Rogan Defends DeSantis From Trump’s Name Calling: DeSantis’ ‘Success In Florida Is Pretty Unparalleled’

Joe Rogan, podcast host, said that Donald Trump tried to brand Florida governor. Ron DeSantis, who is nicknamed “Ron the Snake,” would fail because the governor’s “success in Florida is pretty unparalleled.”

Rogan highlighted a tweet from Trump that stated that he doesn’t spend much time thinking about nicknames to DeSantis.

“All of the Fake News is reporting that I spend large amounts of my time coming up with a good ‘nickname’ for Ron DeSanctimonious, who is obviously going to give the presidential ‘thing’ a shot,” Trump claimed. “They are all 100% wrong; I don’t even think about it — A very unimportant subject to me!!!”

Rogan’s guest observed that Trump was losing. “losing his touch” Rogan replied that it would be difficult for Trump to come up with nicknames for the Florida governor when he was trying to create them.

“Well, there’s not a good one that you can come up with for Ron,” Rogan said. “Because Ron, he’s too good with that base and his success in Florida is pretty unparalleled.”

Rogan, who has one of the most popular podcast in the world, appeals to a wide ranging audience of millions of listeners.

Rogan has spoken positively of DeSantis in the past when asked about potential GOP candidates for 2024.

“I think Ron DeSantis would work as a good president. I think, I mean, what he’s done for Florida has been admirable,” Rogan said last summer. “I feel like what he did for Florida, a lot of people gave him a lot of grief, but ultimately, he was correct. He was correct when it comes to like deaths. He was correct when it comes to protecting our vulnerable populations. He was correct in terms of distribution of monoclonal antibodies, and he was furious when the government tried to pull those, they were trying to pull very effective treatments.”
