She said, "Elon has very many, what do you call it" when her co-host Sunny Hostin added, "Government contracts."

A person remarked, "Whoopi Goldberg is a joke and a complete embarrassment. She needs to face reality more," while another added, "SpaceX is the only company right now with the vehicle to go get our astronauts back. FFS."

"Whoopi reaches a new level of stupidity every day, it’s really quite impressive," an individual noted.
