Election Day is here. But the race is still changing at the last minute.
As the Trump campaign has groundbreaking news for Americans already casting their votes.
Late on Monday night, a string of critical, high-profile endorsements came in for Donald Trump that no one was expecting. This includes one of the biggest media endorsements anyone can get today, picking up an endorsement from the one and only Joe Rogan.
On Twitter (also known as ‘X’), Joe Rogan posted online after he had Elon Musk in his studio for a podcast episode that he was endorsing Trump after Mr. Elon Musk had convinced him that Trump was the man for the job.
“He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you’ll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way. For the record, yes, that’s an endorsement of Trump. Enjoy the podcast,” Joe Rogan said online.
The post from Joe Rogan has more than nearly 24 million views at the time of writing and nearly half a million “likes” as well. This was not the only big endorsement to roll in for Donald Trump at the eleventh hour either. A few other celebrity endorsements came in, indicating a shift of disaffected former Democrats aligning with Trump now.
A former UFC champion, Kamaru Usman, endorsed Donald Trump as well late on Monday night, saying that he wants to live in a Trump America rather than one run by the Biden-Harris Democrats who have been running the country for the last four years.
“Growing up Democrat and starting to understand the state of politics over the last few decades I know how I want to live and how I want to raise my family @realDonaldTrump,” the MMA star shared online. The post has more than 13 million views.

Donald Trump responded to Joe Rogan, thanking him for the endorsement, saying it’s a “great honor.” Donald Trump, in his episode with Joe Rogan on his podcast, asked Joe for his endorsement, saying that he knew Rogan was not a “Kamala guy” and that he would much rather vote Trump-Vance this election.

The list of endorsements that came in for Donald Trump late goes on and on. Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly, who now runs her own independent show called the Megyn Kelly Show for SiriusXM, endorsed Donald Trump as well on Monday. She also appeared at a late campaign rally as well.

NFL star, Nick Bosa, a current player for the San Francisco 49ers also endorsed Donald Trump for President over Kamala Harris by wearing a MAGA hat after one of his recent games. Mike Tyson has endorsed Mr. Trump, too, as has former NFL star Antonio Brown.
These endorsements, particularly the one from the biggest independent media talking head, Joe Rogan, will be critical for Donald Trump to drive out voters on Election Day. Even those who may not have trusted Donald Trump before will now have to reconsider if they trust Joe Rogan, Megyn Kelly, or one of their favorite atheletes now endorsing Donald Trump.
The timing could not have been better for Donald Trump and his campaign to wrap up these major endorsements.
