In three hours on the Joe Rogan podcast, there was a lot of weaving between two UFC fans with discussions on whales, hoaxes, and life on Mars, oh my.
Trump said his biggest mistake was hiring not the best people in his first term.
He labeled them neocons, bad. and disloyal people, naming John Kelly who has said Trump has fascist tendencies. “A guy like Kelly, who was a bully but a weak person,” he said, and added John Bolton was “an idiot” but useful, and a “nutjob.”
Trump says he’s not a dictator, but maybe a mob boss?
On “Rocket Man” Kim Jong Un, he told the North Korean dictator to find a new hobby other than building nuclear weapons.
“I said: ‘Do you ever do anything else? Why don’t you go take it easy? Go to the beach, relax.
“I said: ‘You’re always building nuclear, you don’t have to do it. Relax!’ I said: ‘Let’s build some condos on your shore.’”
On Putin:
Of course, he said he talked to him all the time, and that he wouldn’t have gone into Ukraine.
“I said, ‘Vladimir, you’re not going in,’” he told Rogan. “I used to talk to him all the time.”
Rogan goes along with Trump on election interference, allowing him space to weave without evidence of anything.
Seems Trump’s case about election interference is based on the “lies” of the left, including Russian interference and Hunter Biden’s laptop. This is from the guy who rose to prominence as a candidate because of Barack Obama’s birth certificate.
Also Rogan: “I love this idea of you teaming up with Robert Kennedy.”
More important stuff:
Extraterrestial life?
“There’s no reason not to think that Mars and all these planets don’t have life,” Trump said. Rogan argued that the U.S. has had probes and rovers on Mars’ surface for decades. Scientists (wait, what do scientists know?) have not found direct evidence of life on Mars yet.
