Podcast giant Joe Rogan may have waited until the 11th hour to give his full-throated endorsement to President-elect Donald Trump, but he said on a recent episode that he had decided weeks earlier that he had to get involved.

Rogan explained to guests Shane Gillis, Ari Shaffir, and Mark Normand that even though his general assessment was that “politics are gross,” there was one thing that Vice President Kamala Harris did that convinced him he couldn’t simply sit the 2024 presidential election out.

“I wanted to stay out of the presidential election s*** because it’s so gross,” Rogan began — but than he said that when Harris chose Governor Tim Walz (D-MN), he felt like he had to say something.

“This is so nuts. When that Tim Walz guy — it’s so nuts that guy was going to be the vice president. You’re telling me this whole thing is fake then. You’re telling me that you don’t care if someone is a liar? You don’t care if they lie about their military rank, where they served, you don’t care if they lie about being an assistant, you don’t care if they lie about Tiananmen Square? There are just too many things,” he said.

“This is so crazy. You would get fired if you were an assistant manager at a f***ing oil change company. Jiffy Lube would fire you!” Rogan continued.

Walz was accused of adding embellishing details to his military record — prompting Vice President-elect and Marine Corps veteran JD Vance to accuse him of “Stolen Valor” — as well as lying about where he was when students clashed with the Chinese government at Tiananmen Square. He also repeatedly suggested that he and his wife had relied on in vitro fertilization to have children when they had not, among other things.
