President Trump said Tuesday that he’d beat Oprah Winfrey if she ran for president, but he doubts she will run.

“Yeah, I’ll beat Oprah. Oprah will be lots of fun,” he told reporters during a meeting with lawmakers at the White House. “I don’t think she’s going to run.”

He reminded reporters, “I did one of her last shows. … I like Oprah.”

Some liberals have been calling on Ms. Winfrey to run after she gave a spirited speech Sunday night at the Golden Globes Awards ceremony.

She hasn’t ruled out a bid, but suggested it’s unlikely.
