President Trump Tears Into ‘A Very Insecure’ Oprah

Oprah’s Golden Globes speech gave the majority of libs a tingle up their legs.

It didn’t captivate me. It sounded like more of the same ol’ same ol’ feel-good rhetoric Democrats have been spouting for years. (To me, at least.)

I was DYING for President Trump’s response. It wasn’t very feisty. He said he likes Oprah and that running against her “would be a lot of fun.” Of course, he added “I’ll beat Oprah.”

“I don’t think she’s going to run,” he said.

After the hype died down, Oprah put the rumors to rest.

“I’ve always felt very secure and confident with myself in knowing what I could do and what I could not,” Winfrey told InStyle magazine. “And so it’s not something that interests me. I don’t have the DNA for it.”

“Gayle … has been calling me regularly and texting me things, like a woman in the airport saying, ‘When’s Oprah going to run?’ So Gayle sends me these things, and then she’ll go, ‘I know, I know, I know! It wouldn’t be good for you – it would be good for everyone else,’” she told the magazine. “I met with someone the other day who said that they would help me with a campaign. That’s not for me.”

People still don’t buy it. People change their minds all the time. Plus her recent activities suggest she’s still thinking about it. Remember this? She met with a bunch of politically diverse individuals in Grand Rapids and spent three hours talking politics “over pizza and beer.”  She’s just like us.

That event finally aired on “60 Minutes,” and President Trump let his true feelings soar.

Just watched a very insecure Oprah Winfrey, who at one point I knew very well, interview a panel of people on 60 Minutes. The questions were biased and slanted, the facts incorrect. Hope Oprah runs so she can be exposed and defeated just like all of the others!

That’s the old campaign-style Trump we know! I knew he was waiting for the right opportunity to take a jab.

The reactions are…well…exactly what I expected.

If you’re keeping track, this weekend alone on Twitter, Trump mocked Hillary, Obama, the FBI, Schiff, CNN, the media, Democrats, and Oprah, but not Putin or Russia, who he said are currently laughing at America, the country Trump himself is supposed to represent.

This is the behaviour of a man who knows that the walls are closing in on him.

A racist old man, who's suffering from severe mental illness, got mad at a TV show last night & decided to send a mean tweet to the shows host, Oprah Winfrey.

Predictably, he messed the tweet up & only managed to project his own deep-seated feelings of insecurity onto her.

Sad. https://t.co/btw4S1jDvn

He makes habit of attacking prominent African Americans. His tweets are dripping with fragility, envy, insecurity and projection. PR suffers. Flint has no water. Children are dying. But he’s tweeting about…. Oprah! #thisisnotnormal https://t.co/c8kTKdDZ00

You can call Trump a lot of things, but “a racist” isn’t one of them. Give it a rest.

Will Trump’s tweet motivate Oprah to REALLY consider running, or will it have the TOTAL opposite effect?
