HER TEACHING CAREER LIKELY IN
SHAMBLES TONIGHT.
WE ARE GOING TO END SHAME
MIGRATION, WE ARE GOING TO END
THE LOTTERY SYSTEM AND WE ARE
GOING TO BUILD THE WALL.
PRESIDENT TRUMP IN ASHVILLE
THIS EVENING ADDRESSING
IMMIGRATION BEFORE GROUP OF
FARMERS.
WASHINGTON MEANWHILE CONTINUES
TO TALK ABOUT THE EXPLOSIVE
BALK ABOUT THE PRESIDENT IN THE
WHITE HOUSE AMONG MANY
EMBARRASSING THINGS QUESTIONS
MR. TRUMP MENTAL HEALTH.
HE IS DEFENDING HIMSELF
AFTER THE PRESIDENT CALLED HIM
A WORK OF FICTION.
GOOD EVENING, THE TENSION IN
THE ACCUSATIONS AND THE CLAIMS
ALL OF THAT CONTINUES BETWEEN
THIS WHITE HOUSE AND THE AUTHOR
OF THE EXPLOSIVE NEW BOOK AT
LEAST IN PART BECAUSE PRESIDENT
TRUMP CONTINUES TO GIVE THE
STORY OXYGEN BY CONTINUING TO
TALK AND TWEET ABOUT IT.
PRESIDENT TRUMP WENT TO
NASHVILLE MONDAY TO PRAISE THE
GOP TAX OVERHAUL. AMERICANS
WILL BE PAYING LESS IN TAXES.
IN FRONT OF AN AUDIENCE OF
FARMERS, THE PRESIDENT MADE THE
CASE HE WAS FIGHTING FOR THEM.
AS WE PUT MONEY BACK IN THE
POCKETS OF ALL AMERICANS,
INCLUDING THE FARMERS, WE ARE
ALSO PUTTING AN END TO THE
REGULATORY ASSAULT ON YOUR WAY
OF LIFE.
BACK IN WASHINGTON THERE'S A
SIMMERING DEBATE ABOUT THE
PRESIDENTS FITNESS FOR OFFICE.
MICHAEL WOLF SET OFF A
FIRESTORM WITH HIS BOOK.
HE QUESTIONS HIS CONFIDENCE I
CONSIDER IT A WORK OF FICTION.
THE PRESIDENT SLAMMED THE
BOOK OVER THE WEEKEND SAYING HE
IS A GENIUS. I THINK IF HE
DOESN'T CALL HIMSELF A GENIUS
NOBODY ELSE WILL.
DURING THE 2016 CAMPAIGN
REPUBLICAN SENATOR LINDSEY
GRAHAM CALLED THEN CANDIDATE
TRUMP SEVERAL THINGS THAT CAME
TO HIS DEFENSE TODAY.
HE IS DOING A VERY GOOD JOB
ON MULTIPLE PARTS.
VOICES FROM INSIDE THE WHITE
HOUSE CALL THE ALLEGATIONS MADE
IN THE BOOK A PILE OF TRASH.
DEMOCRATS SAY THEY NEVER
THOUGHT PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS THE
RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB.
THERE ARE SERIOUS CONCERNS
FOR A LONG TIME.
ACTIVIST TOM STIER WHO HAS
ADVOCATED FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP'S
IMPEACHMENT SAID MONDAY HE IS
DOUBLING DOWN ON HIS EFFORT AND
PLANS TO DELIVER COPIES OF FIRE
AND FURY TO EVERY SENATOR AND
HOUSE MEMBER. THE OFFER --
AUTHOR DOES ADMIT THAT A LOT
HAS CHANGED IN THE WEST WING IN
PARTICULAR SINCE JON KELLEY
BECAME THE CHIEF OF STAFF OF
THE WHITE HOUSE.
WOLF SAYS THE ONE THING THAT
HAS NOT CHANGED, OBVIOUSLY THE
PRESIDENT HIMSELF.
WHAT ARE PEOPLE IN
WASHINGTON SAYING ABOUT THE
BUZZ OF OPRAH BECOMING
PRESIDENT? IF 10 YEARS AGO OR
TWO YEARS AGO SOMEONE WOULD
HAVE SUGGESTED THAT A
BILLIONAIRE TV STAR WITH NO
POLITICAL EXPERIENCE WOULD
BECOME THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES AS OVER IS,
-- OPRAH WINFREY IS, PEOPLE
WOULD LAUGH AT YOU.
DONALD TRUMP CHANGED THE
DYNAMIC.
THE WHITE HOUSE WAS ASKED ABOUT
THIS TODAY ABOUT A POSSIBLE
OPRAH WINFREY 2021 AND THEY
WELCOME THAT SAYING ANYBODY WHO
RUNS AGAINST DONALD TRUMP IN
THEIR VIEW IS GOING TO BE IN
FOR A ROUGH MATCH.
A FEW DEMOCRATS ALSO WAITING --
WEIGHED IN TODAY THERE'S A
SPECTRUM FROM BEING MILDLY
EXCITED TO THRILLED ABOUT THE
PROSPECT OF AN OPRAH WINFREY
RUN.
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT
DEMOCRATS DON'T HAVE MUCH OF A
BENCH WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR
NEXT CANDIDATE.
THERE OFTEN CRITICIZED FOR NOT
HAVING A PARTY LEADER, THE
QUESTION IS WHETHER OPRAH
WINFREY WOULD WANT TO RUN AND
ACCORDING TO STRATHAM -- HER
LONGTIME PARTNER SHE IS
CONSIDERING A RUN.
WE HAVE A PORTION OF THE SPEECH
THAT SHE GAVE. I PORTRAY
PEOPLE WHO EXPRESS THE UGLIEST
THINGS BUT THEY SHARED ABILITY
TO MAINTAIN HOPE FOR A BRIGHTER
MORNING. I WANT ALL OF THE
GIRLS WATCHING HERE AND NOW TO
KNOW THAT A NEW DAY IS ON THE
HORIZON.[ APPLAUSE ]
IT IS FINALLY GONE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
IT WILL BE BECAUSE OF A LOT
OF MAGNIFICENT WOMEN MANY OF
WHOM ARE RIGHT HERE IN THIS
ROOM TONIGHT.
FIGHTING HARD TO MAKE SURE THAT
THEY BECOME THE LEADER TO TAKE
US TO THE TIME WHEN NOBODY EVER
HAS TO SAY ME TO AGAIN.
-- ME TOO AGAIN.
Reporter: IT WAS A POWERFUL
SPEECH AND WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
POSSIBLY RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT
IN A FEW YEARS.
THAT ASIDE, WE TALKED TO A LOT
OF ANALYSTS AND STRATEGISTS ON
BOTH SIDES OF THE FENCE AND
THEY SAY OPRAH WINFREY WOULD
HAVE A LEGITIMATE SHOT AT EAST
BECOMING THE DEMOCRATIC
NOMINEE.
-- SHOT AT BECOMING THE
DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE.
SHE HAS THE MONEY BUT THERE ARE
SOME NOT -- UNKNOWN SEE HER,
YOU IMAGINE SHE WOULD PROBABLY
BE RUNNING AS A DEMOCRAT BUT
YOU DO NOT KNOW WHERE SHE
STANDS ON POLICY ISSUES.
SHE HAS NEVER BEEN POLITICAL.
BEING PRESIDENT IS ABOUT HAVING
A FOREIGN-POLICY VIEW AND
