Donald Trump said it was not the real Oprah Winfrey who sat opposite Kamala Harris interviewing the vice president and the Democratic presidential candidate. Trump remembers that a long time ago Oprah asked him to do her last Network Television Show. It was an honor for Trump, with his family, to do it, he said. "When I watched her interview yesterday with a woman who is destroying, through her complete and total incompetence, America, I couldn't help but think this isn't the real Oprah, this isn't a person that wants millions of people, from prisons and mental institutions, and terrorists, drug dealers, and human traffickers, from all over the World, pouring into our Country," Trump posted on Truth Social.
"Kamala looked really foolish, couldn't answer the simplest questions on Inflation, the Cost of Goods, or our very porous and dangerous Border - No leader there, and Oprah just wanted to crawl under a table! Comrade Kamala Harris is mentally unfit to be President. She knows it, and so does everyone else!"
At his campaign rally in Wilmington, North Carolina, Trump asked the crowd whether they watched the Oprah interview. "“That’s not gonna be president, and Oprah didn’t know what the hell to do. Oprah was like embarrassed. She wanted to hide under the table, but she’s a professional, and she was able to sort of disguise it," Trump said.
It is true that Oprah and Donald Trump were close and their relationship once was that of mutual admiration. In 2000, Oprah wrote a letter to Trump in response to an excerpt that Trump sent her from his book "The America We Deserve". Trump referred to Oprah as his first choice for vice president, if he runs for the president. "Too bad we're not running for office. What A TEAM!" Oprah wrote. But things changed between Oprah and Trump as Oprah endorsed Hillary Clinton in 2016. This time, Oprah made a surprise appearance at the Democratic National Convention and endorsed Kamala Harris.
