Tragic Maui fire has Oprah's brand up in flames
Hot Air ^ | 6 Sep 2023 | Beege Welborne

Only Oprah Winfrey’s problem seems to be one of self immolation by association vice actual flames tickling her toes.

For such a carefully cultivated image after all these decades, old girl’s been coming apart at the seams these past few weeks, with jarring, insensitive gazillionaire misstep after misstep.

The things that might have passed unnoticed otherwise have been magnified by the enormous loss of life and property, the scope of the overall devastation, parcity of the emergency and relief response, and miserable performance of elected officials.

Let’s face it – Maui residents are pissed off.

They might have been a little torqued that the billionaire on the island escaped unscathed while they were wiped out. That festered some – even to the point of accusations of hiring firefighters for her estate making USA Today.

Big phat phony...

I think this is a mess and none of it helps the people of Maui in the least bit.

Nobody’s done right by them who has either the responsibility to or the wherewithal, which has been true since that first flame licked skyward.

The Democrats will exploit this tragedy for all its worth. It’s what they do.

“You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that: it’s an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.” - Rahm Emanuel

Wealth sovereigns can’t help it.

They are much too detached from the common man to relate to them.

Song hit Disco Inferno (Burn, Baby, Burn) by the Trammps.

Note: Was called “the greatest disco song in the history of disco.” For what that is worth.

The origin of the phrase burn baby burn————
Shouted out by the Watts rioters of 1965, the phrase “Burn, baby! Burn!” had actually gotten its start as a catchphrase used by the popular radio disc jockey known as Magnificent Montague. Then working at Los Angeles radio station KGFJ, Montague had been using the phrase to introduce records he felt were really hot.

The Leftists no longer think they need keep their masks on, they’ve removed them altogether.

Oprah has parlayed the color of her skin into a billion dollar business. Skin color matters.

Hopefully then the upcoming “Color Purple” musical movie will be a flop.

I read that she had a private firefighting company on her property before the fires started.

AND that she is buying up land.

Fat f-cking cow.

They don’t call her ORCA Winfrey, for nothing.

Oprah is just another Democrat puppet she has no real ability to bring change to anyone. She reads a script like Biden and Obama. Now she is seen for her waste of a life.

Jesus will have a few questions for her at the judgment. Her money will be gone.
