"We're just being gaslit and lied to" - Joe Rogan pushes back against labeling Donald Trump a "dictator"

Joe Rogan doesn't subscribe to the narrative that Donald Trump would become a dictator if re-elected as US president.

With the US presidential elections fast approaching, many in the general public, especially those belonging to the Democrat camp believe America will be reduced to a dictatorship if the former POTUS finds his way back to the presidential chair.

However, as Hollywood star Dennis Quaid sees it, the United States needs a strong leader like Trump to deal with some of the more turbulent parts of the world. During episode #2189 of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, he said:

"I would cringe at soo much stuff that he said, but I think his heart was really in the right place. And not only that we need a really strong leader like that to deal with these as*****s that run the other world. There are some bad actors out there."

Agreeing with his guest, Rogan also chimed in snubbing public and media narratives that the 78-year-old would turn the US into a dictatorship:

"The wildest thing is people pretending that if he gets into office, he's going to become a dictator. As if he wasn't in office for four years and he was never a dictator. Like the whole thing is like, we're just being gaslit and lied to on a scale that I've never seen in my life before, to the point where it's CNN on television, saying that they support the news becomes a huge laugh, [or] that they just speak the news objectively."

When Joe Rogan made fun of "b*tt hurt" Donald Trump

Joe Rogan recently invited Donald Trump's ire as he suggested Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as a worthy presidential candidate.

After the podcaster spoke highly of 'RFK' during a recent episode of JRE, the former president hit back at him on social media, claiming that Rogan would be booed during future UFC events.

The UFC sportscaster addressed the issue during a recent live recording of the KILL TONY podcast in New York. He employed a light-hearted jibe at fellow comedian Shane Gills who had dressed up as Trump for the segment, saying:

"I knew you were b*tt hurt because I didn't endorse you, and I wasn't endorsing RFK."
