Podcaster Joe Rogan threw his weight behind independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over either of the major party candidates on Thursday, making the online influencer known for dabbling in conspiracies one of Kennedy’s most notable endorsements.
Rogan said on his video podcast “The Joe Rogan Experience” that he views both Democrats and Republicans as perverting democratic norms.
“That’s just what they do. That’s politics. They do it on the left, they do it on the right,” Rogan said. “They gaslight you, they manipulate you, they promote narratives, and the only one who is not doing that is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.”
Rogan added that he’s a “fan” of Kennedy.
“He’s the only one that makes sense to me,” he said. “He’s the only one — he doesn’t attack people, he attacks actions and ideas, but he’s much more reasonable and intelligent. I mean, the guy was an environmental lawyer and he cleaned up the East River. He’s a legitimate guy.”
Both Kennedy and Rogan have been critical of vaccines, specifically the COVID-19 vaccine, and spread conspiracies about its efficacy.
Rogan’s show, exclusive to Spotify, is consistently one of the most popular podcasts in the world. He conducts long, wide-ranging interviews with a variety of guests, including comedians, athletes, scientists, among others.
