Oprah Winfrey‘s empowering AF speech at the Golden Globes reached those in the White House.
No, sadly, the media mogul’s words didn’t resonate with Donald Trump. However, Winfrey’s Cecil B. DeMille Award acceptance speech DID find a champion in Ivanka Trump.

Late on Monday, the First Daughter and POTUS adviser took to Twitter and wrote:
Just saw @Oprah‘s empowering & inspiring speech at last night├óΓé¼Γäós #GoldenGlobes. Let├óΓé¼Γäós all come together, women & men, & say #TIMESUP! #United https://t.co/vpxUBJnCl7

As Miz Trump has been widely criticized for being a complicit member of Trump’s seemingly corrupt administration, it wasn’t surprising to see that MANY dragged the businesswoman for jumping on the Oprah bandwagon. In fact, several of her famous peers brought up her own father’s sexual misconduct scandal.
There’s no denying that this praise was clueless and tone deaf on Ivanka’s part. Smh.
Take a look at the best reactions to the post (below).
Great! You can make a lofty donation to the Time’s Up Legal Defense Fund that is available to support your father’s accusers.https://t.co/A8HCVa715v

You don’t get to be a part of this.

This is the most hypocritical, clueless statement in her regrettable time in the WH. Your father has a trail of victims and supported Roy Moore, Ivanka. YOU are indeed part of the problem Ivanka. #complicit

Honestly Ivanka, it took a staggering level of heinous idiocy for you to post this tweet.

If that inspired you then you should also check out what your dad said on a bus in 2005.

You making this statement is kind of like when Melania said she was going to make it her mission to fight cyber bullying.

Snap! Snap! Ironically, Deputy Press Secretary Hogan Gidley has since revealed that the White House would welcome Oprah as a contender in the 2020 election. He told reporters on Air Force One:
“We welcome the challenge, whether it be Oprah Winfrey or anybody else”.
Perhaps Donnie’s daughter is planning to jump ship for #TeamWinfrey?? We can only hope…
