Oprah Winfrey leads debate on Trump for 1st 60 Minutes segment

Media mogul Oprah Winfrey's first segment as a "60 Minutes" correspondent saw a heated debate on US President Donald Trump.

The 63-year-old host, along with CBS News' Frank Luntz, talked to 14 Americans in Michigan about what they feel about the POTUS and the results turned out to be mixed, reported Variety.

One of the panelists named Tom said that Trump is a good leader, although he does not "like his Twitter attacks", calling them "inappropriate".

"But, at the same time, his actions speak louder than words. And I love what he's doing to this country," he added.

On the other hand, a woman named Jennifer called him a "horrible president" and argued that he has divided America even more today.
 

Winfrey also raised the investigation into Russian collusion in the election. Another member, Paul, said he is tired of hearing about the issue, while another named Tim argued that it was a "foreign attack on our country."

Trump's comments on tragic events in Charlottesville rally, ban on transgender individuals serving in the military and discrimination towards LGBTQ and African-American were also among issues that were discussed in "60 Minutes" premiere.
