Oprah Winfrey for US President?

March 01, 2017 20:37

The improbable political rise of Donald Trump has led Oprah Winfrey to think about whether or not she could become the second TV entertainer to work in the Oval Office.

Oprah told Bloomberg interviewer David Rubenstein that before Trump won the November election, she thought she was unqualified to be president.

But not anymore.

"I actually never thought that that was I never considered the question, even a possibility," she said.

But when reality-show icon Trump beat longtime politician Hillary Clinton, she said, 'I just thought, "Oh! Oh!"'

'I thought, "Oh, gee, I don't have experience. I don't know enough. I don't."

'And now I'm thinking, "Oh! Oh!"'

Oprah would be the first woman president if she were to leverage her near-universal name ID and nationwide support to match Trump's political lightning moment.
