Trump says Oprah should be ashamed: ‘It’s ridiculous…she’s a divider’ – Times of India

Donald Trump said he’s disappointed with Oprah and her dire warning that she gave on the election eve.

Former president Donald Trump reacted to Oprah Winfrey‘s warning that if “we don’t show up tomorrow”, it’s possible that there will never be a vote again and called it ridiculous. As Trump spoke after his vote at Madel Recreation Center in Palm Beach, Florida, he said Oprah should be ashamed of herself because she’s a major divider. Oprah made the remark on election eve at Kamala Harris’ rally in Philadelphia as she said, “If we don’t show up tomorrow, it is entirely possible that we will not have the opportunity to ever cast a ballot again.”
“Well, I think it’s ridiculous. Oprah, I was on her last show or one of her last shows, and they picked the biggest people and all of that, and made a big deal. And actually, I’m disappointed,” Trump said.
“I think Oprah’s become a major divider in our country and I think frankly she should be ashamed of herself,” he continued. “And you know who else should be ashamed? Fox. Because I’ve seen Oprah on Fox about 50 times making the same statement. And I think it’s a disgrace what Fox does ’cause everyone thinks Fox is so pro-Trump. They’re not pro-Trump at all. They’ve put Oprah on all morning long.”
Trump said Oprah chose Mar-a-Lago for the funeral of television executive and her mentor Roger King. “Oprah chose the location,” Trump said. “She said, Mar-a-Lago is the most beautiful place. Would it be possible to have Roger’s funeral at Mar-a-Lago in the ballroom? We did it. The only time I’ve ever had a funeral there. And I think Oprah should be ashamed of herself to say that. She should be ashamed.”
Then he mentioned that Oprah once wanted to run with him as the vice president as expressed in a letter that she wrote to him in 2000. “Too bad we’re not running for office. What A TEAM!” “And now she goes and makes statements like that,” Trump said Tuesday morning. “She’s a divider. And Barack Hussein Obama is a divider too.”
