Donald Trump suggests UFC fans will turn on Joe Rogan for praising RFK Jr.

Joe Rogan said nice things about Robert F. Kennedy Jr. – and boy, does it Donald Trump seems pissed off.

In fact, the GOP presidential candidate suggested Friday that UFC fans could turn on Rogan, a podcaster and mixed martial arts enthusiast, the next time he appears in a fight.

It all started when Rogan spoke about politicians on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” declaring that the independent White House candidate is “the only one that makes sense to me.”

“He doesn’t attack people. He attacks actions and ideas,” Rogan said on Thursday’s episode. “But he’s much more reasonable and intelligent.”

HAPPENING NOW: Right-wing extremist X rips Joe Rogan apart for ‘supporting’ Robert F Kennedy Jr. during his podcast.

The claim: Joe Rogan endorsed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as president.

His comments sent Trump supporters into meltdown mode, believing Rogan had actually endorsed Kennedy.

But a short time later, Rogan clarified on X, formerly Twitter, that this was not his intention:

For the record, this is not an endorsement. I’m the one saying that I like RFKjr as a person, and I really appreciate how he discusses things with courtesy and intelligence. I think we could use more of that in this world.

I also think Trump raises his fist and says… https://t.co/pzkHe9SKVS

Still, Trump wasn’t happy to hear Rogan speak glowingly of his rival. In one post on his Truth Social platform, he suggested that people can boo the podcaster “the next time he steps into the UFC ring.”

It remains to be seen whether Rogan will actually be booed: while he’s known for providing commentary at MMA fights, he’s not scheduled to do so at the UFC’s next pay-per-view event on August 17 , according to outlet MMA Fighting.

Of course, people had questions about the former president’s reaction to Rogan’s Kennedy rave.

Nothing says “I AM A LOSER” like Trump attacking Joe Rogan.

“It will be interesting to see how loud Joe Rogan gets BUED the next time he steps into the UFC ring???” Trump signed on to his Truth Social platform on Friday afternoon. “MAGA2024.”

One of the nation’s biggest purveyors of brain-eating worms, Joe Rogan, just supported Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who once declared in a deposition that a worm had eaten his brain. So they have a lot in common.

But Rogan wasn’t the only podcaster put on the spot over Kennedy.

After political commentator Tim Pool said on Friday that he voted for Kennedythe candidate reached out to thank him “for your confidence in me but above all for your steadfast defense of the Constitution and relentless love of our country.”

It landed Pool in an awkward position and jostled him clarify that he had just “tricked the haters” and actually intends to vote for Trump.

You are a good brother.

I trolled the haters but in all honesty I’m going to vote for Trump.

I hope you eventually get to be a part of his administration and help fight environmental toxins and big pharma https://t.co/X69eoY7Wy1
