Whoopi Goldberg Debunks Joe Rogan's 'Fake News' About Her 2011 Trump Interview
HuffPost
"Honey, Joe," Goldberg said Monday before playing footage of her actual interaction with Trump. "I think you missed this part."
Whoopi Goldberg isn’t letting Joe Rogan’s version of events get in the way of the truth.
The “View” co-host is addressing several falsehoods that Rogan made during a Friday podcast interview with Donald Trump, starting with her supposedly “favorable” treatment of Trump when he was “running for president” and sat down on her show around “2015 or 2016.”
“There’s a lot of fake news coming up so we’re going to clear some of it up,” Goldberg said Monday on “The View” after playing a clip of Rogan recalling the wrong time period. “It was actually, in that clip, is 2011 — four years before he announced he was running.”
“That’s the first thing they got wrong,” she added before producing even more receipts.
Goldberg debunked another curiously imagined claim that was brought up during the “Joe Rogan Experience” episode. Rogan said Goldberg gave Trump “a big hug and a kiss” when he walked out, and that Goldberg — as well as her fellow co-host Joy Behar and then-co-host Barbara Walters — “all loved you” at the time.
