Joe Rogan shared his shocked reaction to Donald Trump’s victory as the 47th President of the United States, after supporting the former president following his bombshell podcast interview.
Trump made an astonishing political comeback and regained the White House after being declared the winner of the 2024 US presidential election.
The podcaster, 57, joined X early Wednesday morning and shared a video of Trump taking the stage after the big announcement.
He captioned the post: “WELL. LEE. S***,” as he watched the Republican’s family join him on stage.
Shortly after Trump went on his podcast about two weeks ago, young voters revealed that their appearance made them vote for the current president.
The three-hour episode — in which Rogan and Trump talked about UFOs, John F. Kennedy’s assassination files, the border and healthy food in the US — racked up a whopping 300,000 views in just the first 30 minutes.
When Rogan asked Kamala Harris to join him on the podcast, he revealed that she “just wanted to do an hour,” and ultimately declined to appear due to scheduling conflicts.

The podcaster, 57, took to X early Wednesday morning and captioned a video of the moment Trump won, as he said: “VERY. LEE. S***’
Early in the interview, Trump told Rogan he doesn’t know why the media is “so obsessed” with him, as Rogan revealed because he says “crazy s***.”
The pair also discussed Trump’s first assassination attempt, when he showed the podcaster the “little mark” on his ear after being grazed by a bullet in July in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“It clicked right there,” the 78-year-old said.
“It healed pretty well,” Rogan replied.
“Yeah, it’s pretty good,” Trump replied.
They also discussed Trump’s thoughts on Harris saying there was “something wrong” with her when Rogan asked him about her comments comparing him to Hitler.
He also labeled her a “person with a very low IQ,” adding that he is “for taking” [cognitive] testing.’
Just days after Trump joined Rogan on the show, the podcaster revealed he reached out to Harris to join as well.
Early in the interview, Trump told Rogan he doesn’t know why the media is “so obsessed” with him, as Rogan revealed because he says “crazy s***.”
He revealed that it was “very difficult” because the vice president failed to follow Trump’s steps.
He added that he had insisted that the interview take place in his studio but had been flexible on the timings. Mediaite reported.
“You could look at this and say, ‘Oh, you’re a diva,’” Rogan said. “But she had the opportunity to come here when she was in Texas. I literally gave them an open invitation.
“I said, ‘Any time.’ I said, “If she’s done at ten, we’ll come back here at ten.” I say, “I’ll do it at nine in the morning, I’ll do it at ten at night, I’ll do it at midnight when she’s awake, when she wants to drink Red Bull and f**king at . “.’
He said Harris’ team reached out shortly after he announced Trump would appear.
“But it was very difficult to tie it,” Rogan explained. ‘They wanted to travel. Look, the thing is, you can’t like it – if I go somewhere, there will be other people in the room.
‘And they want to have a lot of things under control, I’m sure, according to the interview on Fox. For example, people wave him goodbye. That’s a distraction.
“My whole goal with her and with him is just to talk. Just have a conversation like a human. You discover things about people. At least you get an idea of it.’
Elon Musk, who has consistently voiced his support for Trump during the presidential race, then joined Rogan on Monday for a nearly three-hour interview.
He explained that he hoped to use the interview as a way to get to know the candidates better.
Elon Musk, who has consistently voiced his support for Trump during the presidential race, then joined Rogan on Monday for a nearly three-hour interview.
Musk advocated for voters to come out and vote for Donald Trump, suggesting that if they didn’t, Republicans might not have another chance at power.
He suggested that Kamala Harris’ policies would result in so many illegal immigrants being allowed to remain in the country and that, given American citizenship, a bias against Democrats would forever remain across the country for decades to come.
‘I think this is the last election. If Trump doesn’t win, this will be the last election.”
Rogan seemed baffled by the argument before asking him if the argument was nothing more than a conspiracy theory. Musk, who has been actively campaigning for Trump in recent weeks, only dug deeper.
‘The more you look at it, the more clearly it is true. [These illegals] Not only did they cross the border, they flew in planes to the swing states,” Musk said.
Rogan then officially endorsed Trump for president, saying, “If it wasn’t for him (Musk), we’d be damned,” Rogan wrote on X, just hours before the polls opened.
Kamala Harris’ decision to avoid Joe Rogan’s podcast cost her at least one swing state voter, MSNBC revealed
“He makes, in my opinion, the most compelling case for Trump you will hear, and I agree with him every step of the way.
‘For the record: yes, that is an expression of support for Trump. Enjoy the podcast.’
It’s a dramatic turnaround from the podcaster’s 2020 support of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., a self-described democratic socialist who helped develop the Green New Deal.
On Election Day, a voter in the crucial swing state of Arizona said Harris’ decision to avoid an appearance on Rogan’s show pushed him to vote for Trump.
The unidentified Arizona State University student told MSNBC’s Gadi Schwartz that the VP’s refusal to appear on the popular show ultimately determined his vote.
“We’ve actually heard a lot of talk about the Rogan podcast,” Schwartz said. ‘A while ago we were talking to two guys.
“One of them said he had doubts: when Kamala didn’t go on the Joe Rogan podcast, which affected his vote, he ended up voting for Trump.
He said he was open to listening to Kamala on the podcast and if she didn’t, not necessarily all the problems. She didn’t seem like a real person because she couldn’t talk for a long time. ‘
Schwartz said many of the young men he had spoken to had also been turned off by Kamala Harris and Democrats due to “feelings of attacks on male identity.”
