"‘You Said a Lot of Wild Things’: Joe Rogan Discusses Trump’s Unconventional Journey to the Presidency"

In a three-hour unscripted interview on Friday, top podcaster Joe Rogan discussed former President Donald Trump's distinctive journey to the White House in 2016, noting that it involved saying "a lot of wild stuff."

Trump remarked on how he naturally garnered more attention than others, which prompted Rogan to consider the role of establishment media in Trump's rise to prominence and eventual presidency. 

“Oh, I can definitely tell you. You said a lot of wild stuff,” Rogan chuckled. “You said a lot of wild stuff, and then CNN, in all their brilliance, by highlighting your wild stuff, made you much more popular.”

Rogan also pointed out that voters, fatigued by the usual scripted political speeches, were attracted to Trump’s perceived authenticity as a candidate.
