Overview

  • Kick streamer Adin Ross, who interviewed Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago in 2024 and presented lavish gifts, told viewers he now regrets getting involved in politics.
  • Theo Von objected after the Department of Homeland Security used a joking clip of him in a deportation video, citing his immigrant father and asking officials to take the post down.
  • Joe Rogan criticized deportations of Venezuelan men to El Salvador’s CECOT prison in March and called summer ICE workplace raids "insane."
  • Andrew Schulz said in July that Trump is doing the opposite of what he voted for, citing war funding and higher spending as reasons for his disillusionment.
  • A Daily Caller write-up notes a New York Times/Siena poll showing 66% of voters aged 18 to 29 disapprove of Trump, signaling potential erosion with the young male audience these creators reach.
