<p>Vice President JD Vance clapped back at popular podcast host Joe Rogan on Friday after Rogan blasted President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan and movement.</p>
<p>During an episode of the “Joe Rogan Experience” that dropped earlier this week, Rogan said the “Make America Great Again” phrase “sucks,” adding that MAGA has become “a movement of a bunch of dorks.”</p>
<p>“First of all, America is great,” Rogan said during an interview with comedian Dave Smith. “Make America greater? I’m down. But ‘Make America Great Again’ and then it becomes a movement of a bunch of f*cking dorks? Because a lot of them are dorks. A lot of them are these really weird, f*cking uninteresting, unintelligent people that have got something that they cling to.”</p>
<p>Rogan added that “there’s a lot of people that are just real genuine patriots and they’re all lumped into this one group and you got to accept the dorks, too? F*ck that!”</p>
<p>Vance, who has been friendly with Rogan and appeared on Rogan’s podcast in October 2024, responded to the comedian’s comments during an interview with conservative commentator Benny Johnson on Friday.</p>
<p>“I think we have many, many fewer dorks than the far-Left,” Vance said. “But everybody’s got some dorks. We love our dorks. We love our cool kids. We love anybody who wants to save our country.”</p>

<p>Both Rogan and Smith backed Trump and Vance in the 2024 election, but they have become increasingly critical of the president over his handling of foreign policy and the Epstein files. Smith, a regular guest on Rogan’s show, aligns with many of the anti-Israel views spouted by commentators and politicians on the far-Left. Both Rogan and Smith suggested that Trump has betrayed his base over the Iran war, but polling consistently shows that Trump’s supporters back his actions in Iran.</p>
<p>In another episode of his podcast this week, Rogan brought up MAGA and quipped that Democrats like former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton used to be “more MAGA than MAGA” on border security.</p>
<p>“Her take on the border was like hardcore,” Rogan said. “If you’ve been convicted of a crime, get out. If you stay here, pay a stiff penalty, and you have to get in line, and you have to learn English! And everyone cheers. Like, that is a hardcore right-wing 2026 perspective.”</p>
<p>He then said that Obama “deported more people than Trump did.”</p>
<p>Vance also responded to Rogan’s comments on Democrats’ past support for border security and said Rogan was “wrong” for suggesting that Obama was better at deporting illegal immigrants than Trump.</p>
<p>“I’m going to text Joe because that is definitely wrong,” Vance told Johnson. “Here’s why this is wrong: when you look at the deportation numbers that go back to the Obama administration, they would count somebody who showed up at the border and they turned away as a deportation. Now, we have almost no one showing up at the border because the border is secure.”</p>
