This is Oprah:
As you can tell, she isn't a woman who has time for a lot of BS, especially President Donald Trump's particular brand of it. And when asked about POTUS' recent tweet in which he called her "very insecure" after her appearance on 60 Minutes, Oprah had a lot to say. First of all, here is the tweet in question, and reminder, this is the man who runs our country:
"I woke up and I just thought...I don’t like giving negativity power, so I just thought, 'What?'" Oprah told Ellen. "What I actually really did was I went back and looked at the tape to see if there was any place that, [his claims] could be true. Did I feel like it was slanted or bias?"
Oprah says she reviewed every tape from the segment, and even called producers—but at the end of the day believes she was factual: "I was working very hard to do the opposite of what I was hate-tweeted about so, it’s okay."
Settled.
