On Thursday's episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan characterized the current period of time as formative in the history of the United States, and suggested history would not be kind to the 2020s or Biden's presidency.
'In the future, they're gonna be saying it's one of the most tumultuous periods in the history of the country,' Rogan said.
'We don't really have a real leader in this country anymore,' Rogan went on. 'I mean, you could say Joe Biden is the president, he's our leader, and you'd be correct on paper, but everybody knows he's out of his mind. He's barely hanging in there.'
