Trump Busted In Stupid Lies About Oprah Winfrey

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale reports:

Trump wrote, “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.” Facts First: Trump’s claim is false. He did not appear on the last episode in 2011, nor even in the star-studded final week of the show. Rather, Trump appeared on the show about three-and-a-half months before it ended.

At a campaign rally in North Carolina earlier on Saturday, Trump said: “And didn’t Oprah ask her about her time at McDonald’s? And she just sort of didn’t want to answer that one. ‘Let me not talk about that.'” Facts First: Trump’s claim that Harris dodged a question from Winfrey about working at McDonald’s is false. In reality, Winfrey never even asked Harris about working at McDonald’s.
