Pathetic. Kamala couldn’t even get Oprah to come out for her without paying a million bucks. Even she knew what a disaster Kamala was.

She blew a billion bucks and still couldn’t pull it off. Maybe there’s still a spark of intelligence in human life in the US even though they’re teaching kids that gender is assigned at birth…
I guess people don’t care what billionaires like Oprah think about who’s running for president
After all she can pay her grocery and electric bills.
But wow, a million bucks?? For a celebrity endorsement? That’s just crooked.
Thank god Kamala wasn’t in charge of the US budget… we would’ve gone from too much in debt to defaulting on our debt.

Lol! We were sanctimoniously lectured to, that the Biden/Harris administration was THEE most transparent one in our Nations history. So much for transparency.
By the way, Oprah really looks disheveled and ugly without her studio make-up on. That first video is very telling.

She also paid $10m to Beyonce
5m to Megan thee stallion
1.8m to Eminem.
And all these people claimed that if you don’t vote for Kamala, America is doomed. They believed in the message so much, that they only charged millions of dollars to spread it.
Unbelievable

The campaign paid for the production costs of ‘Unite for America,’ a live-streaming event that took place Sept. 19 outside Detroit, Mich.,” a spokesperson for Harpo shared in a statement. “Oprah Winfrey was at no point during the campaign paid a personal fee, nor did she receive a fee from Harpo.”
