Oprah is the sweetest smelling person to emerge from the sewer of Hollywood sexual depravity, but that does not mean she smells sweet, in any objective sense. She knew, like they all knew. She helped procure young vulnerable women and fed them to Harvey Weinstein, like you would feed a live mouse to a pet boa constrictor. She has had her share of sexual abuse scandals at companies and schools under her control.

Oprah does not have clean hands in this. They may be cleaner than some, but they are not clean.

My lady-friend who resignedly voted for Trump, just emailed back—regarding my same comment, "The voters who elected Obama TWICE".:

True enough. If you abuse a dog it will bite you, so now women are fighting or biting back for generations of control and abuse by men in many ways from lack of voting rights to who knows what!

Scary times... :(

Yes. In the thick of the Weinstein mess, it was mentioned a few times that she was a facilitator / pimp (”fixer”, per Michelle Malkin) for him. She provided women to him for sex. Maybe they had a reciprocity agreement, with him providing women she wanted for the same reason.

Oprah is a black Hillary Clinton - entitled, zero political skills, and lots of cliches, shopworn stereotypes, and empty talk ...

Oprah would get demolished by Trump .... plus with his hard-campaigning style, he’d make sure everyone knew about her lesbianism, which she really doesn’t want .... Oprah is going nowhere

I did not fully appreciate how much more powerful a celebrity-driven personality-cult presidential campaign would be among Republicans.

Why post this drivel? Get a life. Do you enjoy throwing feces around?

On the subject of p&$$ies, I’d say it’s the whipped vs. the whipper (Barack, Oprah, respectively).

Actually it would be president Winfrey which kinda sounds like an old white guy so expect her to change her name during the transition. president Oprah Shabulu or some shiot.

“She’s unqualified, but she has what might matter most: ratings.”

In the history of American politics there was no candidate for President less qualified than Barack Obama.

Trump won because he said what he meant and meant what he said. It had nothing to do with celebrity. In fact I was smirking and shaking my head as he descended on the escalator. Within minutes he wiped the smirk off of my face...

Having long expected a celebrity-driven personality-cult presidential campaign to emerge among Democrats, I did not fully appreciate how much more powerful a celebrity-driven personality-cult presidential campaign would be among Republicans.

This hater was a NeverTrumper during the campaign. Now he is defining Trump as a mere personality, denying his many accomplishments in the business and international spheres, of which "tv personality" is merely the icing on top of a long career.

How does NR survive this stupidity? Have they no editors at all, now that writers can just email their copy and have it posted?

Oprah is going nowhere

She would lose against Trump because the economy is going to continue to improve. She is still the RATS best choice, because nobody they run can win so she is a good sacrifical choice. A traditional RAT politician is spared the career ending hit and they get to brag about how they ran the first black women at the top of the ticket. (And Oprah looks better than Shirley Chisholm did)

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.

Why not?

Well, for starters, her @$$hole already occupied the office for eight long years.

For a few years I worked in a plant in Cumming, Ga that made expansion joints. In the 1980's Cumming was the site of a huge demonstration, blacks vs the Klan, and it drew down Ophrah's show before it became a megahit for her. 2 men at the plant were on the show, one on the panel and one in the audience. Everyone was well behaved and Oprah was very nice. At the end of the taping she thanked everyone, gave a bunch of the ladies big hugs then walked outside to a gaggle of media folks, where her personality took a 180. She said she had never been so scared in her life, the people were evil, racists, really unloaded on them. They said she was a total phony.
