0:04Joe Rogan:One of the main reasons we're going through this onslaught of daily abuse by our federal government to the electorate, in my opinion, the top reason is that Merrick Garland did not do his job as attorney general and try Donald Trump expeditiously, quickly, fairly with all of the evidence, which we all know he funded and organized and was the instigator of January 6th. but he didn't do that. And I could talk about it forever, but also a lot of men in new media propped this guy up. They saw how he treats women. They saw the incompetence of the first administration. They saw January 6th, like a toddler that pitched a fit that wanted a bunch of rubes to go hang Mike Pence that didn't want to follow the rules.

0:54Joe Rogan:And somehow they were like, yeah, this is our tough guy. And one of these guys that was so conned is Joe Rogan, one of the most successful, wealthiest podcasters in the world. Why it takes some people such a long time to see the obvious, I'll never understand. But needless to say, they're all going through a lot of stuff right now. And they're realizing in 2026, March of 2026, that Trump might be a liar and a con man. play the clip.

1:24Donald Trump:It seems so insane based on what he ran on. I mean, this is why a lot of people feel betrayed, right? And he ran on no more wars and these stupid senseless wars. And then we have one that we can't even really clearly define why we did it. Okay.

1:42Joe Rogan:A lot of people feel betrayed in March, on March 11th of 2026. That's just stunning to me. It's stunning that it takes so long for people to see the obvious.

1:57Donald Trump:You know, what's interesting to me is everybody in New York City that had dealt with Trump their entire lives knew that he was a con man. And then you had the evidence of his failing businesses. I mean, he ran on, I'm such a great businessman. He bankrupted six times. He bankrupted casinos. All of this information was readily available that he, in fact, everything he touches turns to dog shit. And that's what he's doing to the United States government, democracy, foreign relations, the whole nine. Yeah.

2:34Joe Rogan:And I think we need to, there's a lot of talk, people that know that Trump's economy and saying, we need to offer these people an off ramp. We need to be a safe place for them to land. And I'm just not really into that. Like, welcome to the resistance if you're here, but I'm not going to coddle you and explain, oh, it's okay that you couldn't see the obvious. Like we need to demand better of the electorate. Like we need to promote people that are able to use critical thinking skills in real time. I think it was the Washington Post that had an ongoing lie tally during Trump 1.0. And we were like at 40 ,000 lies.

3:14Joe Rogan:And then just January 6th in and of itself, the Helsinki incident, not to mention everybody that worked with him in Trump 1.0, conservative, right-wing neocons, come out of that. I think it was Rex Tillerson that said he's a fucking idiot. Everybody that worked with him, with the exception of Stephen Miller, came out of that talking about how dangerous, Nazi-esque, fascistic, and incompetent he was. And so obviously, there is already a huge blowback happening in the electorate right now. And Marjorie Taylor Greene's seat, this is really interesting. So this is like MAGA thumper Georgia, right?

3:59Joe Rogan:I mean, like they elected her, which I understand that electorate because Oklahoma is no better. And so here are the results. And it looks like this is heading to a runoff, advancing to a runoff, Democrat Sean Harris with 39.9 % of the vote against Clayton Fuller with 34.2 % of the vote. So this is why you see the Trump regime going bananas about the election, the upcoming midterms. And we know from January 6, his default setting is to cheat, disrupt, assassinate his vice president, or rile up other people to do it so he can be like, I didn't know. So that's really interesting because we all know just historically in midterms, the party that is not in power wins.

4:59Joe Rogan:There's kind of a blowback to the status quo because American policies are so incremental and leave so many behind and both parties favor corporations. But this is set to be a blue bath. I don't want to say blood bath because of the association with blood and red, but it looks like it's really teeing up to be just a mammoth majority for the Democrats in Congress. And so no wonder they're already trying to cheat. Well, you know, Trump all, you know, when he got beat on election night, when Zoran won, Virginia governor, New Jersey governor all went blue.

5:39Donald Trump:He was like, well, I wasn't on the ballot. And so the response is we're going to put Trump on the ballot because everybody rolls out for Trump when he's on the ballot. And he just made a post over the last week or so. If I endorse a candidate, it's virtually a lock for them to win. And so what you see here is he is losing grip on the Republican Party in real time. And I'm here for it. I think now that we're going to run off, I would be extremely surprised if the Democrat won. But between now and the runoff, how much more stuff is he going to break? And how many more soldiers are going to die? How many how much prices are going to go up?

6:21Donald Trump:I mean, we still have a lot of time for him to fuck more shit up.

6:25Joe Rogan:Oh, I don't think there's any question he's going to. But here's what's interesting to me about all of this. When you look at polling of Republicans, they are very unified in polling. They are a very unified force. There are fissures in the MAGA podcasters and the MAGA influencers because they're looking at their career. You know, what is their career going to look like in one year and two years? We've all seen this guy's health is completely declining. And so I think the component here is that one thing that Trump did is he got people that were first time voters to come out in these rural areas that voted.

7:04Joe Rogan:So without him being on the ballot at the top of the ticket and it being a midterm, I think that might be the disparity. Because when you look at like his polling within MAGA, this is why he thinks he's so popular because his aides are like, look at this. you're pulling at 90%. And nobody says this is just your base. Nobody tells him that. And so this guy, Donald Trump is, I'm always so fascinated at how stupid he is and how much he gets off the hook for being so stupid. Like Joe Biden was old and you could tell the physical manifestations of his aging. I saw it. You saw it. Jake Tapper wrote a whole book about it.

7:52Joe Rogan:He was absolutely hysterical, but it was obvious. I mean, I have to say it was very obvious. He had aged, he had slowed down, he was kind of shuffling his feet. And so the media was in a frenzy about it. But just the stupidity of Donald Trump, before we even get to the dementia, this is something that has fascinated me forever, that he doesn't understand the distinction between an insane asylum and a refugee seeking asylum. And he has been corrected. It has gone on and on. And he continues. This is just yesterday. Play the clip.

8:27Donald Trump:Emptied their mental institution. They emptied their insane asylum. That's a step above a mental institution. Emptied them all right into our country. And we've done a great job of doing what we've done. Think of it. We have the lowest Okay.

8:44Joe Rogan:So he thinks when he hears his aides and policymakers saying asylum seekers, his brain associates to insane asylums. And then he bounces to, he didn't in this video, but he typically does. And then his brain bounces to a famous fictional character, Hannibal Lecter in Silence of the Lambs. And he continues to do this over and over in the idiocy of this and the excusing and sane washing by the press, like Jake Tapper right now, he's way more interested in the wife of Zoran Mamdani and what posts she likes standing up for oppressed people on Instagram than he is. This incompetent, idiotic person, before we even get to the dementia, Mehdi Hassan, and I've talked about this a lot, pop this up.

9:37Joe Rogan:He will never stop believing and saying that asylum seekers come from literal mental institutions, no matter how many times he is mocked for saying so or corrected behind the scenes, we live in idiocracy. And in just piling on the idiocracy of all of this, Pumps and I did an episode earlier where you all saw that Trump is now demanding that everybody in his cabinet and in his circle wear matching shoes. And I can't believe I am saying that sentence. The president of the United States wants everybody to match his shoes. And so he ordered a pair of shoes for little Marco, his nickname, not mine, little Marco.

10:23Joe Rogan:And it looks like little Marco's feet are a lot smaller than Trump ever realized. Pop this up. Marco Rubio wearing oversized shoes that Trump ordered for him by just guessing the sides. Trump has been buying$145 dress shoes for allies, using the gifts as a lighthearted way to encourage loyalty and unity within his circle. And there's little Marco in his shoes.

10:55Joe Rogan:And then if you go back to the top of this episode, you've got Joe Rogan. And he's like, a lot of us just feel betrayed. And I'm like, all of this has been here this whole time. Like when he came down the escalator, all of this stuff, all of this idiocy, confusing, insane asylums with those seeking asylums, the compulsive pathological line, this weird homosocial relationship stuff that he has with men, all of it has been there the entire time. And so there he is embarrassing little Marco and they're all wearing matching shoes. Like imagine if you and Kylie and I did a live show and we just all come out in like matching outfits.

11:37Joe Rogan:It's weird. It's just so juvenile.

11:40Donald Trump:I mean, I remember matching with my best friend in sixth grade. Like that's where, that's where my mind was in sixth grade, the president of the United States at 80. And first of all, ugly shoes. And here's what's so funny about it. Like you would think if you knew that your dictator, Fuhrer boss was going to order you shoes that everybody had to wear the same shoes, Marco, go get your size and not tell him like you don't have to wear clown shoes to fit in.

12:18Joe Rogan:I'm sure what happens is he's like, Hey, Marco here, I ordered you some shoes, put them on right now. Right. You know, it's just, this is what he's doing in the middle of a war. He's thinking about everybody dressing like him. And a lot of narcissists see children as an extension of their own narcissism. That's why they plot out their lives for them, script their lives for them. And this is what Donald Trump is doing with his cabinets. This is classic narcissistic behavior. He sees these members of his cabinets as an extension of his narcissism. So he's dressing them accordingly. It's crazy how insane this person is.

12:56Joe Rogan:And so as we have to go through all of this, and I just want to remind you, this is a more lighthearted episode because we all need it. But, you know, Israel and the United States are committing war crimes in Iran. Israel is committing war crimes in Lebanon. We are, there's a lot of censorship already on the news we're receiving about these wars, a lot of propaganda. And there's one entity that could stop all of this, and it's Congress. And I've never seen people with power cede so much ground to the aforementioned compulsive liar, bankruptor, con artist, dementia duck, making everybody wear matching shoes.

13:41Joe Rogan:This is who they're doing it for. All right. So we have little Moses Mike Grinder Johnson, and he's looking ahead to the midterms. And he has realized the administration's errors on these mass deportations. And so here he is talking about a little reset. Play the clip.

14:04Donald Trump:We got a little hiccup with some of the Hispanic and Latino voters for certain, because some of the immigration enforcement was viewed to be overzealous. And, you know, everybody can describe it differently. But here's the good news. We're in a course correction mode right now. We're going to have a new secretary of Homeland Security. Mark Wayne Mullen is going to be do a great job in that role. I'm sure that he'll be confirmed by the Senate. He's a thoughtful guy. He'll bring a thoughtful approach. You have somebody like Tom Homan who has 40. Enough, enough, enough, enough, enough.

14:32Joe Rogan:First of all, it is not a hiccup to kidnap little kids and put them in concentration camps and feed them food that has worms coming out of it. It is not a hiccup to take people away from their children. A lot of people were removed from their children. Their children needed their caretaker, their parent. Alligator Alcatraz is not a hiccup. It was intentional. It was on purpose and make no mistake about it, listener. They can trot out little Senator Booster Box, Mark Wayne Mullen all they want to, but don't kid yourselves. The person who runs DHS is Stephen Miller. What Little Grinder is trying to do here is he's starting to see we have problems with the midterms.

15:19Joe Rogan:If I'm Little Grinder, this is what I'm saying. If my boss can't figure out a way for us to cheat and the Supreme Court doesn't help him, We're going to have to lure the Latino voters back in because these people are transactional to them. And this is the fool's errand of MAGA. So many people have something broken in them and their default setting is cruelty. They're so broken. So they want to manifest that brokenness and being cruel to others. And so they like to pick on immigrants. They like to pick on gay people. They like to pick on women, et cetera. And then once they screw up, then they're like, oh, wait a minute.

16:00Joe Rogan:This was just a hiccup. Number one, that's incredibly insulting. But also what DHS did under Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller and Donald Trump with an assist from Little Grinder was exactly what they campaigned on. This is exactly what the MAGA rubes, the deplorables, this is exactly what they wanted. They like this. This is what they campaigned on. These are the signs from the RNC. Mass deportation now. And you might remember I started this episode with Joe Rogan. And a couple of months ago when they were, you know, at Home Depot and at places of employment rounding up people, he was like, they're rounding up gardeners.

16:44Joe Rogan:They're rounding up people. I thought they were going to get the criminals. And this is the problem. You have so many people that don't have moral clarity at all. And so they go ahead and vote for Donald Trump because they, Donald Trump gives them a permission structure to hate, to feast on this stuff. And then when it affects them personally, somebody in their lives were deported or they see this and they're like, oh, that doesn't, that doesn't look good. Then they want to have cover somewhere. Oh, this is a hiccup. And, you know, clearly Mike Johnson right there just threw Kristi Noem under the bus.

17:25Joe Rogan:So that, that is the first big domino to fall in this. And of course, Kristi Noem is now like the department of some bullshit superhero shield, something that made them for, right? To keep her mouth shut. But I've said this once and I'll say it again. This maggot, they try to present this all united front that they're all high fiving. They're all wearing the same shoes. you know it's the most toxic workplace on the planet. All right, listener, it's March and spring. Thank God is creeping in. And I'm all about shaking off the winter funk and resetting my routine. Sometimes I feel kind of like brain fog and groggy in the mornings.

18:08Joe Rogan:And if you're like me, you're craving a little fresh energy and focus as the seasons change. And let me tell you, one of the best changes I've made is swapping out my usual coffee for something way, way better. It's called mud water.

19:28Donald Trump:They hate each other's guts. I mean, there's zero doubt about that. But what's interesting to me and what fascinates me about MAGA is they're at the RNC mass deportations now. His big polling number was on immigration. He was going to take care of immigration. And then when people see it and they see, which I give them no credit for, he's going to, you know, just the criminals because fuck, all he does is lie. And he's completely incompetent. But when you hold a mirror up to these people's beliefs, it's just like when you repeat back Charlie Kirk's words, people are offended by it. So when you take Donald Trump's words and you process them to be just people you hate, and then the mirror is shown up to you, you voted for this in full, you know, full colors raging to the voting box.

20:25Donald Trump:you voted for this. The mirror, those people don't like it. And that's what's fascinating to me is the people that are, they're all in, then you hold up a mirror and then they feel terrible about themselves. I mean, do I think they really admit it to themselves? No, but it makes them

20:45Joe Rogan:uncomfortable. I don't think they feel terrible about themselves. I think all of a sudden they feel like victims. Joe Rogan at the top of this episode, so many people feel betrayed. They're victims of this guy. They don't feel bad about themselves. They immediately go into victim mode. And that's a big distinction. I don't know that these people are capable of feeling poorly about themselves other than setting up a blame structure. Donald Trump lied to us. I was never for this. And so now I'm a victim of this guy. Instead of saying, you know what, like Joe Rogan says, say, you know what, I kind of fell into all this, the fight, fight, fight video at the, you know, all of this weave talk.

21:26Joe Rogan:And I just kind of dove into it and I didn't listen to my gut. And I should have, there's no personal accountability in any of these people's statements. It's that they're a victim. Mike Johnson is now a victim of Christie Gnome's overzealousness, even though nothing has changed at DHS. Christie Gnome was a puppet. Mark Wayne Mullet will be a puppet. Stephen Miller will be still executing the warehouses, the concentration camps. They immediately go into victim mode. There's never personal accountability from the party of personal accountability. It's always, always forgiveness without accountability.

22:03Joe Rogan:And that's how they operate with impunity. And so that's why when I hear people say, you know, we're going to have to offer these people an off ramp. I'm like, listen, that's their shit. We've all had to go through personal growth. We've all had to sort out things. If you want to come join the resistance, the opposition, great. Welcome aboard. But am I going to be like, I understand that you were manipulated by Donald Trump. My thing is like, I understand that you're a fucking idiot. You need to really clue in and deprogram yourself from this cult. Like that's what needs to happen because it was obvious, abundantly obvious how broken this man is from the minute.

22:49Joe Rogan:If you never watched or knew anything about him before, and it was just the first primary race in the Republican party in 2015 and 2016, that he was not fit for this job. And it's only gotten worse since then. All right. That's all we have, like, subscribe, comment, and we'll be back later with more news.
