Joe Rogan claims Donald Trump has "become a wiser person in interviews," talks about the president-elect's occasional missteps

Joe Rogan explained why he believes Donald Trump has become "a wiser person in interviews."

On Nov. 5, Donald Trump was elected as the 47th President of the United States of America. The Republican candidate defeated his opponent, Kamala Harris (Democrat), in a landslide with the help of various high-profile individuals, including Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, Robert Kennedy Jr, and more.

Rogan recently released episode #2242 of The Joe Rogan Experience featuring Bert Sorin, the co-founder of Sorin Exercise Equipment. During their conversation, the beloved UFC commentator had this to say about Trump:

"I'm even excited about the way [Donald] Trump is doing interviews now. It's like he's become a wiser person in interviews. He did this interview with this lady from I think it was NBC, the recent one he did that was over an hour. Even when he was talking to her, he's saying things like, 'You would be so much better if you weren't biased.' That's what he said to her. It's like a kind way of saying it to her." [2:33-30-2:34:08]

Rogan followed up by saying:

"I think he's realizing that part of the problem is not just the resistance he faced but his reaction to the resistance. He still slips sometimes like he tweets out 'I hate Taylor Swift,' which I thought was hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing at that. I just ove irrational tweeters." [2:34:10-2:34:30]

Joe Rogan reacted to Alexandre Pantoja's win against Kai Asakura

On Dec. 7, UFC 310 took place inside the T-Mobile Arena, with the commentary team featuring Joe Rogan, Daniel Cormier, and Jon Anik. In the main event, flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja dominated promotional newcomer Kai Asakura, who joined the UFC after a successful career in RIZIN.

During the previously mentioned podcast with Bert Sortin, Rogan had this to say about Pantoja's performance:

"The thing you find out is the level at the UFC, as great as some of these guys look in other organizations, the level at the UFC, that's the peak. Those are the greatest fighters. There's no arguing about it. We saw that this past weekend because Alexandre Pantoja, who might be the best pound-for-pound fighter alive, he's the flyweight champion. He fought this dude Kai Asakaura from Japan who's a f*cking assassin. Pantoja just ate him alive." [1:14:55-1:15:24]

Alexandre Pantoja became the UFC flyweight champion with a split decision win against Brandon Moreno in July 2023. Since then, the Brazilian has etched his name into the promotion's history books with title defenses against Brandon Royval, Steve Erceg, and Kai Asakura.
