So here’s a thing that happened: In response to rumors that Oprah is “actively thinking” about running for president in 2020, Donald Trump has already gone on the offensive.
“Yeah, I’ll beat Oprah,” he said, smugly, at a press gathering earlier today. “Oprah would be a lot of fun. I like Oprah.”

Trump went on to say that he doesn’t think “she’s gonna run” and insisted that he knows her “very well.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Then, unable to not make everything about himself, he added, “You know, I did one of her last shows. She had Donald Trump—this was before politics—her last week. And she had Donald Trump and my family. It was very nice.”
Watch. Or don’t.

A racist, white f#ck is talking about beating a black woman. Not too far off there, Grand Wizard. Oprah had better not go Ralph Nader on us, splitting the vote, allowing some imbecile GOP’er may slip in again. Our country is being run by greedy thieves.

George Wallace, Ralph Nader, Ross Perot, Bernie Sanders. Yea, having an extreme ideologue hanging in untill the bitter end has not worked out to well for either party. Not that I am putting Oprah in that category. She would burry the orange Nazi.

You can’t leave the late John Anderson and his 1980 third party attempt (which took votes away from Carter, not Reagan). I didnt vote in the last election but were she (Oprah) the nominee I would vote for her or even ol’ Sister Sarah Palin over that orange haired idiot. At least Palin was a governor first and reality show bore second. I think her family would clearly be the last nail in the coffin regarding a GOP controlled white house. Trump has successfully proven the GOP hypocrites on family values.

She’s not running. Never was going to and did anyone really think she was? Oprah is far better suited in her current arena
OzJosh
Precisely what they said about Trump. For thirty years.
Zambos271
Was he really speaking in third person? And he never skips a beat on promoting his brand.

donald, you couldn’t beat oprah in thumb wrestling.
He BGB
The terrible things he attacked hillary about, “nasty woman”, lock her up, etc., can you imagine his attacking a successful black woman who is more beloved than he?

Funny how you libs see attacking a successful black woman as taboo, but attacking a successful white man is a-ok, especially if he’s straight.

@HeBGB
So we’re not allowed to disagree with Oprah or point out anything negative about her views because she’s black and a woman….ok…
Whatever happened to judging someone not by the color of the skin but by the content of their character? If Oprah’s views on issues don’t coincide with someone else’s views then they full right to point out why they feel she’s wrong. It has nothing to do with her being black and a woman
That’s why the left want her to run so badly. They can pull the race card and the woman card anytime someone tries to attack her. Also, the left has been mocking people for voting for Trump saying we shouldn’t vote for celebrities, what changed?
Bob LaBlah
@mhoffman953…………………try being optimistic. Who knows, she just might be another Golda Meir.

Good to see the sock puppets working down their lists of logical fallacies to attack this. Miss Hoffman/Brody are a lickspittle trumptroll

@Juanjo
There aren’t any logical fallacies in what I wrote, I pointed out the hypocrisy of people wanting Oprah to run and the ridiculousness that if someone disagrees with Oprah on issues it’s because she’s black and a woman
Also, why do you call yourself “Juan” when your name is John?

Like Hell he would.

As a black Hillary, Oprah would be a disaster. She should stick to her current job posing on the cover of her own magazine called Narcissist Central.
SiamSam
No no no, Jaxton. Oprah would be a wonderful candidate to run against Trump. We should encourage, beseech, beg her to run. Are you with me? 😉

Actually, if Trump manages to stay in office till 2020, and his promises of more jobs, tax relief, more stock market increases, and dissolution of ISIS continue to become truth, yes, he most definitely will beat her. His bizarre tweets will be taken in stride, and he’ll be able to say pretty much what he wants. The media will get bored constantly trying to bring him down, and we’ll have another memorable 4 years of President Trump.

THE BEST TIME LINE! #MAGA

The net is closing on Traitor Trump. Just read Glenn Simpson’s Congressional testimony all the way through, and you’ll see that he and his family, his administration, and the GOP are in very serious trouble. The FBI basically told Christopher Steele that someone else had corroborated key elements of that “dossier.”
So it’s anything but “fake news,” and the GOP know it but have continued to let Trump call it that and are even trying to confuse people by going after Steele, who was trying, as a British citizen, to protect US democracy, which is why Senator Feinstein released the testimony. There are other bombshells (about Trump and Russian gangster types, etc.) in it, but I’ll let people read it for themselves to see what they are. Trump had just better not lie to Mueller and the FBI the way he’s been lying to the American people for years now.

February 2018 will be something to watch.

Trump = winner. Enough said.

Trash Talk? Queerty, practice what you preach.
Trump is the only thing trying to keep the US safe from a tidal wave of foreigners (Mexicans and Muslims) who loathe homosexuals and want them to be made illegal or exterminated. You should be grateful.
