Pat Sajak and Vanna White are the longtime hosts of Wheel of Fortune. Recently, a photo of Pat Sajak with Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene went viral online and many fans were not happy. Some were talking about his political views while others even vowed to stop watching the popular game show.
A political figure even weighed in that it has been well-known that Pat is a conversative and said this was old news. Former U.S. House of Representatives candidate Johnny Akzam said, “This isn’t news. It’s well known Pat Sajak is a raving conservative. Watch the show, don’t watch the show, but he’s about to retire and y’all are late by over half my life.”

Another person pointed out that Chuck Woolery, the original host of Wheel of Fortune, also faced criticism for his political views. Temple University Professor, Marc Lamont Hill, wrote, “First Chuck Woolery. Now Pat Sajak. Are all game show hosts trash?”
