Joe Rogan said he thinks former Fox News host Tucker Carlson could win the 2028 presidential election in a recent episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” with Valuetainment founder Patrick Bet-David.
“He’s also got a very popular voice,” Rogan commented.
Rogan envisioned a scenario where Donald Trump wins the 2024 presidential election and Carlson decided to enter the 2028 presidential race.
“Let’s just make a scenario. Trump wins in 2024. He has four years. If Tucker went to run in 2028, he could win,” Rogan said.
“He really could win cause it would kind of be carrying those policies, but also he’s sort of a no-nonsense guy who exposes bull sh** in a pretty humorous way,” he continued.
“He red-pilled a lot of left wing people. There’s a lot of left wing people during the pandemic that said ‘Tucker Carlson is a propagandist.’ ‘He’s a piece of sh**.’ He’s a right wing a**hole.’ And as time went on, they were like ‘he’s saying a lot of sh** that’s right,” he said.

“A super PAC had tried to push Carlson to run for president in 2024, but the commentator’s attorney shut down the group’s activities with a cease-and-desist letter in May,” Just the News noted.

During the episode, Bet-David asked Rogan about having Donald Trump on “The Joe Rogan Experience.”
“When are you bringing Trump on?” Bet-David asked.
“I don’t know,” Rogan replied.
“Maybe.”
Rogan elaborated and revealed what he would ask Donald Trump if he appeared on his podcast.
“At a certain point in time…it would be interesting to hear his perspective on a lot of things,” Rogan said.
“I would like to know what is it like when you actually get into office. I would like to know things like, ‘what is like versus perception.’ What is it actually like when you get in that building? What are you greeted with? When do you know the people are f***ing with you? When do you know that the intelligence agencies [are] lying to you? Like when you decided to fire Comey, how much did you know? Rogan continued.
