“I’m a gun owner; Tim Walz is a gun owner,” Harris said.

“I did not know that,” Winfrey replied.

“If somebody breaks into my house, they’re getting shot,” Harris added. “Probably should not have said that. But my staff will deal with that later.”

The article has a video clip. I love the bullshit "probably..." It's a 100% certainty she spoke with her staff and workshopped the phrasing and presentation of gun stuff. Plus I bet she practiced her lines. No American politician is going to wing it when talking about guns.

This oprah thing was so full of pandering to republicans. Is oprah republican now or something?

I assume she considers herself "pragmatic" so that would make her a pragmatic democrat which is effectively always means republican.

She is also a massively wealthy capital owner. Even if she isn't a registered republican she wants the status quo to protect her own interests.

Oprah gave several right wing grifters their big breaks, like Doctor Oz and Rhonda Byrne (the author of The Secret)
