Donald Trump says Oprah Winfrey is not the same person he has come to know in previous decades after the iconic talk show host threw a star-studded event with Vice President Kamala Harris last week

Other celebrities like Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lopez participated in the 90-minute event from Michigan, one of the seven battleground states key to winning in November’s election.

Trump participated in a few interviews with Winfrey over the years and noted that in his Truth Social post on Saturday where he went after the talk show host.

‘A long time ago, Oprah Winfrey asked me to do her last Network Television Show. The final week of her show was a big deal, and it was my honor, with my family, to do it,’ he wrote of the registered independent voters.

‘When I watched her interview yesterday with a woman who is destroying, through her complete and total incompetence, America, I couldn’t help but think this isn’t the real Oprah,’ he said, changing his tune with: ‘[T]his isn’t a person that wants millions of people, from prisons and mental institutions, and terrorists, drug dealers, and human traffickers, from all over the World, pouring into our Country.’

Ahead of Thursday’s United for America event, Winfrey said she was hoping to get Americans excited about voting this cycle.

‘When I watched her interview yesterday with a woman who is destroying, through her complete and total incompetence, America, I couldn’t help but think this isn’t the real Oprah,’ Trump wrote on Truth Social

Trump, however, claimed in his Truth Social ramblings that Harris is not ‘mentally fit’ to serve at the helm of the Oval Office.

‘Kamala looked really foolish, couldn’t answer the simplest of questions on Inflation, the Cost of Goods, or our very porous and dangerous Border – No leader there, and Oprah just wanted to crawl under a table!’ Trump continued.

‘Comrade Kamala Harris is mentally unfit to be President. She knows it, and so does everyone else!’

Presidential candidate sees HUGE surge in popularity as election war rages on with just six weeks to go

Donald Trump is still coming to terms with facing a very different race from just two months ago and dealing with the fact that his new opponent is widely more popular than President Joe Biden.

Kamala Harris has seen a double-digit increase in popularity since announcing her bid to take over for Biden in the 2024 presidential race after polls repeatedly showed she was a highly unpopular vice president.

Her favorability surged a whopping 16 points since July, according to a new NBC News poll released on Sunday, which is the largest increase for any politician since George W. Bush’s standing after the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 2001.

Harris also made up seven points in the race since Biden was up against Trump in July.

A new poll shows Kamala Harris making up 7 points against Donald Trump compared to where Joe Biden stood against the former president before dropping out in July

With just six weeks until Election Day, Harris has a 49 percent to 44 percent advantage among registered voters who want to cast their ballot for her over Trump – still within the margin of error for this poll.

Earlier this summer, before Biden dropped out on July 21, Trump was ahead of the president by 2 points in a survey from the same pollster.

Now the former president is behind by 5 points, which is what he was ahead of Biden by in January this year.

While overall Trump is slipping against Harris in the latest NBC new polling, he still holds advantages over her in some key areas – like the economy and inflation.

Two-third of voters say income in their family is falling behind the cost of living.

And voters are still ranking the rising cost of living in the U.S. as their top concern going into the election in November.

Harris saw a double-digit surge in popularity since going from just vice president to the 2024 presidential candidate for Democrats

In April, 23 percent of respondents said that inflation and the economy were their No. 1 issue in the 2024 election. And in the latest poll taken September 13-17, 28 percent feel this way.

Threats to democracy is now the second-ranked issue since Harris became the nominee against Trump with 19 percent saying their top concern is this issue.

Immigration and the situation at the southern border fell from second to third place between April and September with only 14 percent ranking it as the No. 1 concern now compared to 22 percent in the spring.
