Being on TV was “like a poll, that means people like you,” the former Celebrity Apprentice president and star said of Oz, a heart surgeon who became a daily presenter. Many of the hardline right-wing Trump in the Republican Party, however, question whether Oz is a true conservative. In a statement before a rally in Selma, North Carolina on Saturday night, Trump said: “This has to do with winning the election to stop the radical left-wing maniacs from destroying our country. “The great commonwealth of Pennsylvania has a tremendous opportunity to save America by electing the brilliant and well-known Dr. Mehmet Oz to the United States Senate.” At his rally, Trump called Oz a “great guy, a good man.” He studied at Harvard, had a great, great career, and they liked it for a long time. It’s like a poll. “You know, when you’ve been on TV for 18 years, it’s like a poll, it means you like people.” Trump had previously backed Sean Parnell, who resigned after being accused by his wife of abusive behavior, which he denied. David McCormick, a hedge fund executive, also called for Trump’s support. The Senate is divided 50-50, controlled by the vote of Vice President Kamala Harris. The audit will be jeopardized in November. Republicans have suggested they could use the Senate to deny Joe Biden another choice for the Supreme Court. The Democratic Senate Committee tried to present Trump’s ratification of Oz as divisive. “The Pennsylvania Republican Senate by-election was already bad, costly and brutal,” said Patrick Bergwinkle, a spokesman. “Now Trump’s support will intensify this internal party controversy, just as it did in the Republican primary across the country – leaving their final candidate seriously injured and not following the voters who decide the general election. elections”. Oz has been accused of not getting along well with Pennsylvania voters, largely because he entered the race after living for two decades in New Jersey. His entry into politics also brought renewed attention to his television career, which began on Oprah Winfrey’s show. In 2014, Oz told senators that some of the products he promoted, including a “miracle” green coffee bean extract, had no “scientific focus.” The following year, a group of distinguished physicians accused Oz of showing “extreme lack of integrity” and promoting “cook treatments.” From a political point of view, prominent pro-Trump figures have said that Oz is not a conservative. Former White House Chief of Staff Steve Bannon said: “How does Dr Oz, perhaps the most anti-dude guy, do that Fox constantly pimps this guy and Newsmax pimps him, and that’s what Dr . Oz, from New Jersey, [Turkish president Recep Tayyip] “How does Erdogan’s friend, who is floating from Jersey, become a factor in a Senate race in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania?” In his support, Trump said Oz was particularly popular with women because of his work on television during the day and could do well in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, democratically inclined cities. The former president also referred to his own controversial appearance on the Oz campaign show in the 2016 campaign, when Trump showed some results of exercise. Trump said: “He even said that I was in excellent health, which made me like him even more (although he also said that I should lose a few pounds!)”. Trump, who appointed Oz to the White House, also described him as anti-abortionist, “very strong on crime, borders, electoral fraud, our large army and our veterinarians, tax cuts.” and gun rights. “President Trump wisely approved of me because I’m a conservative who would oppose Joe Biden and he woke up,” Oz said. The poll shows that Oz and McCormick are equally compatible. The winner is likely to face Democrat John Feterman, the current vice president, in the November election. Speaking to Politico, “a person close to Trump… noted a phrase that Trump often repeated when talking about Oz: ‘He has been appearing on television in people’s bedrooms and living rooms for years.’
