In a nearly three-hour interview, Trump talked about tax cuts, election integrity, and the perils of the presidency as he ramps up his 2024 campaign.

Former President Donald Trump sat down with podcast host Joe Rogan on Friday for a nearly three-hour interview. Trump candidly spoke on a wide array of topics.

The episode, recorded in Austin, Texas, and published Friday night, had already been viewed more than 10 million times within the first 24 hours on YouTube, where there are 17.6 million subscribers to “The Joe Rogan Experience.” Spotify has another 14.5 million subscribers to the podcast.

In the freewheeling conversation, Trump began by reflecting on his years as a businessman and reality TV host on “The Apprentice” before entering politics in 2015. Until then, his engagement with politics, during a time when he was a Democrat, had been as a donor, he said.

Trump recalled his early days in the White House—which he described as a hallowed place—as a “surreal experience,” but said that feeling wore off with time and it simply became a place in which he lived.

“I had two things that I was focused on: governing the country and survival,” Trump said, saying that once he took office “they came down” on him.

“I mean nobody has ever been treated that way,” he said, referring to the tsunami of opposition and negative press he received.

‘A Very Dangerous Business’

Rogan and Trump discussed the two assassination attempts on the Republican presidential nominee in the last three months.
