Joe Rogan Backtracks On RFK Jr. ‘Endorsement’

[Collection]Kelen McBreen'I’m not the guy to get political information from,' writes Rogan.

After a segment of his podcast went viral and stirred major controversy this week, Joe Rogan cleared the air in an X post Friday.

Discussing the 2025 election cycle, Rogan said he thinks Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is “the only one” not gaslighting and manipulating voters.

“That’s politics,” he said. “They do it on the left. They do it on the right. They gaslight you, they manipulate you. They promote narratives. The only one who’s not doing that is Robert F. Kennedy Jr. I am a fan [of RFK Jr]. He’s the only one that makes sense to me. He doesn’t attack people. He attacks actions and ideas. He’s much more reasonable and intelligent.”

The statement caused many people online to believe Rogan had delivered a tacit endorsement of Kennedy.

However, after backlash from some people in the MAGA base, Rogan issued a message clarifying his stance on the current election.

“For the record, this isn’t an endorsement,” he wrote. “This is me saying that I like RFK Jr. as a person, and I really appreciate the way he discusses things with civility and intelligence. I think we could use more of that in this world. I also think Trump raising his fist and saying ‘fight!’ after getting shot is one of the most American fucking things of all time. I’m not the guy to get political information from. If you want that from a comic, go to comic Dave Smith. He actually knows what he’s talking about.”

The situation appears similar to a recent controversy surrounding Kyle Rittenhouse, who took a sharp U-turn and decided to support Donald Trump after being railed online for stating he wasn’t going to vote for the 45th President.
