President Trump targeted Oprah Winfrey in a tweet on Sunday.
President Trump on Sunday took to Twitter and targeted Oprah Winfrey.
"Just watched a very insecure Oprah Winfrey, who at one point I knew very well, interview a panel of people on 60 Minutes. The questions were biased and slanted, the facts incorrect. Hope Oprah runs so she can be exposed and defeated just like all of the others!" Trump wrote.
His tweet was posted after the airing of a CBS' '60 Minutes' segment in which Winfrey sat down with Michigan voters for a discussion on Trump's first year in office.
"One year into Donald Trump's presidency, Americans remain divided, often unwilling to listen to what the other side has to say. It's happening in families, among friends and at the workplace," she said in her introduction, reports Politico.
Back in January, Winfrey's powerful and moving speech at the Golden Globe Awards prompted a frenzy of speculation about whether she would consider running for president in 2020. However, in an interview with InStyle magazine, she said the prospect isn't one that interests her. When asked about her political aspirations, Winfrey responded, "I've always felt very secure and confident with myself in knowing what I could do and what I could not. And so it's not something that interests me. I don't have the DNA for it."
