Winfrey was slammed for the tweet throughout her mentions.
This is the second time Ive had tweet troubles, she said on Sunday.

You dont have to tell me again.
I couldnt breathe after the election, she said.

I was expecting tension, awkwardness, and strain.
And President Obama was being so gracious, and I heard Donald Trump say, Hes a good man.
I heard Donald Trump say, Im going to be seeking his counsel.
I literally went [deep breath], I can breathe now, Winfrey said.
