“‘I’d like to buy a “G” like Pat.’
Had the pleasure of meeting the #goat himself Pat Sajak last night at dinner,” Glenn wrote.
“Definitely a television icon.
‘I’d like to solve the puzzle’ MTG.”
On Twitter, some were outraged over the photo of him with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
“Never been a fan,” one userwrote, in part.
“I’ve always wished Wheel of Fortune would replace him.
Maybe now is the time.
“Counteredanother, “He is entitled to his own political beliefs.
Being a game show host is just a job.”
Others were less surprised.
(Sajak later insisted he was joking, according toCNN).
Responding to the criticism.
Rep. Greenetweeteda clapback: “There is nothing more pathetic and hypocritical than the left’s whiny cancel culture.
I’d like to solve the puzzle c’mon.
And why should you care what I think?
I’m a TV game show host.
