Dana White was the reason behind Joe Rogan’s episode with Donald Trump

The UFC CEO Dana White has been at the forefront of supporting Donald Trump in his election campaign. The UFC CEO and Donald Trump share a very close relationship since Trump helped the promotion in a huge way by letting them have their events at the Trump Hotel. Regardless, Joe Rogan’s Trump episode has garnered a massive viewership from the internet. This episode has changed Rogan’s as well as Trump’s views on each other and Dana White can be thanked for it.

Why, you might ask? Well, it is due to the fact that the UFC CEO was one of the reasons the podcast actually happened, “He is authentic enough to go on Joe Rogan’s show for three and a half hours, unscripted, and talk about anything that popped up to talk to Joe or anybody else. And I pushed hard for him to do that interview because that’s the setting that he needs to be in every time he does an interview.”

He further added, “With the mainstream media, it’s all the same bulls–t, and I knew that he and Rogan would sit down. More importantly, I knew he and Rogan would like each other. I needed to get those two together because I knew they would end up liking each other once they sat in a room together.” With the election day drawing near, who do you think would work for the nation for the next five years?
