Celebrity podcaster Joe Rogan expressed intense frustration with President Donald Trump's decision to escalate the war in Iran during a conversation with British right-wing politician Rupert Lowe.Despite previously endorsing Trump in 2024, Rogan criticized the president for breaking a key campaign promise to avoid new conflicts.
He argued that most Americans oppose the war, with only staunch Israel supporters backing it, and repeatedly used profanity to describe Trump's military actions.
The outburst followed Trump's announcement that a three-week ceasefire with Iran had ended, marking another instance of Rogan's criticism of the administration's Iran policy.Rogan had previously called the war 'insane' and claimed people felt 'betrayed' after its onset.
The incident contrasts with their earlier collaboration at an Oval Office press conference where Trump announced eased restrictions on psychoactive medications.Rogan's public dissent highlights growing tensions between the celebrity and the president, reflecting broader debates about U.S.foreign policy and military engagement.
