Joe Rogan slammed MAGA supporters as “uninteresting and unintelligent.” Now, Vice President JD Vance has responded to the podcaster — and with a warning.
Podcaster and UFC commentator Joe Rogan was once a strong supporter of Donald Trump. He backed him before the 2024 election, but now, things appear to have shifted.
For example, Rogan has been openly critical of President Trump’s handling of the Epstein files and, more recently, of the war in Iran, which the radio personality condemned.
In one of his podcast episodes, Rogan said the conflict in Iran is “exactly the opposite of what we were told leading into this administration,” referring to Donald Trump’s campaign promise to end “unnecessary foreign wars.”
In the March 26 episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan shared his views on the president’s most loyal supporters.
Joe Rogan calls MAGA supporters “fing uninteresting and unintelligent”* While discussing the possibility of the U.S. going to war with Iran — something he called a “clusterfk” — the 58‑year‑old told Smith that he sees MAGA as “a movement of a bunch of f***ing dorks.”
“That phrase sucks… ‘Make America Great Again,’ and then it becomes a movement of a bunch of f***ing dorks, because a lot of them are dorks,” Rogan said.
Responding to those remarks, Vance said, “I think we have many, many fewer dorks than the far left, but everybody’s got some dorks. We love our dorks. We love our cool kids. We love anybody who wants to save the country.”
Host Benny Johnson also asked the 41‑year‑old about Rogan’s apparent criticism of the Trump administration, including the claim that “Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are better at deporting people than you.”
“I did not see Joe say this,” Vance replied. “I’m going to text Joe because that is definitely wrong.”
JD Vance responds He went on to argue that the Trump administration is “taking the flood of people that Joe Biden led into our country and getting them out.”
“The numbers from the Obama administration or any other administration, they weren’t doing a tenth of what we’re doing,” Vance continued. “So Joe is wrong on this.
“We’ve been the best administration in American history at deporting illegal aliens. The problem is we also followed the worst administration at letting them in. So there’s a lot of work to do.”
