Did Elon Musk Pay for Joe Rogan’s Trump Endorsement?

Honestly, I’m not one for conspiracy theories derived with no evidence, but seeing the reports that Elon donated over $250 million to Trumps campaign, according to new filings with the Federal Election Commission, it got me wondering if he possibly paid Rogan a handsome amount to give his endorsement.

Rogan had previously said he’d never have Trump on his podcast. Then in the weeks leading up to the election, where Must contributed a reported $120 million dollars, Trump is on the podcast followed by an appearance by Musk and a Rogan endorsement. Rogan even said that if it wasn’t for Musk laying it all out for him, that he never would have gave the endorsement.

When you think about how much of political contributions goes towards the heavy advertising during a campaign, I’m sure a $50-$100 million dollar payment for Rogan’s endorsement may have felt like money well spent to Elon.
