Oprah Winfrey on Trump’s Victory “Hope is Still Alive”
Staunch Hillary supporter Oprah Winfrey is ready to give Donald Trump a chance.
She says that “hope is still alive,” and was she was moved by Trump’s acceptance speech, noting that Trump appeared humble as the enormity of his victory hit him.
From Hollywood Reporter:
“I could sense, maybe I’m wrong, but I could sense from Donald Trump’s body language even when he came out for the acceptance speech, that brotha has been humbled.”
The media mogul, who was vocal in her support for Democratic hopeful Hillary Clinton, found some comfort in watching President Barack Obama and President-elect Trump meet with each other at the White House.
In an interview with the Associated Press, Winfrey said “hope is still alive” after Obama said he was encouraged by Trump’s willingness to work with his team during the transition of power. The meeting between Obama and Trump lasted nearly 90 minutes.
Winfrey didn’t think Trump being elected was a repudiation of Obama. She credits Trump’s victory to his millions of supporters who felt like their voices had not been heard.
“I could sense, maybe I’m wrong, but I could sense from Donald Trump’s body language even when he came out for the acceptance speech, that brotha has been humbled by this world thing,” she said. “I think it’s a humbling process that now you literally have the weight of the world on your shoulders.”
