2020: Oprah Winfrey vs. Donald Trump?
IWB ^ | Gabrielle Seunagal

Recent news has indicated that Oprah Winfrey might be considering running for President in 2020. In a conversation with David Rubenstein, she smiled when asked if she would “break the glass ceiling” by getting elected for President. The show was actually taped back in December, but aired this morning, which explains the press it has received. Following Oprah’s remarks, people have speculated as to whether or not prior government experience is needed to campaign for office, given the victory of President Donald Trump. The political world is not a foreign arena to Oprah: In 2008, she campaigned for Barack Obama; eight years later, she supported Hillary Clinton, although with significantly less vigor.

I’d have a cyanide capsule and a bottle of JD to wash it down with just in case she ran and won.

I think the vast majority of Americans will like things just the way they are in four years.

If that’s the case then, if I were Trump I’d INSIST that all debates occur at selected Kentucky Fried Chicken and/or IHOP franchise outlets.

I have despised Winfrey ever since the TV Guide cover shot years ago where her head was superimposed on Ann Margret’s body. The woman is all about fraud. How could she ever be trusted as a president?

Oprah should not be underestimated if she runs, just as Trump shouldn’t have been. She was and is enormously popular with white women, who formed the base of her talk show audience. She would get a big percentage of the white women who voted for Trump last year. She could quite conceivably be elected based solely on that swing.

Wealthy, black, female, personable, and presentable.
Oprah would be hard to beat.

Oprah is too self absorbed in her “world” to be serious about truly helping the USofA.

The leftards just aren’t that good at trolling. You have to have some substance to make it a good troll.

If she does run, it will be interesting to see the bare-knuckle cage battle between her and Hillary for the ‘rat nomination.

Watch what you wish for. Trump had absolutely no chance of winning the primary, let alone the general election. At least that’s what all the experts were saying.

This is the same Oprah who said old white people should just die.... Well, unless they are joining Weight Watchers and providing Oprah with more income.

Oprah Winfrey likes her some Oprah Winfrey.

You've got to be pretty arrogant to start a magazine, name it after yourself, and put a pic of yourself on the cover every month.

No doubt she's arrogant enough to run. Only question is if enough people are stupid enough to vote for her.

Do you think the Presstitutes are going to allow that to be part of the Narrative?
Oprah is one of the popular persons in the country. She could create best sellers by simply featuring them in her book club.
She is a dangerous opponent and not to be underestimated.
