Meryl Streep claims Oprah Winfrey 'doesn't have a choice' and must run for President [tr]
U.K. Daily Mail ^ | 1/8/2018 | Julian Robsinson

Mery Streep has backed Oprah Winfrey to run for President amid an outpouring of praise for her Golden Globes speech.

The actress said Oprah had 'launched a rocket' after the former talk show host accepted the Cecil B DeMille award at Sunday's Globes ceremony in Beverly Hills, California.

Fans praised the 63-year-old for delivering 'one of the greatest American speeches' while others urged her to make a run for President in 2020.

That sentiment was mirrored by Streep, 68, who said the businesswoman now 'doesn't have a choice'.

Streep, who walked the Golden Globes' red carpet hand-in-hand with justice activist Ai-jen Po, told The Washington Post: '[Oprah] launched a rocket tonight. I want her to run for president.

'I don't think she had any intention [of declaring]. But now she doesn't have a choice.'

Oprah would help the Dems reclaim the White House just as well as she did to secure the 2016 Olympics for Chicago.

“Don’t forget the free car thing.”

For the record many had to decline the car because of the taxes and insurance which were not included. It amounted to an image building gimmick which worked well. That said I would not take this lightly. The support she would get from the left would make HRC’s nauseating devotion pale. I think she would have a shot sadly.

> Oprah would be easy to beat. Just point out who her friends are...all the crazy leftists. <

The same could have been said about Obama.

I have been told to tone down the Trump-bashing
because Oprah Winfrey has something to say.

Oprah won’t run, but she will suck the oxygen out of anyone’s campaign who wants to run making 2020 a shoe in for Trump.

Oprah is so rich and quite lazy. She didn’t work as hard as billionaire Trump. She just had to show up and be black and female. i.e., she’s too lazy to run for or be president and she knows it.

If a Kenyan from Indonesia can get elected when he is not a natural born citizen, anything is possible.

They’re saving the ineligible Ms. Harris for 2024.
They need a throwaway candidate for 2020.
My bet is it will be The Idiot Biden.

These people are so daft

Oprah has zero experience byond appealing to racially shamed ill informed emotive housewives , fellow celebs and other black notables

Her entire career of discourse is almost exclusively with people on her show to kiss her ass

Lord

The Left Is simply out of any ideas except race and homosexuality and abortion and feminism and gun control and immigration

Oprahs speech last night was more about the resurgence of feminism and women not as victims anymore than anything else

And in Hollywood the bigger culprit which is the homosexual assault on male children has barely been nicked
