During a 2021 appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, the Funny People actor called Sen. Ted Cruz a “fascist” for supporting Trump in questioning the 2020 election.
“His words caused people to die, and I’m making jokes about it,” Rogen told Colbert at the time.
Rogen also justified anti-Trump resistance in an interview with The Daily Beast in 2017, telling the outlet, “I don’t want to look back in 10 years and think, ‘I just didn’t say anything during that time,’ because it seems like a time when it’s very important to normalize dissent.”
However, he pointed out, “I’ve been very conscious not to insult people who voted for Donald Trump.”
