webfact Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Trump blasts Oprah over 60 Minutes episode By Rich McKay U.S. President Donald Trump meets with law enforcement at the Broward County Sheriff's Office in the wake of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, U.S., February 16, 2018. REUTERS/Eric Thayer (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump blasted media mogul Oprah Winfrey on Twitter on Sunday night over a segment on CBS's 60 Minutes programme and again said he hoped she would face him as an opponent in the 2020 presidential race. Actress and television host Winfrey, now a contributor to the CBS programme, led a panel of 14 Republican, Democrat and Independent voters from Grand Rapids, Michigan in a wide ranging discussion about Trump's first year in office. Trump tweeted: "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!" Winfrey has told various media outlets, including Entertainment Weekly, that she is not running for president, but has considered it, after there was much recent media speculation. The panelists ranged from voters who said "I love him more and more every day," to others questioning Trump's stability, saying, "All he does is bully people." Winfrey made no declarative statements for or against the president in the programme. But she did ask questions ranging from whether the country is better off economically to whether respect for the country is eroding around the world.

Popular Post Gecko123 Posted February 19, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) Trump seems to be at his absolute worst when attacking women. His history of ugly personal attacks is well-documented: Carly Fiorina, Meryl Streep, Megyan Kelly, Rosie O'Donnell, Mika Brzezinski, Heidi Cruz, Alicia Machado, Elizabeth Warren, Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Popular Post helpisgood Posted February 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) I am willing to buy that Oprah's a sensible, intelligent and well-meaning person. But, president of the USA? This sounds like part of the plot to that old movie Network, where the news division is taken over by an entertainment manager leading to farcical events. I think my point was better stated by the British comic who plays the character Jonathan Pie, a supposed TV news reporter. Warning: he does use the "F word" and one other vulgar term to better express his rant (if such concerns you): Edited February 20, 2018 by helpisgood 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what your sentence means, but yes I remember nixon, carter, ford, kennedy, carter and johnson. nixon was a not nice man, but he didn t grab em by the pu$$y and he wasn t an overt racist. carter was inept , ford was accident prone, johnson left the bathroom door open when he shat. trump is in a different league. He is a dangerous, narcissistic buffoon. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as people had their reservations about Trump, it was less scary than their knowledge of Hilary. And then Hilary called Americans deplorable, virtually handing Trump the keys to the White house.

The Old Bull Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Trump is a showman and a good one. The US dollar has dropped about 5฿ over the last year, so somebody on a $3000 pension has lost ฿15,000 per month but is he good enough to keep expats and people in the US rust belt still supporting him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
