Joe Rogan is open regarding his appreciation for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., even stating at one point that he really liked the nephew the late great John F. Kennedy as a candidate in the 2024 Presidential election run. However, that was not to be as Kennedy ended up dropping out of the race. “This isn’t an endorsement,” Mr. Rogan posted in 2024 just after saying that he preferred Robert F. Kennedy as a candidate. Despite dropping out of the race, all wasn’t lost for Kennedy Jr., as he’s a front-runner for the position of United States Secretary of Health and Human Services in President Trump’s cabinet.
Recently, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was grilled by the US Senate over controversial remarks about the COVID-19 vaccines, being accused of spreading anti-vax propaganda, while getting both his children vaccinated. And guess what? In true fashion, Joe Rogan, who had his own history of being annoyed with COVID-19 mandates, came to RFK Jr.’s rescue, defending allegations against him of being an ‘anti-vaccine’ supporter.
Rogan spoke about America’s declining health and how Kennedy Jr could improve it by merely ‘inspiring people’. Speaking to comedian Brian Simpson on JRE #2266, the UFC commentator equated improved health with rising GDP: “I think if people were a lot healthier, first of all, you would need less healthcare. If you look at all the healthcare issues that we have in this country, there’s a giant chunk of it that’s connected to the standard American diet.”

Rogan continued, “If you hear RFK Jr. on TV, trying to motivate people to do this and you see him working out, like maybe that’s the thing you need that takes you from ‘man I gotta go to the gym one day’ to ‘fu** it I’m going to the gym.’ This is it, and if more people do that, there are more healthy people. If there are more healthy people there are less losers. If there are less losers, the country makes more money, the whole GDP goes up.”
Easier said than done? Yes. Especially from a policy standpoint. However, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. did promise Rogan to uphold his end of the bargain.

RFK Jr. and Rogan raged a storm earlier with their discussion in the latter’s podcast. The most surprising aspect of it all was Rogan’s claims that the politician and environmental lawyer was the ‘most reasonable’ candidate in the 2024 Presidential Election. Rogan was pretty satisfied with his advocacy for legal battles against corporations for public health. Even Kennedy Jr promised Rogan that he would uphold his end of the bargain.

Can RFK Jr. and Joe Rogan really 'Make America Healthy Again,' or is it just wishful thinking?

In the caption of an Instagram post on the same, Kennedy swore to come through on the promises he had made. “Thanks, @joerogan @shawnryan762 … With a mass movement behind us, @realdonaldtrump and I will transform our food system. We will get the chemicals out of the water, air, food, and soil. We will drain the corruption out of the agencies that are supposed to protect the public. By 2028, I promise you, we will Make America Healthy Again.”
