Joe Rogan claims Trump started the war in Iran to distract Americans from the Epstein files. Joe Rogan said on the Wednesday episode of his popular podcast that he thinks President Donald Trump may have started the war in Iran to distract the U.S. public from the Epstein files.
During the episode, Rogan's guest, Arsenio Hall, claimed that "misdirection" is "the story of American politics."
Rogan agreed with Hall and argued that former President Bill Clinton started "bombing some other countries" — a reference to the 1999 bombing of then-Yugoslavia — to distract Americans from the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
The podcast host then claimed the U.S. war in Iran was the latest example of politicians using war to distract from domestic issues.
“Look, the Epstein files comes out — we go to war with Iran. It’s a good way to get people to stop talking about certain things,” Rogan said.
“You give them a new problem to think about.”
