On Monday June 12th, when Pat Sajak announced his retirement I’m sure media heads began to explode as they rushed to find a suitable replacement for this well-seasoned host of Wheel of Fortune. I’m sure they will come up with someone as they always do. Some of the top names being floated are Vanna White, Le Var Burton, John Michael Higgins, Scott Rogowsky, Wayne Brady, Michael Strahan, and I’m even seen Whoopy Goldberg’s name among others we haven’t heard about yet.
In my opinion (which counts very little outside my immediate circle of influence) I say keep race out of it and pick the most knowledgeable and likeable as the next host. If they go for name recognition or popularity or try to appeal on the basis of race or choose a certain Hollywood starlet in decline – it would spell misfortune for the wheel and the wheel would become just another memory. Either way I like what Pat Sajak said “If nothing else, it’ll keep the clickbait sites busy”!
I wish Pat a long and happy retirement out of the public eye – RTM.

Clarification of Real Truckmaster Blogs
For those who follow my blog posts on RTM blogs let me clarify and clear up some confusion.
I write highlighting the inconsistencies and hypocrisy of the far-left's war on anything Trump.
There are too many willing to argue without merit and I would be remiss attempting to argue against their ignorance, they have way too much experience.
My writings are my personal opinion intended to be educational in nature, a bit humorous, satirical, while being informative providing food for thought, which is sorely lacking today. For those who find my posts offensive, I am truly sorry, you have the right NOT to read them as have many before you. I will not attempt to change your mind politically, but provide the opportunity to show something you may wish to consider, thereby illuminating prejudice and misinformation! - I am the Real Truckmaster!

One thought on “The Misfortune of the Wheel”
He’s been goofiing around a lot lately. I like his style. I would say Vanna would be a good host.
