Joe Rogan makes his political leaning crystal clear after allegedly swaying election in Donald Trump's favor: "I'm left on almost everything"
Joe Rogan recently weighed in on his personal political beliefs in the aftermath of the 2024 U.S. Presidential elections. Rogan notably endorsed Donald Trump over Kamala Harris, with many believing that he may have swayed the election results in the real estate baron's favor.
Rogan is among the most popular podcasters in the world today and is widely considered one of the most influential voices in contemporary media. While he's always maintained that he's politically neutral with a socially left-wing lean, he surprised many by deciding to back Trump in the 2024 elections.
While many speculated that Rogan may have turned conservative, he recently dismissed such claims and maintained that he's still left-wing on most social issues.
In an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast with Jeff Dye (JRE #2229), Rogan outlined his views on politics today and said:
"If someone comes along from the left that is an objective sensible person that's making sense on, like immigration, foreign policy, then I'm still left. I'm still the same person. Socially, I'm left on almost everything... The hard right is just like the hard left. The crazy f**ks that are out there on the fringes, they define the left and define the right for everybody."
Rogan continued:
"You define the right by, like, white supremacists. You define the left by Antifa. Most people are right here [in the middle]. Most people are, like, I just want rules and law and everybody be kind and healthy and a prosperous society and no pollution... It's the bullies on both sides. The people that just wanna use a group and have a bunch of people all together and attack."

Joe Rogan shares his two cents on the abortion debate in America
Joe Rogan recently shared his thoughts on a particularly divisive subject of discussion in America. The famous podcaster weighed in on the issue of abortion and the raging debate around it.
Speaking to fellow comedian Dave Smith in an episode of his podcast (JRE #2225), Rogan defended women having bodily autonomy and urged voters to consider matters that were more important to the nation. He said:
"I'm not saying you shouldn't be able to do it. I'm not a woman. I should not have the choice of what a woman can [or] can't do with their body. I would not want a man, if I was a woman, to tell me what the f**k I can do with my body."
Rogan continued:
"Worry about important sh*t. Don't worry about what a guy wants to get a vasectomy or, way worse, a woman wants to do if she wants to get an abortion. It's not your f**king business."
