I listened to 170 hours of Joe Rogan — he hasn’t turned on Trump

Joe Rogan’s recent admission that the news cycle has left him “overwhelmed” and a short clip in which he likened ICE to the Gestapo have led some to suggest he may be souring on the president he once championed. That viral moment, however, comes from a three‑hour interview and does not capture the tone of his wider conversations.

Across many episodes Rogan has framed ICE’s presence as a response to alleged fraud, defended agents’ anonymity, warned that ICE risks being seen as villains, and expressed sympathy for officers. He described the killing of Renee Nicole Good as “unfortunate” while also calling her behaviour “crazy” and speculating she was an agitator—sentiments that sit uneasily with the idea that the episode left him sleepless with moral outrage.

Illegal immigration as a tool to “hijack” democracy is a recurring theme on his show. Rogan has repeatedly raised the claim that Democrats are using migration to alter representation, a line he has reinforced in interviews and conversations with a range of guests.
