On the latest episode of The View , Goldberg, 69, theorized Vance, 40, was merely second-in-command on an 'interim' basis as she noted Musk's growing influence over the future administration. She questioned why Musk had not yet given up the social media platform he controversially purchased in 2022, X, in light of his affiliation with the president-elect, 78. 'I believe Elon Musk is the actual vice president. Yes, I believe that,' she said, adding Vance is 'kind of an interim.' 'But I believe that Musk, he's 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.' Trump and his 'First Buddy' Musk have remained seemingly inseparable over the last two weeks as the pair attended the UFC match together and Musk joined Trump for family meals and photos. Whoopi Goldberg believes Elon Musk is Donald Trump 's true vice president, and not his running mate JD Vance Goldberg, 69, theorized Vance was merely second-in-command on an 'interim' basis as she noted Musk's growing influence over the future administration Musk has joined Trump on calls with world leaders and, as a member of the administration's transition team, has weighed in on staffing decisions. On election night, Musk and his young son, named X, joined the Trump family photo at the urging of Trump, and Trump’s granddaughter in the days after said that Musk had achieved 'uncle status', reported Politico. A Trump-Vance transition spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, told the outlet: 'Elon Musk and President Trump are great friends and brilliant leaders working together to Make America Great Again. 'Elon Musk is a once in a generation businessman and our federal bureaucracy will certainly benefit from his ideas and efficiency.' Trump had repeatedly mentioned Musk and his space-related feats on his campaign trail. 'Did you see the way that sucker landed today?' Trump said in early October. 'It only needs a new paint job. That's a lot cheaper than building a new one, right?' At another October rally, he added: 'Elon is a great guy, he's one of our geniuses. We have to protect our geniuses, and we have to take care of our geniuses. There aren't too many of them.' He often spoke of how impressed he was with the companies engineering of rockets that could be caught after hurdling back to Earth. 'I believe Elon Musk is the actual vice president. Yes, I believe that. Because I think JD Vance , he's kind of an interim,' Goldberg said Trump, Musk, and Senator Kevin Cramer pictured chatting before attending of a viewing of the SpaceX Starship rocket launch on Tuesday While Trump selected Vance to be his running mate, Goldberg believes Musk is really second-in-command; Trump and Vance pictured at an election night watch party in West Palm Beach on November 6 Trump recently appointed Musk, along with entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy , to lead his newly created Department of Government Efficiency. 'It's a bromance,' one Mar-a-Lago resort member who has seen the pair interact told Politico, 'And they are having a blast.' Trump defeated vice president Kamala Harris earlier this month to become the president once again. He's since made a slew of controversial cabinet picks, including celebrity doctor Dr. Oz as the administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

On Football analyzes the biggest topics in the NFL from week to week. For more On Football analysis, head here . ___ Saquon Barkley has become the Shohei Ohtani of the NFL. There’s no better home run hitter playing football right now. Barkley had touchdown runs of 72 and 70 yards for the Philadelphia Eagles in a 37-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. He now has five runs of 50-plus yards this season and is on pace to break Eric Dickerson’s single-season record of 2,105 yards set in 1984. Barkley’s historic performance against the Rams — his 255 yards set a team record — captivated a national audience and turned him into a fan favorite for the AP NFL MVP award. He’s not the betting favorite, however. Josh Allen has the best odds at plus-150, according to Bet MGM Sportsbook. Two-time MVP Lamar Jackson is next at plus-250 followed by Barkley at plus-400. Running backs have won the award 18 times, including three-time winner Jim Brown, who was the AP’s first NFL MVP in 1957. Quarterbacks have dominated the award, winning it 45 times. Only three players who weren’t QBs or RBs have been MVP. It takes a special season for a non-QB to win it mainly because the offense goes through the signal caller. Quarterbacks handle the ball every offensive snap, run the show and get the credit when things go well and the blame when it doesn’t. Adrian Peterson was the most recent non-QB to win it when he ran for 2,097 yards and 12 touchdowns for the Minnesota Vikings in 2012. Playing for a winning team matters, too. Nine of the past 11 winners played for a No. 1 seed with the other two winners on a No. 2 seed. The Vikings earned the sixth seed when Pederson was MVP. Barkley is a major reason why the Eagles (9-2) are leading the NFC East and only trail Detroit (10-1) by one game for the top spot in the conference. Does he have a realistic chance to win the MVP award? Kicker Mark Moseley was the MVP in the strike-shortened 1982 season when he made 20 of 21 field goals and 16 of 19 extra points in nine games for Washington. If voters once selected a kicker, everyone has a chance, especially a game-changer such as Barkley. Defensive tackle Alan Page was the MVP in 1971 and linebacker Lawrence Taylor won it in 1986. Running back Christian McCaffrey finished third in voting last year and wide receiver Justin Jefferson placed fifth in 2022. The Offensive Player of the Year award and Defensive Player of the Year award recognize the best all-around players on both sides of the ball, allowing voters to recognize non-QBs if they choose. Wide receivers and running backs have won the AP OPOY award seven times over the past 11 seasons. McCaffrey was the 2023 winner. The AP’s new voting format introduced in 2022 also gives non-QBs a better opportunity to get MVP recognition. Voter submit their top five picks for each award, with a weighted point system. Previously, voters made one choice for each award. A nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the league vote for MVP and seven other awards. The awards are based on regular-season performance. Clinching scenarios The Chiefs (10-1) and Bills (9-2) already are in position to lock up postseason berths right after Thanksgiving. Kansas City clinches a playoff berth with a win over Las Vegas on Black Friday and a loss by Miami on Thursday night, or a win plus a loss by Denver on Monday night. Buffalo can wrap up a fifth straight AFC East title with a victory over San Francisco on Sunday and a loss by the Dolphins. Status quo in Dallas? It’s not a given that the Dallas Cowboys will be looking for a new head coach after this season. Owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday on local radio that Mike McCarthy could end up getting a contract extension. “I don’t think that’s crazy at all. This is a Super Bowl-winning coach. Mike McCarthy has been there and done that. He has great ideas. We got a lot of football left,” Jones said. McCarthy led the Cowboys (4-7) to three straight 12-win seasons, but they went 1-3 in the playoffs and haven’t reached the NFC championship game since winning the Super Bowl 29 years ago. Injuries have contributed to the team’s struggles this season, but Dallas was just 3-5 before Dak Prescott was lost for the rest of the season. The Cowboys upset Washington last week and their next four games are against teams that currently have losing records. If they somehow end up 9-8 or even 8-9, Jones could make a case for keeping McCarthy. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl Rob Maaddi, The Associated Press
