The clip as a whole sheds interesting insight into the thought processes, which guided him during the first time he entertained running for the presidency. Elsewhere on Youtube, you can find interviews where he spoke eloquently about North Korea, Russia and prescient points he made...long before his time would finally come.

If Trump had picked Oprah as his vice President, he would be dead by now.

Pence is his Insurance policy against assasination by crazy leftists.

This was back in 1999. But i think it’s worth noting how nuch respect our supposedly racist/sexist president had for a black female peer.

1999?

He probably figured her bulk could sustain him through the impending Y2k chaos.

Trump considering a black woman for VP??? No way!

So what happened between 1999 and 2015 that turned Trump into a racist and sexist???

Back in those days Oprah hadn’t announced to the world that she hated white people. So ... no one knew about her secret bias.

Oprah didn’t show she was a racist until Obie ran for president.

A lot of things that were hidden are no more hidden. Thank you, President Trump for forcing them into the light.

The point is that in 1999 or whenever I sure as Hell wouldn’t have voted for any ticket with Oprah on it. Would you?

I thought we put this Oprah thing to bed a while ago? Thankfully, she has confirmed she won’t be running for anything.

Yes its just interesting to note that Trump literally voiced interest in her as a runningmate (in seriousness) back in the day.

We’ve all said and done stupid things. That was before Trump woke up to see the swamp.

As I learned in 1976 I cared what the head of the ticket was saying

Well, if both Mike Pence and Oprah Winfrey hear from God, then wouldn’t a Pence-Winfrey ticket be a better pairing?

Making idiotic comments about Doprah as VP is one reason Trump didn’t get support from more citizens. Oprah is as much a rotten leftist pig as anyone in homowood.

Never in 10 lifetimes. Doprah is as rotten as any celebrity with a mansion.
