Donald Trump backs UFC commentator

Former US President Donald Trump has backed prominent commentator Joe Rogan, who recently got caught up in a racist scandal.

“Joe Rogan is an interesting and popular guy, but he needs to stop apologizing for fake news to radical left maniacs and fanatics. What other way should you express your regret? Joe, just keep doing what you're good at. And don't let yourself look weak and scared in front of them. It's not you and you never will be!" the statement reads.

The scandal erupted after a video with Rogan's statements got into the network. It caused such a wide resonance that Rogan had to delete all the scandalous releases and record an apology video.
