Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) continues to gain attention from both parties, causing waves with every comment or speech he makes, resulting in polls showing that DeSantis is a top favorite among voters for a potential 2024 presidential run compared to President Trump.
In fact, DeSantis has even secured votes from celebrities like Tesla CEO Elon Musk and now podcast host Joe Rogan.
Rogan praised DeSantis' leadership, saying he would make for a good president.
"I think Ron DeSantis would work as a good president…I mean, what he's done for Florida has been admirable," the podcast host said.
During an episode with MMA fighter turned actress Gina Carano, the pair started talking about today's political climate.
Carano asked Rogan if he was supporting anyone, to which one of the most popular podcasters replied instantaneously his thoughts on DeSantis.
Rogan touted the Florida governor's handling of the Wuhan Coronavirus pandemic, saying that DeSantis was "correct" in the decisions he made.
"I feel like what he did for Florida, a lot of people gave him a lot of grief, but ultimately he was correct," Rogan said, adding, "he was correct when it comes to like deaths, he was correct. And when it comes to protecting all vulnerable populations, he was correct in terms of distribution of monoclonal antibodies."
Rogan commended DeSantis for standing up for Americans' freedoms.
"You know, he is not perfect, he's a human being, but what he's done is stand up for freedoms… there's some weird gaslighting s–t that went on where people equated freedom and saying the word freedom to like right-wing bigotry and hate is so strange," Rogan said.
