Dr. Oz running for PA Senate seat ... as a Republican

[Route 45]

Her main/only complaint seems to be Oz removed mention of Trump's endorsement from his web site

Based on body of work, I would have placed you in the segment of the INGO population that also wants to distance itself from Trump. Wondering how you, et al, can pretend to see this as a problem unless it is just more provacateuring

Good dog. Roll over.

 

[BugI02]

You gonna pm him and cuss him out for embarrassing you in the thread?

I don't think peeps on the GS scale are embarrassable, anymore

New to this thread, she complains that he has long time been pro-abortion, has long time been pro-transitioning children's gender, that he got Trump's endorsement, then dumped it the second he won the primary, and is already talking about compromise with the Dems/Progs/Socialist/Communists... you know, like the recently passed gun bill.

I listened to it and just heard "mention" of dumping Trump in the context as he's really probably left of Romney.

So I call

No. Her complaints were many. She listed the positions Oz has which oppose conservative values. She expressed disappointment that Trump actually endorsed him. <GASP! She blasphemed dear leader!> She then railed on Oz eliminating Trump from his public face. And then talked about how Oz used Trump to appeal to conservatives to win the primary, and now has moved to the center to appeal to democrats as well. This apparently was in service of the point that Oz was never actually "republican" in the first place, which I would agree with.

Breakup? Cute, you grasp at any way to feel as if anyone wants a relationship with you.

Remember, i didnt pm you yelling and cussing, you did. Cry more.

Did I miss something?

It's sad and pathetic that this is so important to you, but I understand that you might have some feelings to process, so if sharing your trauma on the internet helps you, then you do you.

I apologize for any hurt that I have caused you with my words. I'm kinda old school when it comes to the old "sticks and stones" mindset, but I realize that many here are obviously not cut from the same cloth. I was simply trying to follow INGO rules, as I understand that telling someone that they are a ****ing moron in the open forum is bad form.

Have a nice day.

So let me get this right... you pm me yelling and cussing, and im the one whos butthurt? LOL.

C'mon boys. Take it outside. No need for this thread to result in more people being sent off the playground. But I have a feeling we may be past that point.

That's quite an imagination you have there, little one. How do you "yell" on the interent? [internet]

ALL CAPS!

Sorry to keep you waiting, old boy. I was enjoying craft brew and a whole wheat crust pizza made with Ohio pepperoni

Now then, main complaint as in only new complaint and the presumed reason to even make the video segment. She is rehashing a lot of old complaints about Oz and then adding the latest which is that he is distancing himself from Trump

I can see where rehashing a lot of old complaints would resonate with you, but the only new datum is, in her interpretation, he is 'distancing' himself from Trump

"<GASP! She blasphemed dear leader!>" Again the intimation that anyone who might dare to disagree with you does not have a well thought out position

​

full of yourself (CED)​

thinking that you are very important in a way that annoys other people:

I will re-iterate. I still believe Trump will be 47 and I also believe we need to get him some help in congress. I will acknowledge that Trump's record of character judgement leaves something to be desired, but we won't go into the limited choices for appointments due to the the left and the establishment CoCrublicans making him radioactive. That he chose to endorse Oz may indicate that his polling shows that a Cocrublican like McCormick had a lesser chance of being elected and might result in a Democrat picking up that seat. By going with someone who has high name recognition and appeal across a broad spectrum of the electorate he may be maximizing the chances of a republican taking that seat. The attempt to portray Trump as unsophisticated and mainly interested in those who stroke his ego is as tired as it is disingenuous. the man has accomplished more to make America great again than anybody else on the field

That said, as I said, I will give Oz a chance. I still judge him to be a better possibility to be America First than the former CEO of Bridgewater Associates, the largest hedge fund in America. When I think former hedge fund executive turned politician, Mitt Romney comes first to mind, and that isn't a mistake I'm anxious to see repeated

Like those of us who originally backed Trump early, I'll take my chances (which is easy to do since I can't vote for him but only advocate for him) on the outsider rather than the CoCrublican. I'm not interested in a Club for Growth, open borders tool interested in maintaining the status quo, but you really should get over yourself when it comes to assessing the amount of thought and research others put into their opinions. What does it say about relative acumen when I backed Trump early and you were forced to admit he was the best option in the breech

Uh, I haven't been waiting on you. But okay. Thanks?

Well, this was the first video I've ever seen of hers. So maybe it's rehashing things she has already brought up? But you said,
"Her main/only complaint seems to be Oz removed mention of Trump's endorsement from his web site." I disagreed. So I outlined her complaints. Plural.

"<GASP! She blasphemed dear leader!>" Again the intimation that anyone who might dare to disagree with you does not have a well thought out position

The GASP! comment didn't have anything to do with me thinking you haven't thought out your position. I was mocking you for some of our prior conversations regarding your inability to handle when someone criticizes Trump. You left out the part where she was critical of Trump, which seems apropos. I think Trump stepped on his dick by endorsing Oz. Oz isn't a "Republican".

Another personal attack unsubstantiated by the facts. But whatever.

I will re-iterate. I still believe Trump will be 47 and I also believe we need to get him some help in congress.

I'm not as confident. But polls are showing Biden's approval has not improved despite the professionally produced Jan 6 hearings. So that's encouraging. I'd rather DeSantis, but I'd take Trump.

I will acknowledge that Trump's record of character judgement leaves something to be desired, but we won't go into the limited choices for appointments due to the the left and the establishment CoCrublicans making him radioactive. That he chose to endorse Oz may indicate that his polling shows that a Cocrublican like McCormick had a lesser chance of being elected and might result in a Democrat picking up that seat.

Is that actually any better? Oz is effectively a Democrat.

By going with someone who has high name recognition and appeal across a broad spectrum of the electorate he may be maximizing the chances of a republican taking that seat. The attempt to portray Trump as unsophisticated and mainly interested in those who stroke his ego is as tired as it is disingenuous. the man has accomplished more to make America great again than anybody else on the field

I think you're overthinking it. Yes, Oz is on TV and that would certainly give him name recognition. I don't really think Trump's endorsement is rocket science. I don't think it was anything as simple as stroking Trump's ego either.

That said, as I said, I will give Oz a chance. I still judge him to be a better possibility to be America First than the former CEO of Bridgewater Associates, the largest hedge fund in America. When I think former hedge fund executive turned politician, Mitt Romney comes first to mind, and that isn't a mistake I'm anxious to see repeated

That's not a bad position to have. We'll see what he does. I don't trust the Bridgewater CEO any more than I trust Obamney. But Oz is not exactly an unknown either. He's already said what his position is on a lot of topics. Maybe he doesn't actually believe those things.

Like those of us who originally backed Trump early, I'll take my chances (which is easy to do since I can't vote for him but only advocate for him) on the outsider rather than the CoCrublican. I'm not interested in a Club for Growth, open borders tool interested in maintaining the status quo, but you really should get over yourself when it comes to assessing the amount of thought and research others put into their opinions.

Where did I assess the amount of thought and research you put into your post? You should stop reading between lines that don't exist because you keep guessing wrong. Like I said, what I thought of your post was that I disagree with you. There isn't any hidden meaning in that. I think she said a lot more about Oz and Trump than merely what you said was her only complaint. I suspect that may be because she expressed some criticism of Trump, which you don't seem to like. Regardless, your opinion was what it was. I had a different one. So I thought you were wrong. Now isn't that not a lot simpler than imagining so much more?

I just deleted several threads and invite db to consider time outs for both of the children acting out in open forum.
This is the last time we see any of this idiocy OK.
Don’t test us. I am not in any mood for more crap this week.

We have hit that wall. Both long time contributors to the forum but being petulant children.
Grow up.

He could be worse than Romney

I can't say I saw this coming. TV's Dr. Oz is running to represent Pennsylvania as a Senator, aiming to earn the GOP nomination to replace outgoing Senator Pat Toomey.

Oz also has dual citizenship with Turkey. How is someone loyal to 2 countries at once?

Oz is all good with chemically and physically mutilating our children.

I think that to you 'inability to handle when someone criticizes Trump' is actually exactly equivalent to 'refuses to passively accept my criticism of Trump', and then subsequently I am subjected to a treatise on how rational your decision making is and why mine is not - even though we both lack ANY provably correct data on how the other comes to decisions. IMO your default position is always that you are of course correct and all who disagree are low information/loose and shoddy thinkers

As far as what she has already articulated, it turned out I had no idea who she was until I looked it up. At first I thought it wa Ann Coulter. That particular clip is now the sum total of her body of work I'm familiar with and that is unlikely to change
