Previously, in 2022, Rogan had stated he would never have Trump on his show and was &#8220;not interested in helping him.&#8221; Though, Rogan reversed his stance less than two weeks before the 2024 election, citing the multiple lawsuits and what he perceives as an attempt to unjustly convict Trump and diminish his reputation.<\/p>\n<p>Rogan condemned the public&#8217;s reaction to Trump&#8217;s conviction, warning that if the government can prosecute a wealthy former president, it could do the same to any citizen. He considers cheering such outcomes &#8220;insane&#8221; and highlights this as a risky precedent. Additionally, Rogan referenced the July 2024 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/amnesty-international-strips-aleksei-navalny-of-prisoner-of-conscience-status-for-decades-old-comments-on-immigration\/\" title=\"Amnesty International Strips Aleksei Navalny Of \u2018Prisoner Of Conscience\u2019 Status For Decades-Old Comments On Immigration\">assassination attempt<\/a> on Trump as another factor influencing his decision to interview the former president. He also criticized the media for treating Trump unfairly, accusing them of taking his words out of context and undermining democracy with the support of establishment money.<\/p>\n<p>Rogan&#8217;s interview with Trump, released in October 2024, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >gained critically importent attention online<\/a> with nearly 60 million views on youtube. The interview covered topics including Trump&#8217;s first administration mistakes, the assassination attempt, and extraterrestrial life. Rogan also attempted to interview Trump&#8217;s 2024 opponent, Vice President Kamala harris, but could not come to an agreement on conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Rogan&#8217;s comments reflect his concerns about legal and media treatment of Trump and the broader implications for American society and political discourse.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Joe Rogan condemns people &lsquo;cheering&rsquo; for Trump&rsquo;s pre-election legal battles<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2174751\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Podcast host <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/presidential\/3465226\/leaked-memos-kamala-harris-joe-rogan-podcast-distance-from-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Joe Rogan<\/a> said &ldquo;a bunch of things&rdquo; led to changing his stance against interviewing President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3471820\/trump-accuses-epstein-files-made-up-by-comey-obama-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a>, including the various legal battles Trump faced.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">In 2022, Rogan&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/1978458\/watch-joe-rogan-will-never-have-trump-on-podcast-not-interested-in-helping-him\/\" target=\"_blank\">said<\/a><\/span>  he&rsquo;d never have Trump on <em>The Joe Rogan Experience<\/em>, noting that he was &ldquo;not interested in helping him.&rdquo; However, he welcomed Trump on the show less than two weeks before the 2024 election.
