However, those times have changed, and Trump has become a beloved figure among the UFC fighters. Joe Rogan has talked about wanting a photo with Trump numerous times, but this time a fan captured a video of them together.
Joe Rogan returned to commentary duty after sitting out UFC 289 in Canada. Due to the commitment to his podcast and comedy career, Rogan does not travel out of the US for PPV events. Hence, he sat out of UFC 289 after appearing at UFC 287 and UFC 288. He joined regulars Jon Anik and Daniel Cormier on the commentary desk.
Even though Rogan stated that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis might be better suited for the Presidency, he did not hesitate to talk to Trump. The camo of DeSantis and Trump remains in a fierce battle over becoming the Republican nominee for the 2024 Presidential election. The JRE podcast may play a crucial role in the upcoming election, as Rogan has the power to influence a significant audience.
