Trump Calls Howard Stern A ‘Woke’ ‘Broken Weirdo,’ Stern Says It’s A ‘Compliment’

Donald Trump slammed Howard Stern by calling him a “broken weirdo,” continuing the feud between the two of them.  

Trump took to Truth Social to rant about Stern, where he wrote, “The real Howard Stern is a weak, pathetic, and disloyal guy, who lost his friends and MUCH of his audience. Until just recently I haven’t heard his name mentioned in years.”

The former president went on to explain that he no longer is friends with Stern because “he went Woke.” He continued to assert that “nobody cares about him any longer” and that he doesn’t “know what they (really!) pay him, but it shouldn’t be much. His influence is gone, and without that, he’s got NOTHING.”

He ended his statement by arguing that Stern is “just a broken weirdo, unattractive both inside and out, trying like hell to be relevant!” 

The two men used to be friends and Trump had multiple appearances on Stern’s show. Their topics of conversation were controversial, especially when they spoke lewdly about women, including Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump. 

A change in their relationship occurred in 2016 when Stern noticeably distanced himself from Trump and his presidential campaign. Since then, he has criticized Trump publicly on various occasions, igniting the feud. 

Stern commented on Trump’s statement on The Howard Stern Show, stating that he takes people calling him “woke” as a compliment. 

“I hear that a lot that I’m not good anymore because I’m woke,” Stern shared on his show. “By the way, I kind of take that as a compliment, that I’m woke. I’ll tell you how I feel about it. To me the opposite of woke, is being asleep.”

He continued to explain that “and if woke means I can’t get behind Trump, which is what I think it means, or that I support people who want to be transgender or I’m for the vaccine, dude call me woke as you f—ing want.” 

He shared that he is vaccinated against Covid and that he’s “not for stupidity.”

He continued stating, “Thank you, CVS. I went over there 9 a.m. and got myself that new vaccine for Covid. F—ing science. This f—ing country is so great.” 

When speaking about the 2020 election Stern asserted that, “I am woke, motherf—er, and I love it. I want to be awake. I want to read legitimate news sources. Here’s how woke I am. I believe the election was not rigged.” 

Stern said last year that he “hates Trump voters” and “the people that Trump despises the most love him the most.”
