Podcaster Joe Rogan announced his support of former President Trump in an X post Monday night.
After interviewing billionaire Trump supporter Elon Musk on «The Joe Rogan Experience,» the podcaster officially endorsed Trump while telling people to listen to the Musk interview.
«The great and powerful @elonmusk. If it wasn’t for him we’d be f—ked. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you’ll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way. For the record, yes, that’s an endorsement of Trump. Enjoy the podcast,» Rogan wrote.

Trump responded to news of the endorsement live on stage in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
«Thank you, Joe. That’s so nice. And he doesn’t do that. He doesn’t do that stuff. And he tends to be a little bit more liberal than some of the people in this room,» Trump said. «I had a lot of fun, he was amazing and it was a 3-hour interview.»
«He’s not a person that does endorsements but he just did an endorsement so I just want to thank Joe Rogan that’s fantastic,» he added.
Trump’s vice presidential pick JD Vance appeared on an episode of «The Joe Rogan Experience» released Thursday, less than a week after the former president’s marathon interview on the show.
Rogan came away impressed with Trump after the interview, noting that the former president is authentic and funny. He also marveled that he could hold a focused interview for over three hours.
«He’s got this ability to just keep going. This is what’s crazy, like the podcast was three hours long. The guy didn’t pee before the podcast. He didn’t pee after the podcast. He just left,» the host said.

Rogan had been in talks to have Vice President Kamala Harris on, but plans were scrapped because the campaign demanded the interview only be an hour and that he travel to meet her, instead of recording at his podcasting studio in Austin, Tex.
