(The Hill) — Podcaster Joe Rogan on Thursday threw his weight behind independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over either of the major party candidates, making the online influencer known for dabbling in conspiracies one of Kennedy’s most notable endorsements.

Rogan said on his video podcast “The Joe Rogan Experience” that he views both Democrats and Republicans as perverting democratic norms.

“That’s just what they do. That’s politics. They do it on the left, they do it on the right,” Rogan said. “They gaslight you, they manipulate you, they promote narratives, and the only one who is not doing that is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.”

Rogan added that he’s a “fan” of Kennedy.

“He’s the only one that makes sense to me,” he said. “He’s the only one — he doesn’t attack people, he attacks actions and ideas, but he’s much more reasonable and intelligent. I mean, the guy was an environmental lawyer and he cleaned up the East River. He’s a legitimate guy.”

Both Kennedy and Rogan have been critical of vaccines, specifically the COVID-19 vaccine, and spread conspiracies about its efficacy. 

Rogan’s show, exclusive to Spotify, is consistently one of the most popular podcasts in the world. He conducts long, wide-ranging interviews with a variety of guests, including comedians, athletes and scientists, among others.

Kennedy’s support has waned since early in his campaign, falling to under 4% support in polls against former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, according to The Hill/Decision Desk HQ average of national polls.

Rogan said last week he believes Harris will defeat Trump in November.

“I’m saying it because she could. I’m not saying it because I think she’s going to and I’m not saying it because I want her to. I’m just being honest. I could see her winning,” he said.

Rogan previously said that he voted for Libertarian candidate Jo Jorgensen in 2020, after endorsing Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., in the 2020 primaries.
