TRUMP VS. OPRAH: A highly anticipated showdown between President Trump and Oprah Winfrey will take place -- on the gubernatorial campaign trail in Georgia ... Winfrey -- who is a rumored potential 2020 presidential candidate, despite her denials -- joined Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams in Marietta, Ga., on Thursday and urged voters to make history next Tuesday. Abrams is attempting to become the first black female governor in U.S. history, and is in a close race with Republican Brian Kemp. Winfrey praised Abrams as a "changemaker" and drew cheers when she said she's a registered independent who was not in Georgia at anyone's request. She knocked on doors with Abrams, to the delight of some starstruck residents.
Winfrey's visit came the day before former President Barack Obama's scheduled rally for Abrams on Friday. Vice President Mike Pence made three campaign stops for Kemp on Thursday. President Trump, who has endorsed Kemp, will look to give him a boost in a rally in Macon, Ga., on Sunday.
