Whoopi Goldberg makes a daring statement regarding Elon Musk’s ‘true’ political position…
Elon Musk has already been selected for a role in Donald Trump‘s cabinet for his upcoming presidential term, but Whoopi Goldberg is feeling skeptical about it.
During the Thursday, Nov. 21 episode of The View, the actress and TV personality shared her unfiltered opinion on what Musk’s political involvement will be under Trump, who already said Musk will lead the so-called “Department of Government Efficiency” or DOGE.
But Goldberg, for one, isn’t buying it.
Instead, the 69-year-old Sister Act star insisted that Musk is going to be Trump’s “actual” vice president, rather than his real running mate, J.D. Vance.
“I believe Elon Musk is the actual vice president,” she said during Thursday’s broadcast. “Yes, I believe that. Because I think J.D. Vance, he’s kind of an interim. But I believe that Musk is the real actual vice president. He’s making decisions, he’s doing things. So I think, ‘Why doesn’t he have to give up X?’ I’m musing.”
It’s worth noting that Musk, a native of South Africa, is not legally eligible for the vice president role, as he is not a natural-born citizen of the U.S., which is a requirement for the position.
Goldberg—along with the rest of her co-hosts—haven’t been shy to share their honest thoughts on the political atmosphere this year, especially during the height of Trump’s campaign for the presidency against Vice President Kamala Harris.
Goldberg has previously voiced her decision to refrain from even saying Trump’s name, which is something she said is “not going to change,” even when he becomes the 47th U.S. president in January 2025.
