No better than Trump? Seriously? I agree this celebrity president shit was a mistake, but Trump is a fucking unqualified clown. At the very least Oprah has charisma and you can respect her as a person. I wouldn't ever want to be alone in the same room with Trumplestiltskin.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-11 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
They said that she would be no better than Trump in that specific respect, not in general. Come the fuck on.

Also, Oprah probably wouldn't get into twitter arguments with other countries.

You're reading it too fast, possibly because you're in a hurry to be outraged. The secret says that in one specific respect, i.e. being out of touch with what the average U.S. citizen's life is like. Context is important.

I was going to say that Trump at least hasn’t promoted faith healers. Then I remembered that Trump “spiritual advisor” who thinks prayer will prevent you from getting the flu. Let’s just say they’re both stupid.

I won't vote for her either. I want a women president so bad but we need a qualified person in office. POTUS is one of the most powerful people in the Western Hemisphere. It's not a job for a celebrity or reality star. If Oprah wants to be a serious candidate she needs to start in smaller government and get some experience.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-11 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly. I have nothing against Oprah personally... for a rich person, she seems better than most. But POTUS needs to be someone with previous political experience. Being rich, famous and a good listener isn't enough.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-11 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I really like Oprah, but I feel the same way.

How is this fandom?

(Anonymous) 2018-02-11 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Oprah is an entertainment figure

(Anonymous) 2018-02-11 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I rolled my eyes when this came up. I respect Oprah as a business woman and all but I am really sick of people throwing around "oh he or she should be president" just because of a speech or a particular stance someone has. Being president is a job, and I want someone qualified for the role, which means someone who has been in some other political office and understands how the government works.

Even the most generous reading of Trump ever suggests that some of his 'gaffs' were from not understanding that you don't say or do certain things and you do other things. That's shit most senators and governors know. I'm sick of the presidency being a popularity contest. I want someone who knows the issues, not someone who looks nice and speaks well. Just because you like someone doesn't make them qualified for to be president.

ENOUGH unqualified celebrities as presidents without prior experience. Not her, not The Rock, and not Trump again.

+1,000! We need a president who actually knows what the fuck they're doing.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-12 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Not even Kanye or Kid Rock?

(Anonymous) 2018-02-11 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
It's hard to feel like her wealth is a unique factor, even if it is particularly staggering, when we're just not going to get a president any time soon who knows what it's like to not be financially comfortable.

I do think she would be a better president than Trump

But to be fair, so would a small potted plant at this point

I lost all patience with her that time she screamed racism because a high-end store refused to let her in.

And it turned out they were closed. Which she knew and was just pissed they wouldn't make an exception for her because she's Oprah.

She's a good talk show host but she'd be a joke as a president.

I'm slightly amused that this is still a thing, in spite of multiple statements by Winfrey that it's not.

random celebrities shouldn't run for president, they should run for governor of California as God intended

I disagree.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-12 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
It's because she's black and a woman, she would be better in that respect. Unless you think money erases having to deal with racism and sexism. Also, she was once poor and seems to have empathy, which Trump appears to lack.

I don't think she's at all qualified, but that's a different argument.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-12 06:22 am (UTC)(link)
she has said she doesn't have interest in running though, so who cares and why is this still a thing?

I want her to run...

...As a republican, so I can see all the proprah people disavow her as a racist and misogynist.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-13 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
I recall her not knowing the current price of petrol (at that point in time) because she doesn't drive. Her chauffeur drives her!
