“And when you get finished with those jeans, and decide you don’t like them, give them to me. I’m gonna make two pairs!” the author boldly declared.
While all the hosts squeamishly laughed, Goldberg stayed silent. Navarro although did not take lightly to the comment and sounded off.
“Whoopi, let me just tell you something. Both Sara Haines and Jill Biden wore that dress already, on TV,” Navarro quipped, referring to Corcoran’s outfit, before ripping up her own question cards.
The entire table burst into laughter after the snarky comeback, but Navarro doubled down on her defense of her pal. “Donald Trump Jr. tried that on me. It didn’t work!” she explained, referring to ex-President Donald Trump’s son’s dig at the 49-year-old political strategists' weight following her false positive test for the coronavirus. “No no no.”
