Joe Rogan Makes It Official, Offers President Trump Last-Minute Endorsement

President Donald Trump has been amassing a wide array of political endorsements as he seeks a second term in the White House, including a few that came in the final hours of the election cycle.

One statement that sparked significant news coverage and social media attention came from podcaster and comedian Joe Rogan.

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.

Trump learned of the endorsement and delivered the news to a crowd at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Monday.

According to the New York Post:

“I have some more big news now. I’m just getting this right now,” the Republican nominee told his crowd of supporters. “So somebody that’s very, very respected asked me to do his show two weeks ago, and I said, ‘Why not?’”

“And to me, it’s very big because he’s the biggest there is, I guess, in that world by far … And his name is Joe Rogan and he’s never done this before. And it just came over the wires that Joe Rogan just endorsed me,” Trump said.

“That’s so nice. And he doesn’t do that,” he added. “He’s not a person that does endorsements, but he did an endorsement. So I just want to say, Joe Rogan, Elon Musk and Megyn [Kelly], thank you very much.”

Rogan previously endorsed liberal Democrat Bernie Sanders in 2020.

During the current election cycle, he said he was “a fan” of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. before the independent candidate dropped out of the race and endorsed Trump.

Clemente Jr. joined Trump on stage in Pittsburgh where he praised the former commander-in-chief.

“For the first time, I had to take a step forward. It is very important for me to support this man, because I believe tomorrow is a change of time,” Clemente Jr. said. “My father, the name Clemente, what it means is goodwill and unity. I believe that your team is going to bring it all home. I believe in everything that you stand for right now,” he told Trump.

Earlier Monday, Randi Mahomes, the mother of star Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, endorsed Trump during a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
