Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis addressed the Spotify controversy with Joe Rogan in an interview this week, telling the popular podcaster “do not apologize” to the cancel culture mob.
DeSantis shared the strong words during an interview with Fox News Digital in response to attacks from mainstream media.
“No, he shouldn’t have apologized. I mean, you see what happens? The mob will come after people, and they’re targeting Rogan because he’s threatening to upset the apple cart on some of the things that they’re holding dear. And with COVID, he’s just bringing opposing views. He’s letting people decide,” DeSantis said.
“They say he’s against [the COVID vaccine]. I do not listen to his show, but then I read he specifically advocated for people with co-morbidities and elderly to get vaccinated,” he added.
