It takes a lot to set Brian Stelter off. We kid, of course. But this is pretty pathetic, even for him.
Over the weekend, Stelter expressed grave concern over Trump’s mental fitness:
Maybe President Trump is cool, calm and collected in person. But on Twitter, he sounds deeply troubled right now. He sounds unhinged. This is why Q's about his fitness for office are so urgent… https://t.co/Kj8xG1PZAp

Yeah, but all bets are off when Oprah comes into the picture:
Just watched a very insecure Oprah Winfrey, who at one point I knew very well, interview a panel of people on 60 Minutes. The questions were biased and slanted, the facts incorrect. Hope Oprah runs so she can be exposed and defeated just like all of the others!

Basically:
Re: Trump's "hope Oprah runs" tweet, here's what I reported a few days ago: While Oprah says she is "not running" right now, she has not ruled it out, according to three confidants https://t.co/QU6s7kRMvE

Trump says Oprah's Q's were biased and slanted. Judge for yourself, here's the @60Minutes transcript https://t.co/y0Cs149TOo

In the past Trump has called Oprah a friend and said "I love Oprah." Now he's calling her "very insecure." It just so happens that Trump's perceived insecurities were a major topic of cable news coverage on Sunday… https://t.co/lT8bwLubaq

Well, to be fair, they were a major topic of cable news coverage because of people like Brian Stelter. So.
Most tweets Trump sends out I think it’s because he’s an insane lunatic. And others I think it’s because he knows CNN’s crack media team of trainspotting clickbait heroin addicts can’t resist. The Oprah tweet is pure media heroin

Next week on reliable sources – “Trump tweeting about Oprah is unhinged. He seems unwell. By the way I’m not saying he’s mentally ill LEAVE OPRAH ALONE!” Stelter leaps up and bites the cover off the overhead boom mic

That’s gonna be some great television.
