here's what gayle king her self said on "cbs this morning." >> is she considering it? >> no, i absolutely don't think that her position has changed. i don't. you know, i was up talking to her very late last night. i do think this, though, guys, i do think she's intrigued by the idea, i do think that. i also know that after years of watching "the oprah show" you always have a right to change your mind. i don't think at this point she is actually considering it, but listen, there are people who said they want to be her campaign manager, who want to quit their jobs and campaign for her. she loves this country and would like to be of service in some way but i don't think that she is actively -- >> for the record that is a -- >> i don't think she's actively considering it at this time. >> almost a contradiction here, gayle king saying oprah is not considering it but intrigued by the idea. i think we all know what king is doing here, we've seen this with hillary clinton and other past candidates, people want to be coy, play it cool, they want to be urged to run, they don't w

her best friend, gayle king, said today oprah is intrigued by that notion. are you intrigued by that notion? >> certainly i don't think that issue is going to come up in the white house. again, i have my other favorite candidates. there's a lot of candidates out there, and again, i am willing to look at all the different candidates that can provide something to the table and make sure that in 2020 the democrats win the presidency back. >> i will try that, because we have one minute left. i will try it one more time. what do you think about oprah for president and do you see a democrat that could beat her right now? >> again, there's a lot of candidates out there. you got the -- without naming any of the names, yes, we have a lot of democrats out there. >> no, go ahead and name names. >> i will leave it to another time, but, again, there's so many democrats out there that have run before and that i think will have a good shot in the 2020 primary. again, we will see who announces at a later time. again, yes, oprah, yes, it's somebody we could consider, and i a

where life meets legal. >>> gayle king, you, of course, know her, she's oprah's best friend. she's fueling speculation that oprah winfrey is considering a run for president in 2020. king addressed it this morning. listen to this. >> i do think, guys, i think she's intrigued by the idea. i do think that. i also know after years of watching the "oprah show" you have the right to change your mind, and i don't think at this point she's considering it, and there are people that said they want to be their campaign manager and quit their jobs and campaign for her, and she loves this country and would like to be of service in some way but i don't think she's actively considering it. >> let's bring in cnn chief political correspondent, dana bash. she's intrigued by the idea, not actively considering it. what does that mean? >> she's leaving the door open. can we take a step back? could you imagine if chris had to interview this morning if your best friend is running for president. the whole thing is so -- >> weird. >> and fantastic. >> here's what we know. she's leaving the door open.

all right, bacari, gayle king is not slamming the door there? >> she's not. but i do -- i don't know the last time there was a more widely admired speech that was so fundamentally misunderstood. i don't think that was a campaign speech for oprah winfrey. in fact, i think oprah winfrey was imploring the rest of us to become more active, particularly women in the democratic process. so i think that if oprah decides to run, she should run, i want everyone on the democratic side to run, because for a long period of time we've been freezing out certain individuals and i want to bring as many people into the process as possible and just have a battle of ideas, one of which oprah can win, she just has to commit herself to doing it. >> do you think she feels like her speech may have been misunderstood? >> i think that there is a lot of us who believe that her speech was misunderstood including herself. i don't think she was using that as a launching pad to her candidacy to the white house. i think it was an amazing speech that i showed my daughter so she could hear t

but her best friend gayle king says oprah is actually intrigued by the idea. her word. we'll discuss her chances with the iowa political director that actually helped president obama win the state in 2008. of fun. i know her very well. i did one of her last shows. she had donald trump before politics, her last week, and she had donald trump and my family. it was really nice. i like oprah. i don't think she's going to run. >> thanks, guys. >> i don't think she's going to run. >> thanks, guys. >> i know her very well. >> he also said that he thinks he could beat her. president trump weighing in on a potential challenge from oprah winfrey in 2020, and winfrey's best friend gayle king fuelled the speculation even further today. >> is she considering it? >> no, i absolutely don't think that her position has changed, i don't. you know, i was up talking to her very late last night. i do think this, though, guys, i think she's intrigued by the idea. i do think that. i also know that after years of watching the oprah show, you always have the right to change your mind. i don't t

you layer on top of that, these friends who are urging her to run and it makes me wonder what gayle king is going to say. gayle her best friend a host on cbs, she was not on the air this morning but she will be on the air tomorrow morning. she will be asked about this. the last time gayle and oprah talked about this on tv oprah said, quote, there will be no running for office of any kind for me. i think we've all seen the games that will normal politicians play, denying and running until they decide to run. oprah winfrey not a politician, might be looking at this differently, but i think we have to view this possibility, only a possibility, in the context of the movement of women trying to run for office in 2018. that last year started with the women's march, now there's a record number of women, mostly democrats, running for office as a response to president trump, and you'll wonder if oprah winfrey sees herself as a part of that, possibly as a part of that movement to bring more women into office across the country. >> i wonder, can i ask you, because i think of donald trump trying to

i do think that what she said to her bff gayle king this morning should be taken seriously, though. >> yeah. >> that she's probably too smart to maybe mess with her brand, to be in politics, but you never know. if you have someone like meryl streep and her close friend saying you've got to do this, oprah, stranger things have happened. >> here's my question to you, robin. >> yeah. >> we all have love for oprah winfrey. >> yes. undoubtedly. >> the question is do you have love for oprah running for president. >> listen, as much as everyone in their mind would love to think that oprah can be president, oprah cannot be president. here's why. we don't deserve oprah as president. it puts too much pressure on us. and we all have to do better. we have to live our best lives. >> what's wrong with that? >> we have to believe people and listen to when they show us who they are, and i do not think america is red. people know that oprah is too smart to be president and it's the same reason when michelle obama gets calls to run, she's, like, no thanks. i've been in that white house and i've been in

. >> her best friend is gayle king on cbs this morning. gail has not commented. i've been trying to get ahold of her. notice this, last winter maybe last spring gayle and oprah went vacationing in the south pacific with barack and michele obama. where would she get political advice it could come from the former president. >> thank you for this reporting. again, the headline from brian's reporting, oprah winfrey actively considering a possible white house run. we will have much more on that in just a few moments including what it means. let's focus on the current white house and its current occupant who sent as many people as he could out this weekend to say how smart he is. abby philip at the white house for a little more on that. abby? >> good morning, john and poppy. for the last 48 hours for this white house it's been really extraordinary with the president of the united states coming out and defending his own sanity using social media to bat down some of the chatter that'ses been raised by the new explosive tell-all book and in addition to the president himse

stedman and gayle king said the speech gave her goosebumps. i said how serious is oprah? there is no official word from her camp about this. when you think about the democratic lineup, when you go through the list and you name joe biden and other potential candidates, you pretty quickly run out of star power. and what she has more than anyone else in the world is star power. if you want to fight fire with fire, president trump is a star, a reality tv star. oprah winfrey has been on television in some ways even longer than he has. it might make sense to democratic insiders. if anything, it gave people even more reason to dream it up. >> oh, my gosh. brian, thank you very much for recapping all of that. >> what a night that was. we'll be talking about it throughout the morning. a lot happened more than just handing out awards at the golden globes. >>> there is a new report this morning that claims president trump's official schedule is getting shorter. how so and what does it mean abouted prioritizat the priorit time? what is the president doing what he's not in the oval of

her best friend gayle king said nothing has changed since oprah said last year she has no plans to run, but -- >> i was talking to her very late last night. i do think this. i do think she is intrigued by the idea. i do think that. i also know after years of watching the oprah show you always have the right to change your mind. i don't think at this point she is actually considering it. >> we will hear from the president in a minute. the party is not sure what to think. here's what two of the rivals had to say about her big moment. >> i think everybody knows that oprah is an extremely articulate and intelligent person, but it's sill tow speculate on an election that takes place in three years. >> whatever she wants to do she should do. >>> are we have about 30 seconds before we hear from the president of the us. is this a sign of weaknesses that they don't have a front-runner and trump is whoing up every rule? >> the mid-term season is always for all comers. the party's bench is entirely wiped out essentially. why not have this conversation. things will get more real after the mid-term

her best friend, of course, gayle king, says she is intrigued. she is also very close to the filmmaker, ava duvernay, who is part of our new cnn series, "american woman." it is brooke baldwin's series. she sat down with duvernay to talk about women who have shattered ceilings across their respective industries. here's this. >> who's helping you? do you have a woman like holding your hand at all? >> no. through my films is how i met and connected with other women. on the film festival circuit, in the independent film scene. i started to see that i was part of a small tribe of women filmmakers, even smaller tribe of black women filmmakers. and i started to feel very empowered. it's not even 10% of directors in hollywood are women. not even 10% are women of color. that's 90% of everything you watch on television and film being controlled, those images, those ideas, those scripts, the way the cameras move, the way that women dress, everything controlled by men. >> how do young, black girls grow up in a house like this and think, i can and i will? >>

that is so different than what we heard from steadman and heard from her besty gayle king. >> look, anything can happen, we're such a long ways away, but, i mean, there has been interest in her because she's a -- it signalled to us the democratic party doesn't have a deep bench out there. and so that's why there has been such a -- and she is a superstar billionaire, billionairess. so, look, i think the reality sits into her, like, what does it mean to run for president and there is the glamour part of it and then there is the really awful part of it too. i don't know if she really wants it. she has a nice life right now. >> i know. what do you think, scott? >> we have a great bench. there are a bunch of senators and members and governors alike who are thinking about it. there is a host of new folks, whether it is oprah, the rock, mark cuban, whether it is kanye. sort of fun to think about. oprah, i think -- >> kimye. >> kimye. >> oprah would inject a dose of something new that i think would excite the electorate. >> you know it deepens the bench, a bruising primary battle. we'll see. thank y

then her dear friend, gayle king, did very little to tamper the speculation down. >> is she considering it? >> no, i absolutely don't think that her position has changed. i don't. i was up talking to her very late last night. i do think this, though, guys. i think she's intrigued by the idea. i do think that. i also know that after years of watching the oprah show, you also have the right to change your mind. i don't think at this point she is actually considering it, but listen, there are people who have said they want to be her campaign manager, who want to quit their jobs and campaign for her. she loves this country, and would like to be of service in some way. but i don't think that she's actively considering it. >> for the record, that's a significant change -- >> i don't think she's actively considering it at this time. >> when you put that together, van, what do you get? >> well, i think you get an accurate picture. i think she doesn't want to do it, but i think she's intrigued. honestly, the country does need oprah winfrey right now in some way. this -- this is not a normal peri

even gayle king and her longtime partner have said she would do it. cheryl: interviewed after the show. >> absolutely. a lot of people have said this sounded like she was actually campaigning in that wouldn't surprise me. >> debra messing spoke out on the red carpet as well. >> i was so shocked to hear they don't believe in paying their female cohost the same as their male cohost. i miss kat sadler, so we stand with her. >> debra messing outspoken. an awkward moment for he and other celebrities continue to do the same, calling them out for the equal pay issue that kat sadler recently brought up. just listen to all the deeds. >> thank you for listening to me and valuing my end put to allow our films to find its audience. cheryl: to profanity laced. >> someone was clearly trigger-happy. there was one word that she used, so it's kind of a funny moment. >> in the final 10 seconds here, who won what and how does that set us up for the oscars? >> a lot of the winners were quite expected and i think we are going to see a continuation on stage accepting award

gayle king, by the way, oprah winfrey's best friend has already said she's not running for president. but that tweet, kelsey by nbc has now been deleted. nbc responding with another tweet reading quote yesterday a tweet about the globes and oprah winfrey sent by a third party for nbc realtime during the broadcast, it's in reference to a joke made during the monologue, not meant to be a political statement. kelsey, come in here. what was your reaction to all of that? >> well, it's nice for nbc to actually be transparent about its political bias. particularly in this time when the media is being questioned, the credibility is being questioned. i think this was an unfortunate mistake on their behalf. they're trying to blame this on some third party. but let's be honest on a night as big as the golden globes. you better bet that there are nbc executives signing off on any tweet that's going out. but to the question about oprah, we all know and love oprah as an entrepreneur, as a businesswoman. but we don't necessarily all know or love her based on her politics. we don't quite know what he

gayle king has said she's not going to do it. not going to 100% rule it out but not really considering it. i wouldn't be surprised if she ran. greg has been talking about it forever, so who knows? interesting, the president's remarks. he said if she ran, he could beat her fact that he liked her, and he was on one of her last shows. big ratings grabber. >> dana: they are telling me i have a minute left. usually the electorate wants the polar opposite. >> jesse: the polar opposite of trump would be a short, thin, hispanic female from rural america. oprah gave a speech and now we are supposed to give her the codes to the nuclear football? i don't know about that. i don't think ice is fierce oprah. trump tapped into something real. i think oprah tapped into some hollywood vibes. i don't want another campaign run on sexism. and it's going to be on sexism and racism because that's what the media is going to wanted to be about. the difference between the trump as a reality star and oprah as reality stare. oprah just gave away free stuff

nonetheless, her best friend, gayle king over at cbs says oprah is not considering a 2020 bid but is intrigued by the idea. brian: can dr. phil be reached for comment. he also knows oprah and is a friend of ours. that could be our source. ainsley: maybe dr. oz. brian: will she run with somebody else on television? steve: somebody suggested the rock. a run with tom hanks or harrison ford. brian: mayoral streeps wants the rock and harrison ford on her cabinet. so she thinks we are casting a movie. steve: that's one of the arguments where people say oprah should not run because we have seen what it's like when a celebrity runs for president. do we want to do that again? that's what people on the left are saying. ainsley: let's hand it over to jillian who has headlines. brian: who is a celebrity of her own. jillian: very much. so you guys are forgetting about george clooney. i feel that's a name that could be thrown in there potentially. brian: would he jump into the fray? jillian: i don't know. we will see for sure. if he does we will let you know. ainsley: ben affleck. jillian: we do h

this is dylan farrow speaking with host gayle king of "cbs this morning." >> someone said this to me, she was to bring woody allen down, she is caught up in the #metoo movement. she is tried to bring him down. >> why shouldn't i want to bring him down? why shouldn't i be angry? what shouldn't i be hurt? why shouldn't i feel some sort -- outrage that after all of these years being ignored and disbelieved and tossed aside? amy: dylan farrow's appearance on cbs came a week after actor mira sorvino publicly apologized to dylan farrow in an open letter, saying that she will never work with woody allen again and regrets her past roles. she joins a growing list of actors and actresses who have appeared in woody allen's films who are now publicly supporting farrow, including greta gerwig, rebecca hall, and timothee chalamet. in a statement, woody allen denied the allegations, writing -- "even though the farrow family is cynically using the opportunity afforded by the time's up movement to repeat this discredited allegation, that doesn't make it any more true today than it was in the past. i n

and this is what she told her friend gayle king in october. >> 2020, i'm wondering if you've narrowed down your short list of v.p. candidates. >> she's lost her mind now. no, i haven't. >> no, no. >> it took me a minute to follow. >> 2020, i was thinking of the show. people ask it all the time. >> even i am now starting to think the rules changed about running for president. >> there will be no running for office of any kind for me. >> i like she was thinking of the show "20/20." she can come tell us any 250i78. the white house is weighing in on this. the deputy press secretary saying, quote, we welcome the challenge, whether it be oprah winfrey or anybody else. >>> there is still much more ahead on "world news tonight" this monday. the fire at trump tower. dozens of firefighters on the scene. we'll have the latest. >>> also, the urgent manhunt right now for a suspect. the deputy killed responding to a 911 call. images from that scene tonight. >>> and you met him here, nearly a decade ago. he was our "person of the week" back then. and he had one dream, he told you all about it at hom

today, her best friend gayle king says she doesn't think oprah's position has changed. but -- >> i do think she's intrigued by the idea. i do think that. i also know, after years of watching the oprah show, you always have a right to change your mind. i don't think at this point she is actually considering it. >> reporter: the oprah show, something president trump knows a lot about. oprah once asking if he would run for president. >> i just don't think i really have the inclination to do it. i love what i'm doing, i really like it. >> also doesn't pay as well. >> no, it doesn't. >> reporter: his white house aides aren't laughing. they're already lobbing political hits. >> what advise would you give a political outsider, who seems intrigued about the idea of running? >> i'm not going to focus on anyone's campaign other than president trump's re-election. >> reporter: is she qualified? >> look, i disagree very much on her policies. is she a successful individual? absolutely. but in terms of where she stands on a number of positions, i would find a lot of problems with tha
