Rogan’s Critique of U.S. Military Actions
Beyond concerns about the UFC event, Rogan has openly criticized the U.S. government’s decision to engage militarily with Iran. Previously supportive of President Trump during the 2020 election, Rogan expressed disappointment regarding Trump’s shift in foreign policy. “It just seems so insane,” he remarked. “He ran on no more wars.
