We’ve already had #Kanye2020 and #TheRock2020, but of all the suggestions we’ve heard so far, #Oprah2020 does have a nice ring to it, don’t you think?
During a peer-to-peer interview on Bloomberg, the host broached the topic of glass ceilings and how America might finally be ready for a black female President.
It drew great applause from the crowd, and Oprah used the opportunity to throw some shade at the current Oval Office occupier.

Now, it is very clear to us that Oprah isn’t really considering running for office – at least not from this all-in-good-fun response – but that didn’t stop Twitter from collectively losing their minds at the prospect of it.
Oprah is considering running for president. “You get free college and you get free college!! Everybody gets free college!!” #oprah2020

I’d vote for @Oprah as president. She’s done more for this country in one show than #donaldtrump has done in a lifetime. #Oprah2020 😉

If trump manages to pull off 4 years as pres the only one that could fix the fallout would be a black woman #Oprah2020
