Wait… WHAT?!??! …Orrin Hatch Wants To HELP Oprah With Presidential Campaign

Senator Orrin Hatch is all aboard the Oprah bandwagon.

This is so confusing to me. He starts pretty coy… but it escalates into WTF-ery zone.

“I’d like to sit down and help her if I could.”

“If she handled it right, she’d have a serious chance.”

WHAAAAAAAAA?
According to TMZ:

Senator Orrin Hatch gave us a big surprise Monday … he said he’d like to sit down with Oprah and help her if she decides to run for President in 2020.

We got the Utah Senator — who’s retiring this year — at Reagan National Airport in D.C., and he seemed gleeful about the Presidential buzz following Oprah’s Golden Globes speech.

Mind you … Hatch is the longest-serving Republican in the Senate, who has been super conservative over the years.

Hatch goes as far as to say she’d be a serious candidate if she handles things properly. It’s interesting … he was more overtly supportive of Oprah running than Elizabeth Warren, who deflected the question.

You can watch the video of Warren here…. It’s obvious she’s none too pleased.

And why would she be? She obviously wants to run.. and an Oprah candidacy might kill her chances!

I mean… Oprah is an ACTUAL minority woman… and Warren just pretends to be! Democrat points for Oprah, for suuuure.
