When Donald Trump was the headliner of a recent edition of The Joe Rogan Experience, the internet community surely got a fantastic treat. Rogan spearheaded the discussions with Trump as he and his guest dove deep into conversations that were somewhat of a mix between comedy and everything political. Such was the reception of the episode that in just 20 hours, it got over 20 million views.

So it surely looked like the internet wanted to see Donald Trump talking about being president while also revealing some secrets that surely would make it a spicy podcast episode. And that’s what Joe Rogan too tried to do, as he revealed on a recent episode of his JRE Companion. The UFC commentator said that he wanted Donald Trump to talk about things like the JFK files and his first day as president; however, he failed to achieve the task.

But how can an expert interviewer like Rogan fail to get the answers? Well, that’s where he praised the Republican candidate. The UFC commentator said in the podcast that Trump is an expert at diverting his answers as far away from the real topic as possible. A trick that stopped Rogan from finding out about Trump’s first day as president.

Joe Rogan said in the podcast, “He’s just like real good at you asking him a question and he starts to answer it, but then he takes you on a totally different route. But you gotta bring him back in, but you gotta be respectful. So it’s like I knew that that’s the way he does it: ‘I understand what you’re doing, sir, but let’s get it back to what I was asking.’ I was like what that first f***in day is like, and I don’t think I really got an answer out of him.”

Well, it surely looks like Trump was really prepared for the interview, and his skills as a brilliant orator truly worked their charm. That’s why many pollsters are claiming that Trump has cracked the code of earning young male votes by appearing on comedy shows and podcasts rather than appearing on traditional media. But while he did shy away from revealing some major secrets, Trump did take the time and effort to praise his friend, Dana White.

Donald Trump is all praise for Dana White

While talking about his presidential campaigning, the ex-POTUS couldn’t help but praise UFC Head Honcho Dana White for prioritizing him over his own family. Speaking to Joe Rogan about Dana White, the ex-POTUS claimed that he truly wanted Dana White to give the introductory speech at an election rally. However, there was the major issue that at that time White was traveling with his wife and family, and as a result, he refused the opportunity.

Trump said, “It was interesting. He (Dana White) was away, and he said to the people that, you know, one of my guys called and said, “I won’t be able to do it. I’m… I just left with my wife and family.” However, the UFC head honcho proved to be a true friend to the former President, as he soon informed Trump that he would be available for him to give the speech at the Republican National Convention.

Trump added, “So we’re looking at who we’re going to get, and all of a sudden, she comes in, “Sir, Dana White just said he’s going to do it, and he’s coming back in tonight.” He’s taking, you know, the guy is just an incredible guy, and he’s like a tough champion but loyal. Yeah, he’s got to be one of your favorite people. He’s one of my favorites.” Well, it truly looks like the two are really great friends. And that’s why even Trump can often be seen attending UFC events as a special guest.
