Joe Rogan is worried that legal migrants could be wrapped up in the Trump administration’s deportation spree.

On a March 29 episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, the host praised President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration but expressed horror at the news that the administration had deported a gay Venezuelan asylum-seeker along with suspected members of the Tren de Aragua gang.
