In 2020 Rogan endorsed Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders, but shortly before the 2024 election. he supported Trump.
At times, Rogan’s editorial approach has landed him in controversy—for example, during the Covid pandemic, when he was accused of spreading misinformation about vaccines.
In 2022 Rogan apologized after footage emerged of him repeatedly using the n-word in early episodes of his show.

Murdoch, 93, married the retired Russian biologist last year in a ceremony at his California vineyard.
Politicians and former presidents
As is customary at presidential inaugurations, numerous former US presidents are in attendance.
Much has been made in the media about Michelle Obama not accompanying her husband Barack to the event on Monday.
There, alongside Obama, who was in power before the start of Trump’s final term, are former presidents including Bill Clinton and George W. Bush.
Getty ImagesAnother familiar face is former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
When Johnson came to power in 2019, Trump described him as a “good guy,” adding: “They call him the British Trump.”
