Joe Rogan Says Trump 'F---ed It Up' on Iran War as 11 Million Hear Podcast

2 articles · Updated · USA TODAY · Jul 10

Summary

  • Hours after U.S. and Iran resumed strikes following a nearly three-week ceasefire, Joe Rogan said Trump may have “f---ed it up” by starting the war in February.
  • Rogan argued the conflict violates a core Trump pledge to avoid new wars, saying most Americans are “horrified” and that only “supporters of Israel” see it as a good idea.
  • About 11 million listeners and downloads per episode give Rogan’s criticism unusual reach, with “The Joe Rogan Experience” ranked Spotify’s top global podcast and No. 1 on Apple Podcasts.
  • The remarks extend Rogan’s uneven relationship with Trump: he recently praised the White House UFC event but has also attacked ICE tactics, Trump’s handling of Epstein files and other actions.
