'That's nuts': Joe Rogan warns people will 'light NYC on fire' if Trump tries 3rd term bid

Podcaster Joe Rogan suggested that Americans would revolt if President Donald Trump attempted to use the war in Iran as an excuse to serve an illegal third term as president.

During a Thursday interview with Australian comedian James Donald Forbes McCann, Rogan pointed out that many Israelis wanted to try Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust despite ongoing military operations.

"They want to try him now," the podcaster said. "And Israel, like, really locks up their politicians... But I don't know enough about their politics to know whether or not he's guilty of anything."

Rogan went on to observe that Ukraine's election had been canceled following Russia's invasion.

"Can't have an election while war's going on," he remarked.

"You did it in the Civil War," McCann said.

"Yeah, well, if we did [cancel the election] today, if we, if Trump said, hey, I have to stay president because we're at war, people would go [expletive] crazy," Rogan replied. "They would light New York City on fire. There's no chance. Oh, that's nuts."

"So you get what you're willing to tolerate as a country," McCann concluded.
