I wanted to smack Oprah on the side of the head. She seemingly had no idea what she was risking, with such a tepid opinion and endorsement. Those white males were already lined up and salivating to oppose Hillary and any Democrat, all in the cause of hate, fear and bigotry.
Meanwhile we lollygag around as if Hillary actually leads by double digits and no chance the nation will be stupid enough to elect Donald Trump.
I think every Democratic strategist and liberal talk show host last year should have been forced to attend a PGA golf tournament. That would have been a jolt and a half. It's all white males in those galleries and they were already sporting Trump's hats and spewing his propaganda alongside every tee box, fairway and green. Somehow we wanted to pretend those people either didn't exist or weren't going to vote.
