If she were the candidate, the media would immediately paint a positive picture of her. She would become the champion of the poor, a genius, beautiful, charming, charismatic, a “committed Christian”, a champion of all races, fair and just, bla bla bla.

bammy, an America-hating marxist atheist with extremely strong emotional ties to *slam, was presented as a “committed Christian” who loved America, a genius, God, handsome, bla bla bla. A public with its collective head up its collective anus bought it and elected the guy twice.

It’s not about Trump; the appeal is about the economic nationalist agenda. It figures no one at interNational Screw Offline gets it.

Yup because she’d probably have a nervous break down if they told her how the game really works.

I she gets elected, I would think about moving to Poland. Naa, I can’t afford that. I’d be prepping hard for bad times though.

Of course. Anything to salvage their now long gone credibility and reputations. There is an “I told you so” somewhere to be found. But where is it? If the never trumpers find it the howling will never stop. If not, they are cooked.

Oprah was a visitor to Hartford when her BFF was a news anchor at WFSB. One day, I was in a restaurant when they came in. They were rude to the waitstaff and the customers there. That’s not the only time I dealt with O. My ex girlfriend’s brother was a waitstaff at another Hartford restaurant and she berated him for not serving her quickly. Rude POS....

Not at all. If Trump can get elected, so can Oprah. I wouldn’t be dismissive of an Oprah candidacy.

Somebody needs to tell Lowry that ‘half the country’ began to despise Oprah when she chose to cast her lot with Obama.

Obama was twice elected president.

You all had better pay attention here. That lady is practicing her run

Yep. Lots of people laughed at Donald Trump. I won’t laugh at Oprah Winfrey.

Absolutely take her seriously and start the opposition research right now! The public domain is full of her racist comments and pictures with luminaries like her BFF Harvey Weinstein, all of which will make a great collage.

It’s lose lose for Oprah. There is no compelling reason for change when the economy is screaming, and the economy will be screaming in 2020.

I think the Trump branding would be a lot of fun!

“Soapy-Oprah”
“Cryin’ Oprah”
“Loser Winfrey”
“Doperah”
“Dopey-O”

...Just want to get ahead of it.

Some white guy to make the white suburban women, who aren’t quite through, destroying the country yet, feel safe.

Burn her out now; don’t wait. Shouldn’t take long.

Are you really that ignorant, or do you have to work at it?

Go ahead Oprah, ya feelin’ lucky? Go ahead, run for President....

When the press gets done with you, you will think a trip to the Proctologist was less invasive.

The press will get in line to look where the sun don’t shine......freedom of the press, remember?

I have some personal knowledge of Oprah here. From years ago when Oprah decided to run the Marine Corps Marathon. Talk about self-centered, demanding and short tempered.....

Trump has nothing on you for petulance and rudeness.

"Backwards Harpo"?

Her name is "Harpo" spelled backwards...maybe someone can come up with a nickname that will make people think of Harpo Marx every time they hear her name mentioned.

Of course it's unfair to Harpo to make the association. Compared to Oprah, he's Plato.

She might get more enthusiastic responses from two of Hillary's core groups--blacks and unmarried women--but it is hard to see her doing even as well as Hillary among white men. I think her electoral college total would be lower than Hillary's.

Gayle King, her BFF...(or lover). At least, they could sell the VP house, to save money...oh wait, Dems and saving money, that's an oxymoron...😁

Indeed they have a spending fixation.
