Joe Rogan has blunt 6-word solution to Make America Great Again

Podcast host Joe Rogan has a massive following and a devoted fan base because he pulls no punches. The former “Fear Factor” host now has one of the most listened-to podcasts in the world, with 19.4 million subscribers, according to On The Fly.

Rogan is eager and willing to talk to people from all walks of life, and he’s a very strong anti-censorship advocate who believes firmly in free speech. Beyond that, his political leanings can get a little complicated, as he endorsed Bernie Sanders in the primary in 2020, but he famously supported candidate Donald Trump in 2024.

While Rogan interviewed Trump on his show in the lead-up to the election and he ultimately endorsed him after speaking with close friend and Trump backer Elon Musk, Rogan is not necessarily 100% on board with every aspect of the current MAGA agenda.

In fact, the podcaster has questioned things like whether deportations are being done in a way people expected and whether MAGA voters anticipated so much involvement in Iran.

Despite these potential areas where he may break with the president, Rogan still does want to Make America Great Again. Not only that, but he has a blunt six-word solution that he believes can make that happen.

This is what Rogan believes will Make America Great Again

Rogan provided his prescription for how to truly Make America Great Again in a conversation with Senator Bernie Sanders on June 24, 2025.

On the Joe Rogan Experience Podcast #2341, Rogan started with a simple, basic truth: The country is great if its people are great.

He put this more bluntly, though, commenting: “If you want to make America great again. Less losers. How do you make less losers?” Fortunately, he had a simple six-word solution to achieve this goal: “Don’t stack the deck against them.”

Rogan explained that he believes there have been many communities and cities that have been “the exact same way for decade after decades.” He thinks that the problem dates back as far as “Jim Crow and the red line laws and all these,” and he wants to know why no one is trying to fix the longstanding issues in these places where people struggle to get ahead.

How does Rogan believe America can make less losers?

Rogan was pretty clear, not just on the fact that the country needs to stop stacking the deck against people, but also on how to do that.

Specifically, he had several suggestions for setting everyone up for success, including:

Increasing the minimum wage, potentially to as high as $17 per hour, up from the current federal minimum of $7.25
Providing some type of national health care system that ensures everyone is able to get the care they need
Making sure that we are offering free public education, including funding the university system

Rogan said he believes most people can agree on these issues, although whether that’s true is questionable, as there has been a lot of political conflict over the years on topics like the minimum wage and a national health care system.

However, he also said something that people from both sides of the aisle would agree with, even if they aren’t on board with almost tripling minimum wage or getting the government further into the health care business.

He explained that so many issues become “this political beach ball that they just bounce around the air at a concert.”

In other words, Rogan – like many Americans – believes that we just bounce the same issues around over and over with no real attempt at solutions.

And regardless of what you believe those solutions are, one thing that is clear is that continuing to pass the ball on big issues is no way to Make America Great Again.
