Joe Rogan and Jorge Masvidal recently gave their two-cents about the state of the United States and current US President Joe Biden.

The UFC color commentator welcomed Masvidal onto episode #137 of the JRE MMA Show, where the pair discussed 'Gamebred's upcoming octagon return as well as a host of other topics. Amongst those were Joe Biden and the US's involvement in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

According to Masvidal, the United States' shouldn't be supporting Ukraine because it could potentially lead to World War III.

“No offense to the people that are going through that in Ukraine. Obviously, it sucks to be in war, especially against some massive thing like Russia, but I don’t think we should be poking a chest and they’re possibly starting a World War III."

He added:

“That’s what they say when a war from the other side happens, like we shouldn’t be going to war, but that’s the same thing they are going to do because that’s when trillions of dollars are made, every time we go to war, somebody’s gonna get rich. Maybe not me and you, but somebody’s getting rich."

In response, Rogan admitted that the situation is "terrifying" because Biden is a Democrat, who he believes is usually against the need for war. He stated:

“It’s f**king terrifying. It’s terrifying to me that the left are the ones that are behind this, encouraging it, when the left was always anti-war."

The two MMA personalities further discussed the financial aid that the US president has granted Ukraine. According to the latest figures from the Council on Foreign Relations, the US has directed over $75 billion to assist Ukraine.

In regards to those figures, the JRE host couldn't help but feel some of the money should have been used to help improve American cities such as Baltimore and Detroit. Joe Rogan said:

"Do you know how much money they could have spent fixing up places like Baltimore and Detroit. It could be paradise. They don't care about any of those places."

Masvidal added his two-cents by stating:

"They don't care about them. It's just a slogan. It's just bullsh*t."

Along with plenty of other Americans, Joe Rogan and Jorge Masvidal are worried that World War III may be started by the USA aiding Ukraine. The last World War lasted from 1939 to 1945, with an estimated death toll of over 50 million people.

"It's just not the same place...COVID killed that place. COVID and the governor, the governor and the mayor, they just f***ed that place to death...Crime goes up, they let people out of jail, crime continues to go up. It's a mess. You've got that district attorney in LA, he's a monster.”

Masvidal revealed that he had recently taken a trip to LA and couldn't believe what the state looked like now:

"It's very scary. ... I was like there like eight weeks ago. It's a different zombieland now."
