The latest rejection from Joe Rogan didn't go down smoothly with Donald Trump's informal political advisor, Roger Stone.
Stone has thrown down the gauntlet, proposing a cage-style MMA match against the UFC commentator. In a candid interview with The Daily Beast, Stone revealed his motivation behind this challenge:
"The mere discussion of Donald Trump on a blockbuster podcast like Rogan builds a remarkable audience. Perhaps the only person bigger in the new media world than Rogan is Donald Trump and the whole idea that the two of them would be together at long last... it would be an incredible audience."
He added:
"I know I can definitely take him. I hit the heavy bag for an hour every Saturday.”
