White House Responds To Joe Rogan After He Calls Out Donald Trump For “Betraying” Americans

The White House isn’t letting Joe Rogan slide.

The White House has issued a response following Joe Rogan’s criticism of Donald Trump.

Rogan is a vocal Trump supporter and endorsed the 79-year-old during his second run at office in 2024. However, he reckons some citizens are feeling betrayed, with the President now on the warpath.

Trump has orchestrated several military operations since returning to office, including two in Iran.

According to Rogan, Americans likely feel like they’ve been played because Trump’s campaign was based on peace.

“I mean, this is why a lot of people feel betrayed, right? He ran on ‘no more wars’, ‘end these stupid, senseless wars’, and then we have one that we can’t even really clearly define why we did it,” he said.

The White House has been taking heat after posting a clip to social media mixing football highlights with airstrike footage. But they have fired back at Rogan, defending the President’s stance.

“President Trump is courageously protecting the United States from the deadly threat posed by the rogue Iranian regime — and that is as America First as it gets,” spokesperson Anna Kelly said in a statement, per NBC.

“The entire administration is working together to end Iran’s ability to possess a nuclear weapon, use or develop ballistic missiles, arm proxies, or use its now-defeated navy,” Kelly continued.

“The President has called attention to the Iranian regime’s threat prior to ever holding office, and his predecessors have talked about doing something for 47 years. Thankfully, President Trump had the courage to finally do something about it, and Iran is being completely crushed under the weight of the United States Military.”

Rogan described the Iran bombing as “nuts” while comparing it to Trump’s capture of former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.

“That one was, at least, clean. They go in, kidnap him, get him out. This one’s nuts,” he said.

While Maduro survived the attack on Venezuela in early January, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was not so fortunate.

Khamenei was killed in the strike on his compound in Tehran, though unfounded survival claims have been in circulation since the operation in late February.
