Griffin and Trump also mocked Rogan’s fans for “believing Joe Rogan is the news.”
“I have to wonder, because when I first met him back in the day, he was a freaking road comic,” Griffin explained. "He had a good act. He was the best of the best. I don’t think he would even say that. But he wasn’t horrible.”
“And then something happened where he decided to get all like, roided up,” she continued. “And I haven’t seen him in many years, but the last time I saw him, I didn’t even recognize him. And he became a UFC announcer.”
"The idea that somebody like Joe Rogan is so influential is kind of terrifying."
Griffin and the former president’s niece then discussed Rogan’s “$100 million a year contract” and suggested that the Joe Rogan Experience host wants to “cozy up” to embattled conspiracy theorist Alex Jones to extend his influence and audience.
“He has a $100 million a year contract, which has been reported,” Griffin said. “And I think that has to influence why he wants to cozy up to Alex Jones.”
“Of course it does,” Mary trump agreed.
Donald Trump’s niece then condemned the “disinformation” Rogan and Jones have been accused of spreading through their respective outlets before joking that Rogan has “the IQ of a turnip.”
Joe Rogan previously came under fire for a number of controversial remarks made during his podcast.
“Disinformation is very powerful and it’s everywhere, especially when you know, we’re all so siloed,” Mary said. “So, you know, there’s no competing narrative, there’s nothing challenging.”
“And also people want to hear what they want, what fits in with their beliefs,” she continued. “The idea that somebody like Joe Rogan, who, you know, has the IQ of a turnip, is so influential is kind of terrifying.”
