Spotify podcaster Joe Rogan thinks it’s “scary” that Democrats are “exposing how corrupt the system” is while they relentlessly pursue criminal prosecution against former President Donald Trump to keep him from retaking the White House.
While discussing the issue on the most recent episode of his podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” with stand-up comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, the titular host commented on the “kooky” era we are currently living through, noting the absence of any “course” corrective measures.
“We’re being run by a dead man,” Rogan exclaimed. “They’re trying to stop this other guy from even running and, in doing so, they’re revealing how corrupt the democracy is.”
“They’re showing the corruption within the system by charging this guy with 34 felonies for paying off a lady he had sex with,” he said in shock. “Like, what?”

Rogan explained that in most situations, the charges against Trump would have been “considered a misdemeanor,” but Manhattan Federal Prosecutor Alvin Bragg managed to make all 34 counts that Trump has been convicted of in his hush money case into felonies.
“They trumped it up. They trumped it up — no pun intended,” he remarked. “And then he signed like 34 different checks so there are 34 different counts. The whole thing’s crazy.”
Rogan noted that it was “scary” that the left willingly went along with Bragg’s ploy and that plenty of them were “aware of it.”

He compared Democrats to “s***s that are always talking bad about other girls for being s***s,” and said their lack of awareness about the standard they were setting could turn the nation into a third-world country.
“They don’t even realize they’re setting a precedent, and when this guy gets in office or another guy gets in office that’s a Republican, you’ve got real problems now, kids,” the Spotify star pointed out.
“If the elections are real, that’s how it usually goes,” he explained. “It usually goes, one side wins, and they’re like, ‘This sucks. Let’s try the other way.’ The other guy wins, and they’re like, ‘Huh? This is BS. Let’s try the other way.'”
“This is what we’ve done in this country over and over and over again,” Rogan noted about past presidential elections. “We go Clinton to Bush, Bush to Obama. It’s what we do. We always do it this way.”
He warned that if we start messing with the way that political candidates are treated by allowing the other side of the aisle to “silence and imprison” them, then the country will be just “like Mexico.”
“We’re just not assassinating people yet. We’re like a third-world country. We’re like a banana republic,” Rogan continued.
He noted that currently were being governed not by “the will of the people, but what’s best for the people” who want to keep ruling over the country.
“We’re letting the thing be run by the people that are in power, that are corrupt, that want to keep the power,” the comedian added.
Rogan also spoke about how a shift in support for Trump among rappers following his guilty verdict for falsifying business records was indicative of how voters were unexpectedly reacting to his conviction.
🚨 NEW: Joe Rogan says Democrats made a fatal error by making Trump a convicted felon.

“They’re changing the tone on this. They’re doing it. They wanna try to make him look like a bad guy, but people just aren’t stupid anymore,” Hinchcliffe commented.
“I mean, obviously still half of the country doesn’t get it,” he quipped.
“So many rappers are showing support for Trump, now, it’s crazy,” Rogan stated.
“Because now, he’s got a felony,” he chuckled. “I mean, like, now they realize also he’s getting trapped by the system, just like everybody’s been rapping about being trapped by the system, this bulls**t system. And you watch it happen with him.”
Hinchcliffe said that he didn’t believe that Democrats were adequately prepared for how black voters would respond to Trump being convicted.
“I don’t think they were counting on the black voter being like, ‘Hey, they just f***ed that guy. That’s what they do to us,’” he remarked.
“That’s what they do to everybody,” Rogan shot back. “And they pretend they’re there for you while they’re letting in immigrants.”
Former Democratic Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who did eight years in a Colorado federal prison on public corruption charges, thinks that black voters are going to “rise up” and support Trump, like he now does, following the former president’s conviction.
Blagojevich told Jesse Watters that he sees Trump’s guilty verdict as “déjà vu all over again,” after he was not convicted during his first trial, then imprisoned for 14 years after prosecutors used “unlawful jury instructions to criminalize things that were legal,” and convicted him during a second trial.
Blagojevich, whose sentence Trump commuted in 2020, noted that Democrats were “celebrating” Trump’s conviction, but some voters were questioning if they had went “too far.”
If it weren’t for President Trump, today would be the day I’d be coming home from prison. I did 8 years of a 14 year sentence for standing up against a corrupt prosecution. Forever grateful to President Trump for what he did for me & how he’s standing up to corrupt prosecutions. pic.twitter.com/PaM8lIG3vv

“I think there’s one group of Democratic constituencies that’s going to rise up because they recognize it. I’m talking about the black community,” he pointed out.
“That for too long in America has been on the wrong side of weaponized prosecutors targeting them. They see this for what it is.”
Blagojevich said he received support from the black community during his legal woes, because they have experience being persecuted by “the man.”
“They know how sometimes the man lies, cheats, misuse[s], and abuse[s] the law to get people,” he added. “They’re seeing through this.”
“My prediction is on November the 5th, that’s the real verdict, and Trump will win largely in some respects because the black vote is going to leave the Democrat Party and support him,” Blagojevich concluded.
