    Joe Rogan was actually a big Bernie Sanders supporter. It was only after Sanders betrayed the working class by first endorsing Hilary and then Biden that he and a lot of other people on the left turned to Trump. Sanders endorsing Hilary is what won Trump the election. If you actually listen to some of his podcasts he is very left wing economically, constantly talking about corporations screwing working class people and the world for the sake of profit. Contrary to poplar narratives Trump supporters are not actually all racist morons, they are just pissed at the system. It’s funny how things have turned into their opposite. In the 00s the Republicans were the pro-war and pro-censorship party. Now it’s the Democrats. As for the war in Ukraine, that’s not Joe Rogan’s own opinion, it’s actually the thesis of one of the smartest scholars in geopolitics, John Mearsheimer.
