Epic speech

Oprah read an empowering speech that almost sounded presidential. She talked about the challenges she had while growing up and the importance of "truth." Her speech was probably the best performance she has given in her entire life. She received a standing ovation that put the one that Meryl Streep got earlier in the year to shame.

Oprah 2020?

Her speech sent the internet reeling with requests that the 63-year-old Mississippi born star run for president in 2020. Media outlets even predicted her chances of winning are quite high if she were to choose to run. Fans referenced her interview with Donald Trump in 1988 when he was nothing more than a businessman.

The interview

In this interview, Oprah asks Trump about his desire to run for president. Trump then explains how he does not have any immediate plans to run, but if he were to run, he would probably win. He bragged about how he "wouldn't go in to lose" and how the "country would make a hell of a lot of money."

Trump vs Winfrey 2020

Now, people think that this interview is key to the 2020 elections where it has been predicted that Oprah could face off against Trump.

Presidential Promises

Would this talk show queen be able to hold her own against Trump? Or, would Trump still win because he already has four years of experience in the White House? Things would definitely get interesting.

Twitter loves the idea

People took to Twitter to show their support for the talk show host in the upcoming presidential election. Regular people and celebrities could not help but believe that Oprah really has a shot. This is one of the funnier tweets that can be found.

Maybe people should stop thinking about voting for charismatic billionaires with zero experience. We are already living with the consequences of making that mistake.
