Trumps claim that he knows Oprahs weakness

In case you missed it, Trump was campaigning last night in Penn for that SacfullofshitCone guy who faces Dem Conor Lamb on Tuesday.
Trump went way off script.
Called Chuck Todd a son of a bitch.
Really interesting thing he said was how much he wants Oprah in 2020.
Kept teasing audience that he knows her weakness.
Of course, he didn’t say what he thinks it is.

What do you think he was referring to ?
My guess is that this was a dog whistle of the long time rumors that Oprah is gay.
Even though she has shot this down many times, I bet he wants people thinking about it.

I recall Oprah saying once that her biggest weakness was bread. How will he use that against her? The mind boggles.

I think the 300-pound Kentucky Fried Asswipe might have been alluding to her past weight issues.

she might be gay. I don't think so. I really don't. Oprah would be open about it if she were.

Might Stedman be a "marriage" of mutual convenience? For whatever reason? Sure. I don't know how that could be a big deal, but perhaps that is what Trump thinks. Given his own marriage is clearly open to interpretation....

And yes, I am fully aware Oprah is not ACTUALLY married to Stedman.

Six-time-bankruptcy Trump is 100% leveraged out to the Russians and any international sleaze who will give him a loan, since he can't get one in this country.

This technique allows him to make any claim he wants. Did I mention all his claims are worthless?
