Oprah Will Run In 2020 Because All The Other Democratic Candidates Are Even Worse

Guest Post by Kurt Schlichter

If I was a Democrat, like everyone at NBC and noted Cruise Director Bill Kristol, I’d want Oprah Winfrey to run for president too. She’s got all the qualifications to be a Dem candidate – she’s vacuous, she embraces all the required liberal taboos, and she hates the right people – that is, people like you. And, best of all, Oprah isn’t one of the horde of weirdos, losers, and mutations already threatening to run.

She knows how to string a sentence together, which is useful. Oprah wouldn’t be a human gaffe machine like Touchy Joe Biden. She’s also not 87 years old like he is – it’ll be a shame to miss out on what Joe says and does as age loosens his tongue. Someone get that man a Twitter account!

At one time, the noted naked he-nymph probably would have been a big threat to any Republican running for president. He’s not roundly hated like Hillary, and he seems amiable, if bumbling. But the whole wandering hands thing and all those snaps of him leering at uncomfortable-looking teens with a face doesn’t work for males of pallor in the era of #MeToo.

Those pics of Oprah cavorting with Harvey Fernseed won’t stop her – she’ll get a liberal gal pass like Meryl Streep. Remember, the liberals don’t really care. It’s all fake outrage designed to kneecap competitors. When a history of not harassing women, or enabling those who do, gets in the way of what liberals really want, it’s “Gropes away!” Right, Felonia Milhouse von Pantsuit?

Elizabeth Warren can’t be happy about Oprah considering a run. Big Chief Running Mouth is shrill and annoying, and you get the idea that she’s always on the verge of telling you to use your inside voice. Oprah is calm and soothing and offers mindless insights about how you have to be the very best you you can be, and how you always have to stand in your own truth. The rabble-rousing squaw wants to get people riled up and on the warpath. But Winfrey wants to calm them down, to make them relax, to allow them not to think, and to be swept away in the feel-good vibes. She wants to be the Oprah-oid of the masses.

Warren wants to keep resisting. Oprah’s secret is her unspoken promise of a return to normalcy, of calm and quiet. But, of course, that’s a lie. Oprah will be an activist liberal and will put a bull’s eye on those of us who refuse to fawn and applaud.

Bernie Sanders may run again, and he’s so crusty he makes Biden look like a whippersnapper. But the millennials seem to love him, which is why you have to operate under the rebuttable presumption anyone who is a millennial is too damn stupid to vote. It will be an exciting campaign with months of earnest dummies in Che T-shirts assuring us that true socialism has never been tried and that Venezuela is somehow all Trump’s fault.

It’ll be fun watching the accusations of collusion with the Russians against the guy who got married in Moscow while their flag still had a hammer and sickle on it. Just kidding! The whole anti-Russia thing is just another big fake outrage, like the anti-harassment fake outrage. As soon as pretending to be patriotic stops being useful to liberals, they’ll go back to hugging America’s enemies.

Let’s see, there’s Kirsten Gillibrand, because America yearns for another bitter Northeastern liberal nominee. She’s another one who hopes to ride the #MeToo fake outrage down Pennsylvania Avenue and stable it at the White House. The way she stuck the Clintons in the back probably isn’t going to help her raise money, though it was hilarious. But Kirsten comes off as hating men. Every guy has dated a Kirsten once. Once.

So she kind of starts with a disadvantage since men are unlikely to vote for someone who obviously despises them. Perhaps someday the Democrats will learn not to have candidates who seem to hate a substantial part of the voter pool, but probably not. The Democrat platform is totally based on hating a substantial part of the voter pool – the part you’re floating in.

Oprah superficially seems to love everybody. She’s all feelings and hugs, but a TV show isn’t the campaign trail, and since the liberal media no longer has a monopoly of coverage, she won’t get to write the script. The truth will come out. Oprah already has her own deplorable problem – there’s an interview with her suggesting a good chunk of non-liberal Americans are racist and need to die. These people are apparently not the very best yous they can be, and must therefore be purged.

Still, she’s got an edge over the other candidates too. From California, there’s Kamala Harris, who is as liberal as she is dumb, which is to say very. As the economy booms, it may be difficult to convince America to elect an advocate of a governance model that has turned the Golden State into the Hunger Games. Go east of I-5 – the reporters, the tech zillionaires and the Hollywood hypocrites never do – and California dreamin’ is a nightmare. California stands in its own truth, all right. Perhaps the answer is for California to embrace true socialism, instead of the current version. Yeah, that will help. Then California will be the very best California it can be, or something.

Andrew Cuomo might run on a platform that red staters should subsidize New York’s sky high income taxes. I yearn to see a mortified Andy and his brother Fredo out trying to connect to voters in Iowa – that would be amusing and almost worth it in and of itself. Oprah, in contrast, wouldn’t even need to build a rapport; she’d just buy everybody a tractor.

Oprah checks all the liberal boxes. She believes in science, meaning she thinks both heat waves and cold fronts prove global warming, that you can change your gender by wanting to, that vaccines are a conspiracy, and that Dr. Oz’s magic fungus extract will cleanse your body of negative waves, thereby allowing you to be the very best you you can be.

You know she’s going to hate guns in the hands of anyone but her private security force. You know that she believes in perpetual conflict over race, gender, and all the other touchstones of liberal hate-mongering. You know that a Winfrey administration would be filled with the same band of punks and hacks who brought us ISIS, North Korean nukes, and who abandoned the Iranian freedom fighters just before shipping their oppressors pallets of 100 dollar bills.

It’s painfully obvious that the Democrats are seeking their own Donald Trump, only without the rough edges. What is super amusing is to listen to the liberals n’ their Never Trump fellow travelers howl about how Trump is a no-experience entertainer, and then to watch them wet themselves over a no-experience entertainer because she’s all-in for the left. Muh principles, indeed.

Oprah represents their chance to impose a softer tyranny than Hillary would have, and thereby maybe avoid another counter reaction by the Normals. Oprah seems to be what Hillary never could be – nice. But under that nice exterior still lurks the same hatred and contempt for you that Democrats all share.

She is a never married, childless single woman with her only ‘accomplishment’ a daytime TV talk show. I can’t see single working mom’s much less married women flocking to elect a woman who has nothing in common with them.

I will never vote for a childless person, especially a childless woman, for anything. Women are biologically and mentally wired to want to have children, and most who choose not to wind up very unhappy later in life, feeling unfulfilled. I also think a lack of children skews ones view of the future. People with no posterity have no business making decisions that will effect mine.

Actually, Oprah probably represents the thinking, positions and attitudes of the Leftist side of the aisle quite well.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all to see her being the Democrat choice and maybe win the election as well.

Keep in mind that the Leftists consist of both Republicans and Democrats, as well as many independents and third parties. Leftism is more of an ideology than a party.

Are we to believe this little kneegrow girl from the deep south and the wrong side of the tracks is also BRILLIANT and the only one who can play 432D chess to fix things? Puhleese, these people are created, conjured if you will to perform for those at the top of the pyramid.

She would probably win considering the damn ignorance and stupidity of the typical American voter.And they will vote for her because she is ” popular ” .

It’s a long time between NOW & THEN, a lot can happen. She may just be attempting to drum up business for her channel which isn’t doing too well.
Since we are on the celebrity bandwagon, I think the perfect person to FOLLOW Trump in 2024 would be Mel Gibson provided he stay in character as Riggs from Lethal Weapon 1-4. 🙂

Oprah will not run, primarily because she is incredibly fat and lazy. Her last years of the Oprah show, they pretty much had to prop her up in the chair. She read off the teleprompter, clearly having done little to no show prep. She didn’t move from the chair for an entire hour. They did a lot of close angle shots to avoid showing her busting at the seams of her pantsuit. And that was almost a decade ago. Consider how much fatter and lazier she’s gotten in her retirement. There’s no way she could physically make it through a grueling 2 year campaign, let alone the rigors of the presidency.

Also, no one who is seriously running for president will let the cat out of the bag 3 years before the election. That’s because it gives your opponents a huge head start to dig up dirt, develop strategies, and monitor your every word for potential gaffes. The Dems were freaking out about Sarah Palin running in 2009, and I said the same thing. Nope, she’s not running, but giving off the appearance of maybe running is certainly powerful (and profitable.)

Oprah may be involved in the election as a kingmaker, more aptly a queenmaker nowadays, or even a puppet position in the potential administration, but she will not go for the top job.

Agreed. If she runs, she wins, but wealthy libtards get a lot more satisfaction taking pot-shots from the peanut gallery than having to hold down an honest job. Granted, Obama skated through 8 years without actually doing any work. At this point, I don’t see anyone else on the lefty side who could unseat Trump.

He didn’t mention the one who will run and win: Tulsi Gabbard.

She might wait til 2024, but she will likely be POTUS one day. She is perhaps unique in her ability to unite right and left.

Very impressive biography, including distinguished military service:

Elected to Hawaii state house at 21. (Youngest ever elected there.) Stepped down to be deployed with her national guard unit, becoming the first state official to voluntarily step down from public office to serve in a war zone. (earned Combat Medical Badge, which is given to medics who have treated soldiers, while under fire.). Went to military academy for officer candidate school. (1st woman to finish as the distinguished honor graduate in the Academy’s 50-year history.) Served as aide to Senator from Hawaii. Deployed for a SECOND tour, this time in command of an MP (military police) platoon. Elected to Honolulu city council. (serving as Chair of the Safety, Economic Development, and Government Affairs Committee & Vice Chair of the Budget Committee.) Now serving her 3rd term in the House of Representatives; on both the House’s Armed Services & Foreign Affairs Committees. Served as Vice Chair of the DNC, until electing to step down to endorse Sen Sanders.
Is pro veterans, and vehemently anti-interventionalist wars. #StopArmingTerroristsAct. Pro renewables. #OFFAct. Pro choice. Pro equal rights. Pro transparency. Pro campaign finance reform. Anti-superpac. Visited Standing Rock and Syria, instead of ignoring or parroting the narrative being repeated mainstream media.The list goes on. There is no confusion as to where Rep Gabbard stands on the issues, but that created by those pedaling this “conundrum” line.

She is easily, the most progressive member of the House.

Listen to her speak:

And Tulsi can suck a large root as far as I am concerned. She was shoved into the spotlight to push women being on the front lines alongside male soldiers which I don’t agree with . Drafting women may be progressive to you but I seriously disagree. They always say what you want to hear, get a clue.

Let’s see.
Pro renewables: Let me guess, these green energy projects are so good we need government to pay for them.
Pro veterans: That’s really sticking your neck out.
Pro choice: Let’s hear it for dead babies!
Pro equal rights: We’ve already got that; I suspect you mean equal outcomes.
Pro transparency: We already had the most transparent administration with the last guy; how’d that turn out?
Pro campaign finance reform/Anti-superpac (doubleheader): I’ll believe a politician will make it harder to fill their coffers when I see it.

Fuck Tulsi Gabbard and her money-grubbing, statist, anti-freedom views.

Regardless of the cult of personality and the checklist format for regressives, Oprah would struggle in a national election. Her policy positions would be more Democratic bullshit. Which is fine for the most of the Dem’s, but its not going to win over many non-Dems. Trump didn’t win b/c he was so well liked. He won b/c he spit in the face of the PC culture, and oddly enough that humanized him a hell of alot more than the other scripted robots. Trump’s policy positions, the wall, the 2nd ammendment, the end of apologizing for the US endlessly and a rhetorical focus on the US 1st rather than globalism resonated. Oprah would be a typical regressive in every category. So she would be running SOLELY on her cult of personality.

I’m not sure Oprah would be able to handle the immense grind of a campaign. She may be good for a speech once in awhile but she strikes me as a lower energy person, who would hate the campaign trail within a few weeks. Mind you presidential elections are harsh marathons now adays, and you damn well genuinely like people to handshake and do meetings endlessly. Oprah likes her fancy people, but I can’t imagine her pounding the pavement for a year. If the economy is doing OK or looks good (with the BLS lies etc) then her running would look even more of a stretch. Sanders is ancient and he isn’t waiting around, he most likely will run again despite being near 80. The real big question is Trump, can he still get some big things done? Do people decide that his abrasiveness is tolerable as long as the country is refocusing on the US rather than being a global “leader”. Does Trump run again in 2020, I’m not so sure he does, guess we will see how 2018 pans out. Regardless, the world and the US have a long series of issues that no President or politics are going to solve. The modern world has turned into a tower of Babel with no common culture, there isn’t anything to assimilate into and all big countries are playing shell games as an economy, while propping up a massive underclass. What happens beyond who gets to run for President is going to matter most. The US titanic is in an icy ocean full of nearly every country in the world propped up in a manner that’s not sustainable.

Metoo culture dictates that the presidential candidate must be a woman, with the evil man relegated to VP status, but never again will you see two white people on the Democrat ticket. So they might go with Gillibrand or Fauxcahontas on top, and maybe a Corey Booker type as VP.

Oprah has two major obstacles standing in her way. First, it is difficult to picture any self-respecting red-blooded male voting for a touchy-feely women’s talk show host. And second, she is, and has been for a long time, very cozy with Hollywood, an industry currently despised and loathed by many of us normals. Those are pretty big voting blocks that may stand in the way of a win.

Oprah would be the perfect president for this sick country. A comforting, vacuous mouthpiece reading a teleprompter daily and probably seeing the words for the first time.
