Your hero loves her, why don't you?

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.businessinsider.com/trump-relationship-with-oprah-winfrey-2018-1

President Donald Trump has long admired Oprah Winfrey, the much-beloved media mogul and self-made billionaire. But that may change now that Winfrey is reportedly considering a 2020 presidential bid herself.

Trump has spoken glowingly of Winfrey over the last few decades, even telling TV host Larry King in 1999 that Winfrey would be his top pick for a vice presidential running mate, should he run.

"I love Oprah. Oprah would always be my first choice," Trump told King. "She's a terrific woman, she's somebody that's very special. If she'd do it, she'd be fantastic. She's popular, she's brilliant, she's a wonderful woman."

And in 2015, Trump again suggested he might pick Winfrey as his presidential running mate, telling ABC News's George Stephanopoulos that the two would "win easily" if they teamed up.

"I like Oprah, what can I tell you?" Trump said in the interview. "She's great, she's talented, she's a friend of mine, she's a good person. I've been on her show. … I like Oprah, is that supposed to be a bad thing? I'd love to have Oprah, I think we'd win easily, actually."

Brilliant Man's Brilliant Daughter also gushed over Oprah's speech that was aimed mostly at Gross "Brilliant" Man

That is, Ivanka Trump agrees with Oprah and wants to hold gross men accountable but isn't quite smart enough to realize the whole TimesUp movement began with her father.

https://www.avclub.com/ivanka-trump-liked-apparently-misunderstood-oprah-s-go-1821910911

When Oprah Winfrey delivered her impassioned speech Sunday night, in which she acknowledged the struggle of abuse victims from all walks of life and vocalized her hope for a better future for the young girls watching at home, she no doubt hoped her message would be championed by women everywhere. What she probably didn’t expect was for one of those women to be Ivanka Trump. But that’s exactly what happened Monday night when Ivanka inexplicably retweeted Oprah’s speech saying how empowering and inspiring it was.

It should be noted that Ivanka Trump has a history of not understanding how words work, so it’s possible she didn’t know who Oprah was referring to when she said we shouldn’t turn a blind eye to “corruption,” “injustice,” and “tyrants.” Presumably, she also didn’t see the contradiction in tweeting “#TimesUp” when her father stands accused of numerous accounts of sexual assault and misconduct. Coming off of the explosive #MeToo movement, the Time’s Up campaign has been a rallying cry for those showing solidarity against systemic sexism. But it’s also lent its name to a legal fund which helps tangibly support victims of abuse, something actress Alyssa Milano was happy to inform Ivanka about.

Also, thanks to the handy @TrumpsAlert bot, which reports on the social media maneuverings of the Trump family, we know that, soon after watching Oprah’s speech, Ivanka starting following Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi on Twitter. The Great Moderator Ivanka Trump is getting 2018 off to a great start.

What bugs you? TV personality that's rich with no political experience? Hasn't bothered you so far.

I think it is painfully obvious what the likes of goob and muleturd don’t like about the likes of Oprah.
It’s not because she’s black, it’s because it should be ok to be “proud” to be white.

Mule seems to be very concerned all of a sudden about black violence in Chicago, so it can't be because she is black. Maybe because because she is female. I've seen no evidence here that they are concerned about women.

I don’t know, one might argue that his obsession with the content of Hilary’s stool could be spun as concern for her well being.

It will be fascinating to see the ways they will rip on Oprah, carefully trying to never let on why they hate her.

Stay tuned, good season of Whipping Post in the offing. Bumper crop of idiocy predicted.

Ask the families of all the murdered black people killed in cities run by Democrats.

If I did I'm pretty sure 100% of them would consider you an idiot. Those cities are Democratic because Republicans offer zero hope for them. No solutions to their problems. Violence in Chicago started to spike when their handgun ban was overturned. Yet you blame the Democrats. I'm sure those tax cuts for millionaires are really going to help out those in the bad intercity neighborhoods.

Republicans promote personal responsibility junior.
The illegal guns have been rampant during the failed Obama administration.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act favors the working class and has nothing to do with the failure of the Democrats to ensure public safety in the cities they control.

Suck it up son. The left has failed to protect the people they claim to represent.

Now go back to your celebrity worship act.

Off topic, but remember when Muleman was all "Peace and Ride the Mule!", pleasantly talking and trading music? What happened?

Thanks, Tom. That's why I said "off topic".

I think Oprah entering the political rehelm would be great. The more the merrier! Not sure I would agree with her on alot, but I don't know what she has to say on alot. I voted for Bernie Sanders in the primaries so anything is possible. I still long for less career politicians in our system. We have Trump...my jury is out on that still even though most have made up their minds one way or the other. It's not exactly what I had in mind sp far, but it is what it is. Oprah as President may not be what I have in mind either, but I'd likely prefer her over a politician.

Sounds like the answer of a coward who can't answer. What happened to you? Why do you let the left enrage you and turn you into a deranged creep?

Anyone who is all of a sudden angered by Oprah, for giving a speech about standing up to sexual harrassment, really needs to stay home. If something like that bothers them, then they are going to have a tough time in the world.

So, lots of replies BUT only one stepped forward and said, "I think this is a good thing." Thats surprising to me. I was on the TRUMP TRAIN pretty early on.. .. Democrats are unsure it seems. Fair enough, plenty of time to see what democratic leaders want to step up and make a play. After all, all democrats have to do is find someone more appealing than Tim Kaine and Hillary.

I certainly can't say I'm excited to have Oprah as a candidate, and I would guess there will be another Democratic candidate I prefer. I would actually prefer to have someone with political experience, seeing how bad our current president has worked out. However, anyone would be better than Trump. I could imagine a lot of Democratic candidates who would be embarrassing, but none could be more embarrassing than Trump.

Trump, like Ronald Reagan before him, IS a Hollywood personality. He had a hit TV show for years, has been a tabloid star for years, spent his days yucking it up on the Howard Stern show....his fans are the most obvious kind of celebrity worshippers.

goob - So on 1/9/2018 the below was asked of you earlier in thread. You're going to pass on an answer and showing us your creativity?

"goob - Do ya think Donnie has thought up a cute nickname for Oprah? Maybe you have some suggestions?"

I saw a female Republican on TV the other night saying she would consider voting for "The Rock", as he had joked about running for prez. She then went on to say she would even vote for "a rock" over Donald Trump.

That's a pretty fair comparison - the intelligence & abilities of Donald Trump versus a rock.
