Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question in for our American mamas. Dear mamas,
- 0:03Speaker 1: did you see the Oprah Winfrey town hall with Kamala Harris.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Well, let's ask our American mama's mama, mama, she said.
- 0:21Speaker 1: And joining us now our American mama's Ternettville and Kimberly burlesson.
- 0:25Speaker 1: So Oprah Winfrey held, you know, it's hard to call
- 0:29Speaker 1: it a town hall. This was this was essentially a
- 0:33Speaker 1: This was a campaign event for sure, for for Kamala.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Oph right, heavens, I did watch little pieces.
- 0:45Speaker 4: Yeah, so man, she kept like swooping into saber because
- 0:49Speaker 4: once Kamala and you saw that Kamala had what's the
- 0:52Speaker 4: feed that you can read teleprompter like answering questions, It
- 0:56Speaker 4: was already kind of pre planned. But even having that,
- 0:59Speaker 4: she wasn't doing well. And Oprah would come in and
- 1:01Speaker 4: just kind of like swoop in and say yes because
- 1:04Speaker 4: you were going to introduce that bill it and she's
- 1:06Speaker 4: like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah that.
- 1:07Speaker 3: That it was so manufactured. But this is what I
- 1:11Speaker 3: took away from the clips that I saw, and I
- 1:12Speaker 3: thought this was hilarious. So Oprah has had on her show,
- 1:18Speaker 3: King's Queen's Statesmen legends. Yeah, well, and celebrities like that.
- 1:25Speaker 3: And there's been a lot of people that she'll have
- 1:27Speaker 3: on there and they say profound things and she does that,
- 1:30Speaker 3: oh yes, to watch her do that with Kamala, and
- 1:35Speaker 3: it cracks me up that Kimberly still calls her Kamala
- 1:38Speaker 3: because there's this big thing that she's Kamala's. Yeah, she can't,
- 1:43Speaker 3: she can't help it. It's her, She's Kamala. But having
- 1:46Speaker 3: Kamala up there trying to do the word salad to
- 1:49Speaker 3: make herself sound so brilliant, but it's just just word salad,
- 1:54Speaker 3: full of nothing, no calories. And you have there's Oprah
- 1:59Speaker 3: who is just.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, Oprah who was friends with Maya Angelou.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Yes, actually so ridiculous, yeah right, And we would all
- 2:11Speaker 3: feel it. So this was so disingenuous. This was so manufactured.
- 2:16Speaker 3: And you know, the days of Oprah are over. We
- 2:19Speaker 3: don't believe her anymore. She We all were on board
- 2:23Speaker 3: with her during her heyday when she would come out
- 2:25Speaker 3: and go like, uh, oprahs give away. You know, she
- 2:31Speaker 3: would do that whole thing, and now she she's Whenever
- 2:33Speaker 3: she did that, we would know this was exciting. She
- 2:35Speaker 3: comes out she's like Kama Love's hair. She does it's like, oh,
- 2:39Speaker 3: this is my shtick, so I'm gonna do it kind
- 2:42Speaker 3: of thing, and it was so fake and phony. She
- 2:44Speaker 3: starts introducing these are the Swifties for Kamala. These are
- 2:48Speaker 3: the Republicans for Kamalah my favorite. It was such an ad.
- 2:53Speaker 3: It was such a sponsored event for her that we
- 2:56Speaker 3: were all gagging. We were all literally putting her finger
- 2:59Speaker 3: down our wrote wanting to vomit.
- 3:01Speaker 4: And then after it was over and the pundits were
- 3:04Speaker 4: all talking about it and they're basically ripping on her
- 3:06Speaker 4: for not having any policies the people. Did you see
- 3:10Speaker 4: MSNBC's Stephanie.
- 3:12Speaker 3: Rohor Oh yeah, rule Yeah.
- 3:13Speaker 4: She's like, Kamala is not running for perfect, She's running
- 3:17Speaker 4: against Trump. So you have two choices. There are some
- 3:20Speaker 4: things you might not know the answer to, but because
- 3:23Speaker 4: of twenty sixteen, we know exactly what Trump will do
- 3:26Speaker 4: and what a threat he is.
- 3:27Speaker 3: Yeah, Stephanie, He's going to save our country is what
- 3:30Speaker 3: he's gonna do.
- 3:31Speaker 1: Crazy.
- 3:31Speaker 3: But here's another thing. She had these zoom in callers, celebrities,
- 3:36Speaker 3: Chris Rock, Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep. They were about a phony.
- 3:42Speaker 3: I mean, I'm so so turned off by these celebrities
- 3:45Speaker 3: and they're like, you know, Julia Roberts came on there
- 3:48Speaker 3: like hello, Madam Vice President, and Oprah's like, well hello Julia,
- 3:53Speaker 3: she goes, well, I just saw you the other day.
- 3:55Speaker 3: That's the thing they all see. They all run in
- 3:57Speaker 3: the same circle, right, They all live in this big
- 4:00Speaker 3: None of the policies, if Kamala has any will affect
- 4:03Speaker 3: them because gout houses everywhere. They got billions and millions
- 4:06Speaker 3: and billions of dollars. You have Meryl Streep that was.
- 4:09Speaker 4: Like, oh gosh, she goes Ama Hello President Harris.
- 4:12Speaker 3: Oops. Yeah, oh, I didn't realize for somebody that's such
- 4:16Speaker 3: a great actress, that was pretty pathetic. I could have
- 4:18Speaker 3: actually done that. I mean, it was clearly planned and
- 4:21Speaker 3: it was Ben Stiller, all of these people, and I
- 4:24Speaker 3: look at them differently.
- 4:25Speaker 4: You know what, who cares? Nobody cares what any celebrity
- 4:30Speaker 4: thinks about anything anymore. Like they've lost all the mojo
- 4:34Speaker 4: they used to credibility as nobody cares. Nobody cares what
- 4:38Speaker 4: they do.
- 4:39Speaker 3: They care because they don't go support supporties anymore. They've
- 4:43Speaker 3: seen even Taylor Swift saw drop when she, you know,
- 4:46Speaker 3: said that she was for Kamala and Tim Walls. So
- 4:49Speaker 3: it's so funny because they themselves are so narcissistic that
- 4:52Speaker 3: they think that we care like this is gonna move mountains.
- 4:54Speaker 3: Even Oprah, this is gonna be what takes her over
- 4:57Speaker 3: the edge. What it does is it makes it okay,
- 4:59Speaker 3: check you off the list. You I will not go
- 5:02Speaker 3: see your movie.
- 5:03Speaker 4: You know.
- 5:04Speaker 1: I think I think Oprah actually had a lot more power.
- 5:06Speaker 1: I think she had back there or a lot more
- 5:09Speaker 1: sway with the American people when people weren't sure whether
- 5:12Speaker 1: she was a Democrat or a publican. But since she
- 5:16Speaker 1: endorsed Barack Obama, I really don't think she's got as
- 5:20Speaker 1: much power, especially with suburban women, the core of her
- 5:25Speaker 1: audience as.
- 5:26Speaker 3: She used to well, not only does she not have
- 5:28Speaker 3: that with the suburban women, especially the white women, because
- 5:32Speaker 3: she has clearly caused a division. It started. I don't
- 5:35Speaker 3: know if y'all remember this, but it started with her
- 5:37Speaker 3: African American picnics that we saw and I thought at
- 5:40Speaker 3: the time, she was doing the Oprah magazine and I thought, well,
- 5:42Speaker 3: that's cool, that's her culture and she's so blacks. Only
- 5:46Speaker 3: all these celebrities per bubble, and then it became more
- 5:51Speaker 3: that's what she would like. She would put all of
- 5:53Speaker 3: her efforts behind, whether it was Black entertainment, you know,
- 5:56Speaker 3: b E T and she did her we TV and
- 5:59Speaker 3: it was instead of like honing in on everybody, it
- 6:02Speaker 3: was all about that. And I thought, this is what
- 6:04Speaker 3: happens when you have a present like Barack Obama that
- 6:07Speaker 3: sows those seeds of division. It gets in the minds
- 6:10Speaker 3: and hearts of even those that know better.
