Joe Rogan believes Donald Trump overreacted. commenting on the UFC White House card, Scheduled for June 2026. The President of the United States had stated that the event, planned to take place on the lawn of the presidential residence, would feature approximately nine title fights, information that, according to the commentator, makes no sense.
