Joe Rogan reveals Elon Musk created an app that showed Trump won the election ‘four hours before they called it’
Podcaster Joe Rogan, who recently interviewed Donald Trump and Elon Musk in the days before the election, revealed how the Tesla and X owner was able to tell that the former president had won the election well in advance of everyone else.
Speaking on his podcast, Rogan explained that Musk had developed a bespoke app on his phone which was able to give him precise numbers of votes ahead of time – several hours before the networks announced it.
‘Apparently Elon created an app and he knew who won the election four hours before the results,’ Rogan said.
‘So as the results are coming in, four hours before they called it, Dana White told me Elon said “I’m leaving. It’s over. Donald won.”‘

‘I don’t know where he’s pulling his data from but he had the most accurate data. In terms of the rural states they hadn’t put their results in yet, but Trump was ahead in these states. Kamala was never going to win those states, so it tabulated that, and put it all together.
‘I don’t know how he did it,’ Rogan, who delivered his own last-minute endorsement of Trump last Monday on the eve of the election.
Perhaps no single figure did as much to boost Trump’s election campaign as Musk.
Over the summer, a Musk-founded super PAC, an outside spending group that can raise unlimited sums, emerged to help Trump turn out voters.
Musk poured at least $119 million into a Trump door-knocking operation, according to filings to the Federal Election Commission.
While Musk’s America PAC struggled to reach some of its door-knocking goals and faced fraud claims, the massive operation still helped Trump’s otherwise paltry ground efforts.

Like much of the campaign, Musk’s operation was geared at motivating soft Trump supporters to head to the polls – not at persuading undecided voters

Musk’s ownership of X also helped as the billionaire regularly dashed off posts supporting Trump and spread misinformation about voting to his more than 203 million followers.
By October, Musk had set up camp in must-win Pennsylvania and was giving away $1 million each day to a voter who signed a conservative political petition
Trump has publicly promised to tap Musk to lead a government efficiency commission.
Donald Trump was joined by Steve Wynn, Elon Musk, and Dana White in the VIP area of the Mar-a-Lago ballroom in West Palm Beach as they watched the 2024 election results roll in
By the time Trump delivered his victory speech early on Wednesday, the new president-elect was flanked by – and showered praise on – famous names from the world of sport.
UFC boss Dana White was lovingly hailed as ‘tough’ and ‘a piece of work,’ while golfer Bryson DeChambeau was celebrated as ‘fantastic’ and even having a ‘slightly longer’ drive than the golf-loving Trump.
Loud cheers, and a significant portion of Trump’s address, were devoted to his best-known supporter of all, Musk.
