“I won him the election..” Joe Rogan reveals Donald Trump’s whisper to ears at packed UFC event

During the peak of the US elections, UFC veteran commentator Joe Rogan hosted Donald Trump on his popular podcast, attracting millions. This interview became a massive hit among the masses, sparking discussions across various platforms and solidifying Rogan’s influence in politics. As a result, a new relationship based on trust and respect developed between Rogan and Trump.

Rogan recently hosted a podcast featuring Gordon Ryan and former UFC fighter Brendan Schaub on his popular YouTube channel. During their conversation, they highlighted the iconic UFC 309 event held at Madison Square Garden. Trump was the main guest and went viral for his memorable meeting with Rogan. The commentator also revealed what the President told him back then.

Rogan’s podcast gave Trump a massive platform to connect with millions of listeners, increasing his visibility during the election period. The long-form conversation allowed Trump to share his unfiltered thoughts, shaping public perception and reinforcing his image among Rogan’s audience.

Rogan’s massive reach ensured Trump’s message resonated with independent voters who might not engage with traditional political media sources. Moreover, Democratic party candidate Kamala Harris had conditions to come on JRE, including not wanting to do a long-form content. This further boosted Trump, and his closest allies also came on the popular podcast.

Following Trump, other big faces from the Republican party such as Elon Musk and JD Vance also made visits on the podcast. This might have helped create a connection between the young voters and the political group in general. While UFC veteran such as Chael Sonnen didn’t value Rogan’s contribution, Trump understood the podcast’s importance.

The mastermind behind the Donald Trump and Joe Rogan podcast 

Joe Rogan‘s podcast is undoubtedly the biggest in the world. Clips from JRE are often circulated on social media with millions of views on each of them. The viral nature of the episode amplified Donald Trump’s presence on social media, generating discussions and boosting his relevance. This exposure strengthened Trump’s relationship with influential figures, putting him in a better position for his voters. 

Trump’s campaign strategically leveraged top podcasters, from Adin Ross to Theo Von, ensuring maximum reach across diverse audiences. All these podcasts gathered millions of views consistently on different platforms. After winning the election, Trump revealed the mastermind behind this media push. 

On the contrary, the Kamala Harris campaign failed to secure an appearance on Joe Rogan’s influential podcast before the election. According to Rogan, Harris’ team created difficulties and insisted on various interferences, making it impossible for the podcast to happen. As a result, the missed opportunity negatively impacted Harris’ election campaign, reducing her outreach to millions of potential voters.

Why Joe Rogan endorsed Donald Trump 

Historically, Joe Rogan has mentioned that he doesn’t support any particular political group. He was never inclined to invite Donald Trump to his podcast, but it changed. The UFC commentator supported Trump because he believed Trump represented a strong, independent leader who challenged mainstream political narratives.

He appreciated Trump’s willingness to speak openly, unfiltered, and directly to the public without relying on scripted political messaging. He criticized government overreach, believing Trump’s policies aligned more with personal freedoms, free speech, and limited censorship. Rogan also valued Trump’s economic strategies, which he felt promoted business growth, self-reliance, and financial stability for many Americans. 

Rogan was also invited to Donald Trump’s inauguration party in Washington DC a few months back. Many other celebrities and influencers were invited to the ceremony including Conor McGregor, Logan Paul, etc. However, Rogan didn’t necessarily like being there among all the politicians.
