Talk about a half hearted endorsement!
I guess it's better than nothing. Way different than she treated Obama though when he was running.


“But there really is no choice, people. All the people sitting around talking about they can’t decide. This is what I what I wanna say — wait a minute,” she said, silencing Jakes to make her point. “I hear this all the time. You get into conversations — and there’s not a person in this room who hasn’t been in this same conversation — where people say, ‘I just don’t know if I like her.’”
But you don’t have to, Winfrey said, stressing that’s not the question voters should be asking.
“She’s not coming over to your house! You don’t have to like her,” she said. “You don’t have to like her. Do you like this country? Do you like this country? You better get out there and vote. Do you like the country? Do you like freedom and liberty? Do you like this country? OK. Do you like democracy or do you want a demagogue?”

What if you don't like her because you don't trust her? Vote for her anyway?

Apparently.

Because Trump is a 'demagogue'

Definition is :

"a person, especially an orator or political leader, who gains power and popularity by arousing the emotions, passions, and prejudices of the people."

Couldn't the same be used to describe Hillary?...

Seems people use these words but don't really know the definitions. They just hear people use them to describe people and repeat the words.

What if you aren't crazy about Oprah who seems to think she was sent from God on high to tell us whats what?

Maybe you shouldn't listen to her advice.

You think that's odd?

That's what many of us have been talking about since day one of this election.

This is why she doesn't have huge rallies. This is why you don't see bumper stickers and yard signs.

Trump is sooooooo evil that millions of us are willing to vote for Clinton while holding our noses. It's just a damn shame the GOP couldn't provide us with a better option.

You Republicans had what, 16-17 candidates to chose from? Yet you gave us Trump.

Many Dems aren't happy with Hillary. I've seen Hillary being called some pretty brutal names including the C word ...by Dems.

Is this the same Oprah that supported Obama LOL.

As Oprah sits on her high horse buying Hermes handbags for $50,000 and she's going to tell us how to vote?

She understands that even Democrats don't like a corrupt career politician like Hillary.

First Joe Biden, now Oprah admitting that the dems don't even like Hillary.

Um, no. Nobody likes Clinton and many fewer people than the media is trying to persuade you will be voting for her.
