Since his win in a tough Republican primary, Dr Oz’s (R) playbook to win Pennsylvania’s US Senate seat has included tying John Fetterman (D) to “socialist” politicians (Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, et al.), eating the Fluffyan delicacy known as the cheesesteak (particularly the one from Pat’s King of Steaks), and various other zingers coming from 2771 Philmont Avenue.

Now, Dr Mehmet Oz felt the urgent need to corral the base in place, so his latest fundraising message sent through email and SMS included a proclamation that the “MAGA MOVEMENT IS DYING”, along with an image of Donald Trump with the caption “KEEP THE MAGA MOVEMENT ALIVE”. An act of desperation? Internal polling showing the doctor far behind? You decide.

Liberals are winning the fundraising race, and the America First ProTrump movement feels defeated. If just 7 MAGA supporters step up right here, right now, we will be able to turn things around. Our nation cannot afford for the MAGA movement to die. Friend, be a fighter for TRUMP.

But it won’t be a surprise if Dr Oz is fighting as if he is far behind in the polls. After all many Twitter commentators have been critical of Dr Oz, and not just because of his New Jersey mansion.

And as of late, John Fetterman has challenged Dr Oz’s image of being a gun-loving Pennsylvanian, given that Oz isn’t licensed to hunt, at least not in the state of Florida, where he owns property.

But if his dream for the Senate seat ends up like the numerous broken dreams down in Hollywood, at least he will be greeted with a huge New Jersey homecoming. Can’t say Dr Oz’s mansion on top of the Palisades isn’t prime real estate property.
