Star duo say Oprah has the will to Win
HOLLYWOOD greats Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep have backed a possible run for the White House by Oprah Winfrey.
The Oscar-winning actors, who appear in new film The Post, have both said they would support the talk-show host.
Streep said Winfrey, 63, was “raising the bar for whomever decides to run because they’d better burn the barn in the same way”. She added: “She’s run a major corporation that didn’t go bankrupt three or four or however many times.
“Intellectually she’s qualified. Her energy, her stamina, her passion. She’s more than qualified.”
Hanks added: “The first woman chief executive of the United States would need to have Oprah Winfrey’s qualities.”
