn’t an ardent supporter of Trump, unlike a majority of people in the UFC.
Joe Rogan doesn’t want Donald Trump on his podcast
Despite Joe Rogan’s dislike for Joe Biden, Rogan has never welcomed Donald Trump on his podcast. Moreover, the 56-year-old even stated that he doesn’t support the 45th American president. Joe had once described Trump as a polarizing figure and labeled him as a threat to democracy. He has admitted that he is by no means a supporter of Donald Trump.
Quote- “I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, shape, or form. I’ve had the opportunity to have him on my show more than once, and I’ve said no every time. I don’t want to help him; I’m not interested in helping him” – Joe Rogan pic.twitter.com/5BLrnuNMWH

Therefore, the UFC commentator refuses to invite Donald Trump to his popular podcast. Rogan said, “I’ve had the opportunity to have him on my show more than once, I’ve said no every time.” In addition to this, Joe Rogan is firm in his stance of not helping Trump in any sort of way by inviting him on his show. However, he did reveal that the former president had previously expressed his desire to be invited to his podcast.
