Podcast host and comedian Joe Rogan officially endorsed Donald Trump Monday night in a post on X promoting his last podcast before Americans head to the polls; Rogan sat down with Elon Musk on Election Day Eve.
“The great and powerful @elonmusk. If it wasn’t for him we’d be fucked. 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 said in the X post for the episode.

Rogan’s endorsement comes less than two weeks after interviewing the former president.
From The New York Post:
The nonchalant endorsement comes after the podcast host interviewed the former president in an Oct. 25 episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” which has an estimated 14.5 million Spotify followers.
Trump suggested Rogan, 57, should back his presidential campaign during the nearly three-hour sit-down.
“He gave me the nicest endorsement,” Trump had said, referring to Musk, who endorsed the 45th president shortly after he was nearly assassinated at his Butler, Pa., rally in July.
“You should do the same thing, Joe, because you cannot be voting for Kamala. Kamala. You’re not a Kamala person. I know you,” Trump told the podcaster.
Rogan in 2022 said he was “not a Trump supporter in any way, shape or form,” but finally gave the Republican his support with less than 24 hours before Election Day.
Trump reacted to Rogan’s endorsement in a quick video posted to social media channels; Trump called it a “great honor.”
