Donald Trump's claims on election fraud during his time on The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE) podcast have sparked widespread criticism across social media.
Earlier this week, JRE fans were treated to a surprise as the former POTUS made his first-ever appearance on the podcast. With election day fast approaching, one particular instance during the almost three-hour segment seems to have garnered attention.
At one point, Trump made accusations about the Democratic camp of indulging in fraud during the 2020 presidential elections.
The 78-year-old claimed that proper procedures were not adhered to while facilitating provisions for early voting and time extensions. He also believes some of the ballots were tampered with, while others were outright fake.

"Trump is a bullsh*tter's bullsh*tter - and his demented arrogance makes him think no one can see it."
@jeffreymlevy lamented that Rogan would still be voting for the former US president:
"But Joe Rogan will still vote for Trump. They know he is bat-sh*t crazy and a pathological liar. Ask a simple question, 'If the election was rigged, why are all your "election integrity" lawyers disbarred, in prison, or have pled guilty to lying and other election crimes."
