Joe Rogan disagrees with one of Donald Trump's most controversial post-presidency statements but says that "it'll be fun if it happened"
Joe Rogan has disagreed with what many believe to be one of Donald Trump's most polarizing statements after becoming U.S. president. Nevertheless, the UFC color commentator suggested that it'd be fun if that particular plan materialized.
Trump has often been accused of making incendiary assertions about other countries. Many have lately alleged that Trump is facilitating a trade war against Canada. Also, Trump notably proposed that Canada could become the 51st state of the U.S.
On a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan hosted fellow comedian Michael Kosta. The UFC commentator opined that the U.S. should "become friends with Canada again." Rogan also said that Canada shouldn't be America's 51st state:
"So I don't know what's happening with their politics, but I just want America and Canada to get along. I think it's ridiculous ... And I don't really think they should be our 51st state. Yeah. I said it. It'll be fun if it happened. It will be fun."
Rogan further gave his take on Trump's hints that America could take control of Greenland. He said:
"I think Greenland's more accessible. We'll probably buy that. Want a 51st state? It's Greenland. Plus, if global warming is real -- 'cause of all digging oil and all that sh** -- it'd be good to have a cold spot to eventually warm up."

"I say we let Mexico in too."
