Joe Rogan Jokes About Trump Running for California Governor

Podcaster Joe Rogan recently made a playful remark about the possibility of former President Donald Trump becoming the governor of California after his presidency. He suggested that it could be one of the funniest political moves ever.

During an interview with Triggernometry hosts Frances Foster and Konstantin Kissin, Rogan noted that many societal changes and policies implemented during the pandemic now seem extreme compared to the past. He shared a conversation with a friend who decided to leave Los Angeles, expressing frustration with the changes in the city. “Everyone’s gone crazy,” his friend said, reflecting on the effects of the pandemic and the Black Lives Matter protests. Rogan himself, having previously lived in California, has often criticized its leadership.

He likened the current social climate to a form of “global warming,” humorously suggesting it might be time for people to seek a change of scenery. “The weather looks bad right now. It’s the worst,” he stated.

Kissin added that the continuous outflow of people from California highlights broader issues, mentioning that even stepping outside LAX can feel like a slice of paradise, yet many are choosing to leave. “They made it so bad that people literally pack their bags and leave paradise,” he noted.

Rogan continued, jokingly proposing that if Trump were to actually run for governor, it would become a historic comedic moment. “If an 82-year-old man walked into the office of the governor of California, it would be one of the funniest things ever,” he remarked, imitating Trump and emphasizing that this potential scenario could be fascinating to watch.

In conclusion, both hosts shared a sense of intrigue about the idea and what it would mean for California’s future. Whether or not it seems realistic, the speculation certainly provides a humorous lens through which to view the political landscape.
