Actress and TV talk show host Oprah Winfrey seen here posing with the Cecil B De Mille Award during the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday delivered a rousing speech that has Democrats talking about her running for president in 2020
"I think Oprah Winfrey would make an absolutely brilliant president", he said.
When Mr Trump discussed a White House run with talk show host Larry King in 1999, he picked Winfrey as his potential running mate.
POTUS Trump logged 66% of Republican votes but also 12% of Democrats' and 38% of those who say they are not affiliated with either party.
Oprah addressed the Weinstein sex scandal on her Facebook account late previous year, writing: "I've been processing the accounts of Harvey Weinstein's disgusting behavior and haven't been able to find the words to articulate the magnitude of the situation".
He added: "I did one of her last shows".
In her speech, Winfrey told the story of Abbeville, Ala. -native Recy Taylor, a black civil rights activist who died late last month just days before her 98th birthday. "I'd much rather go for someone like Oprah Winfrey than a career politician".
Say what you will about Donald Trump, but at least voters elected him for his positions, not his cuddly likability.

Wells Fargo & Co (WFC) Shares Sold by QV Investors Inc

In his opening monologue Meyers revealed he had once made a joke that Trump could never be US President, which led to The Donald deciding to run in the election.
"The question isn't whether she would run because she probably will, or if she could win because she would probably win", he said. "Is she a successful individual?" She also added: "She loves this country and would like to be in service in some way, but I don't think she is actively considering it".
"I like Oprah but I don't think she's going to run".
Still, if it's possible for a former reality TV star with zero political experience to become president of the United States, surely it's possible for Oprah to change her mind.
But when Stedman Graham, her longtime partner, was asked about the chances of Winfrey running in 2020 following the Golden Globes awards night, he told the Los Angeles Times that it is up to the people. "We all know she is a very good talker", King said.
Her speech set the internet ablaze with hopes and dreams that she would run for president in 2020.
"It was the right person giving the right speech at the right time", King said. "I do think this, though".
