Joe Rogan shared his shock reaction to Donald Trump’s victory as the 47th president of the United States after endorsing the former president following his bombshell podcast interview.
Trump pulled off an astounding political comeback and regained the White House after being declared the winner of the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
The podcaster, 57, took to X in early Wednesday morning and shared a video of Trump taking the stage following the big announcement.
He captioned the post: ‘WHOLE. LEE. S***,’ as he watched the Republican’s family gather on stage with him.
Shortly after having Trump on his podcast about two weeks ago, young voters revealed that the appearance made them vote for the now president.
The three-hour episode, in which Rogan and Trump spoke about UFOs, the John F. Kennedy assassination files, the border and healthy food in the U.S. – amassed an astounding 300,000 views in just the first 30 minutes.
When Rogan asked Kamala Harris to join him on the podcast, he revealed she ‘only wanted to do an hour’, ultimately refusing to appear over scheduling conflicts.

The podcaster, 57, took to X in early Wednesday morning, captioning a video of the moment Trump won, as he said: : ‘WHOLE. LEE. S***’
At the beginning of the interview, Trump told Rogan he doesn’t know why the media is ‘so obsessed’ with him, as Rogan revealed it’s because he says ‘crazy s***.’
The pair also spoke about the first assassination attempt on Trump, as he showed the podcaster the ‘tiny little mark’ on his ear after being grazed by a bullet in Butler, Pennsylvania in July.
‘It zicked right there,’ the 78-year-old said.
‘It healed up pretty f***ing good’, Rogan responded.
‘Yeah it’s pretty good,’ Trump replied.
They also discussed Trump’s thoughts on Harris, as said there’s ‘something wrong’ with her as Rogan asked him about her comments comparing him to Hitler.
He also labeled her a ‘very low IQ person’, adding that he’s ‘for taking [cognitive] tests.’
Just days after Trump joined Rogan on the show, the podcaster revealed that he reached out to Harris to come on as well.

He revealed it was ‘very difficult’ as the Vice President failed to follow in Trump’s steps.
He added that he had insisted that the interview take place in his studio, but had been flexible on timings, Mediaite reported.
‘You could look at this and say, “Oh, you’re being a diva”,’ Rogan said. ‘But she had an opportunity to come here when she was in Texas. I literally gave them an open invitation.
‘I said, “Any time.” I said, “If she’s done at 10 o’clock, we’ll come back here at 10 o’clock.” I go, “I’ll do it at nine in the morning, I’ll do it at 10 p.m., I’ll do it at midnight if she’s up, if she wants to drink a Red Bull and f**king party on.”.’
He said that Harris’ team reached out shortly after he announced Trump would be appearing.
‘But it was very difficult to tie it down,” Rogan explained. ‘They wanted to travel. See, the thing is, you can’t like — if I go somewhere, then there’s gonna be other people in the room.
‘And they want to control a lot of things, I’m sure, according to the interview on Fox. Like, people are waving him off. That’s a distraction.
‘My whole goal with her and with him is just talk. Just have a conversation like a human being. You find out things about people. You get a sense of them, at least.’
Elon Musk, who has continuously thrown his support at Trump throughout the presidential race, then joined Rogan for an almost three hour interview on Monday.
He explained he hoped to use the interview as a means of getting to know the candidates better.
Elon Musk, who has continuously thrown his support at Trump throughout the presidential race, then joined Rogan for an almost three hour interview on Monday.
Musk made the case for voters to turn out and vote for Donald Trump suggesting that if they did not, Republicans might not have another chance to be in power.
He suggested Kamala Harris’ policies would lead to so many illegal migrants being allowed to stay in the country and given U.S. citizenship there would forever be a bias towards the Democrats across the country for decades to come.
‘I think this is the last election. If Trump doesn’t win, this is the last election.’
Rogan seemed stunned by the argument before asking him if the argument was nothing more than a conspiracy theory, Musk, who has been actively campaigning for Trump in the final weeks, only dug deeper.
‘The more you look at it, the more obviously it is true. [These illegals] haven’t just walked across the border, they’ve been flown in airplanes to the swing states,’ Musk said.
Rogan then officially endorsed Trump as president and said: ‘If it wasn’t for him (Musk) we’d be f***ed,’ Rogan wrote on X just hours before the polls opened.
Kamala Harris’ decision to shun Joe Rogan’s podcast cost her at least one swing state voter, MSNBC revealed
‘He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you’ll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way.
‘For the record, yes, that’s an endorsement of Trump. Enjoy the podcast.’
It’s a drastic reversal from the podcaster’s 2020 support for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., a self-proclaimed democratic socialist who helped develop the Green New Deal.
On election day, a voter in the crucial swing state of Arizona said Harris’ decision to shun an appearance on Rogan’s show drove him to vote for Trump.
The unidentified Arizona State University student told MSNBC’s Gadi Schwartz that the VP’s refusal to appear on the popular show ended up deciding his vote.
‘We’ve actually been hearing a lot of talk about the Rogan podcast,’ Schwartz said. ‘A little while ago we were talking to two guys.
‘One of them said he was on the fence, when Kamala did not go on the Joe Rogan podcast that was what influenced his vote, he ended up voting for Trump.
‘He said he was open to listening to Kamala on the podcast and when she didn’t, not necessarily all the issues. She didn’t seem like a real person because she couldn’t talk for an extended period of time. ‘
Schwartz said many of the young men he’d spoken to had also been put off Kamala Harris and the Democrats by ‘feelings of attacks on masculine identity.’
