Trump says he hopes Oprah runs: 'It would be a painful experience for her'
The Hill ^ | 03/10/18 | JOHN BOWDEN

Posted on 03/10/2018 9:39:10 PM PST by conservative98

President Trump on Saturday mocked Oprah Winfrey at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, saying that he hopes the billionaire declares her candidacy for president in 2020.

At a rally for Pennsylvania state Rep. Rick Saccone (R), who is running for Congress this year, the president said that a Democratic challenge against him would be a "painful" experience for Winfrey, who has publicly stated she has no plans to run.

"I would love Oprah to win. I would love to beat Oprah. I know her weakness," Trump told the crowd. "Wouldn't we love to run against Oprah. I would love it. I would love it. That would be a painful experience for her."

Trump has been trying to pull Oprah into this make shift street fight, but so far, she’s not taking the bait, at least not overtly.
I’m sure he has his reasons for trying to make this a thing.
What those reasons are, who knows?

Inquiring minds will want to know OPRAH’S weakness.

Add it up...Oprah knows virtually nothing on business and economics. Oprah knows nothing much on working-class families or the pains of NAFTA. Oprah probably can’t connect to 50-percent of female voters. To the black community, Oprah is just a reality-TV creation and can’t relate to present-day problems in the black community. If you were looking for someone even weaker than Hillary....Oprah is it.

He said he knows her weakness. What do you suppose that would be? Food? Adoring fans? Steadman? Wo_Man? Travolta? Purses? Money? Whatever... asking him not to poke a stick in the cat cage. She is a feline and those can never be trusted. Sneaky little devils with very sharp claws.

Keep America Great = KAG?
MAGA, continues to be a project in work.

Carry on Mr. President. Stunning job you are doing and we are SO PROUD of you. And they said it could never be done? Guess you showed them how little they know

But Oprah has repeatedly said she’s not interested, while Kamala Harris is. I could easily see Michelle Obama being flattered into into running, even if just to lose the primary and become a new Kingmaker. Oprah does not present a clear and present danger to the future of the republic, as the other two women do.

10 Mar: India Today: Hillary Clinton: America didn’t deserve Donald Trump as president, he won a TV reality show
Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton today tore into US President Donald Trumps election campaign strategy saying that he won the first TV reality election in the US. She said that on the basis of what he said in the election campaign in 2016, America did not deserve to have Donald Trump as the US president.

She said that while she ran an election campaign that was done on conventional lines talking serious issues but the other side behaved as if they were participating in a TV reality show. Clinton said that while she ran the presidential campaign like a mother who was telling the kids to eat spinach because it was good for health while the other guy was saying go eat fast food and have ice-cream.

Speaking at the final session of India Today Conclave 2018 in Mumbai, Hillary Clinton repeatedly said that there was Russian interference in the US presidential election of 2016. Terming the alleged Russian interference in the US presidential election as more than alarming, Hillary Clinton said Russian agents used platforms like Facebook to attack my campaign and spread misinformation.

She said Russian interference was not only intended to damage me and the electors but the Russian agents were trying to flare up tension in American society. They even held demonstrations, she claimed, to influence public opinion during the US presidential election.

The Russians, she claimed, are still playing with the American society and trying to turn Americans against each other. She further said that the Russian interfered with the Egyptian election. The Mexican election could be their next target, Clinton said...
She said that some may try to use social media to turn Indians against one another.

10 Mar: India Today: Hillary Clinton praises Modi for Paris deal, calls Donald Trump’s decision shameful
Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton today said that President Donald Trump’s decision to pull out of climate change deal signed by world leaders in Paris summit in 2015 was shameful. In a discussion at India Today Conclave 2018 in Mumbai, she praised the role played by India in taking the leadership role at Paris climate summit...

Clinton said that the Indian government took every other country on board to create awareness about the perils of climate change...
She said the world is counting on India’s leadership on climate change.

I want my Prime Rib well done, please, or just don’t bother serving it. I won’t eat that soft pink chewing gum.
Please pass the Arugula.

You explained it perfectly. She is everything the Left thinks Trump is by labeling him a “Reality TV Star”. A TV show was not what made him successful, it only came afterward.

"What do you suppose that would be?"

According to her commercial, its bread. Having said that, I suspect that anyone who looks up her past and does a bit of reading between the lines can clearly see a story more significant.

The most painful experience for Orca would be getting ripped away from her billionaire lifestyle to hit the campaign trail 18 hours a day - no way could she match Trump’s energy and focus. He still identifies with ordinary working people, while she’s been in a bubble for several decades now.

I don’t think she can be taunted or flattered into running, there’s too great a risk of failure and discomfort.
