It looks like Donald Trump and Dr. Mehmet Oz won't be friends going forward — especially after the latter lost the midterm election to John Fetterman.
"Trump has told advisors he wants nothing to do with Dr. Oz in his bid for reelection. He is furious. Trump can’t believe Dr. Oz had fame and fortune and was still beaten by a ‘blue-hoodied Shrek-like’ monster. Trump once firmly believed the cult of pop culture would catapult people like him and Oz into office. He’s second guessing everything after the midterm disaster. One thing is certain: Oz will be nowhere near Trump on the road to 2024," the source exclusively tells Radar.
After the TV star didn't come out on top against Fetterman in the Pennsylvania Senate race, New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman gave insight on what the former president was thinking.
"Trump is indeed furious this morning, particularly about Mehmet Oz, and is blaming everyone who advised him to back Oz – including his wife, describing it as not her best decision, according to people close to him," she tweeted.
Excerpt.

Is there NOTHING that isn't Trump's fault?
Oz lost because he was running in Pa,and the Dim candidate always wins in Pa. It is so traditional they might as well legalize voter fraud there and be done with it.
-
Oz's campaign started very slowly after winning the primary. I kept wondering when he would start.
Granted, Fetterlump didn't have to campaign at all, the corruption of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia safely in the pocket of his basketball shorts, but if Oz had come out of the gates swinging, he may have had a chance.

Oz should have never been the candidate, and would not have been had Trump not stuck his nose into Pennsylvania and endorsed him out of the blue at Melania and Hannity's behest. Either Kathy Barnette or Dave McCormick would have been the candidate instead, and both could have beaten Fetterman.
Flashback to March 2022:
"Dr. Oz has a fan at Mar-a-Lago: Melania Trump"
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-election/dr-oz-fan-mar-lago-melania-trump-rcna20641
And if the Dem candidate always wins in PA, then how did we get Senator Pat Toomey (R)?
-
I agree, Rattler. Barnette was the conservative choice, but I think McCormick would have run a much better campaign against the Ogre than Oz did.

Yes
And Trump carried PA in 2016

Yeah....I like how DJT blamed his wife for HIM backing Oz.
He day was 2016. He was needed. He delivered.
He screwed up Covid.
We pushed him in 2020 and he lost.
End of story.

This is the kind of erratic stuff that has made me switch to DeSantis for '24.

Should DeSantis run in '24, I will vote for him and I have no doubt that Trump will do everything to destroy him. The campaign will get ugly just like it did in '16. The last thing the GOP needs is further division and the last thing this country needs is Trump making a mockery of election campaigning.
I still think that the DEMS and GOPe will find a way to prevent Trump from running.

Is Trump going to say the same thing when/if Walker loses in Ga?

It's the problem you have when you invite a big ego to the party.
We needed him in 2016.
He saved us from Hillary.
His time is past.
But he can't see that.

I agree. The Republican Party needs a "Miss Manners" candidate. Someone that Hillary can support.

I don't believe that story was confirmed.

FTA;

Come on folks, are you really giving this pointing-up bullshit credibility?
And using radaronline requires better vetting of sources by @Timber Rattler --- or approching his posts with a shovel and a ton of salt.

You mesn the way she supported trump in 2013?

It's so strange the way you conflate message to mean whatever you need them to mean so you can argue against them.
It's not unlike a lot of extremists on other side.
Enjoy your fantasy war.

While it matters.....
It isn't inconsistent with his lack of accountability for anything that goes wrong under his watchful eye.
-
I guarantee that Trump (and perhaps even Melania) has Haberman on speed dial, as he does all the big New York City reporters, because he just can't help himself with his big mouth.
And as for a gossip and celebrity news rag, Trump can't help himself with those either.

The only guarantee you have to offer is a fertile imagination.

@Kamaji
You mean the fake?
You would get all orgasmic if she did it again,wouldn't you?
And without even questioning her motives,causen yew just a trusting guy,huh?

If you say so, kiddo.

You're talking about the same Trump who mindlessly blabbed for hours of presidential time to Bob Woodward and Michael Wolff because he loves the press and just can't resist.
Remember John Barron?
"Forbes reporter finds tape of Trump 'spokesman' John Barron"

You're talking about the same Trump .......
No, I was actually taking about the only guarantee you can offer @Timber Rattler ------ and IMO, that remains your fertile imagination.

Story might be BS.

@Weird Tolkienish Figure
There is an excellent chance that most of it is BS,with enough "slightly altered facts" thrown in to add confusion.
This works because by the time people curious enough that have the ability to dig into it and separate fact from fiction get through,it is suddenly "next week/next month",and nobody wants to hear about "old news" because there is "new news" that is full of lies to sort through.
-
The "Trump is Furious" headline is hackneyed and cliché. If you look through articles about Trump published from 2015-Today, you will find hundreds possibly thousands of articles about Trump being "furious/irate/enraged/inflamed/fuming/etc.". Anger is a primal sign of being wounded and vulnerable. The corporate media conglomerate were working together to portray Trump as perpetually angry and unstable. And they are still at it today as you can see from this piece of crap article.
But you do not have to believe me. Just note how many "Trump is Furious!" (or similar) articles you see over the next few years.

Story might be BS.
It could be. It could be true. Who knows nowadays. This story sounds more like somebody maybe heard Donald Trump possibly said something to someone

The point though being that one is left to ponder... Because there is no doubt he MIGHT HAVE said it just like that.
In contrast, the stuff they are saying DeSantis said is easily reject-able... as not in his nature. But this kind of behavior is right in Tumpy's wheelhouse.

At least we're not hypocrites. You have jumped my azz many times for select QUOTING of you just as you did to @roamer_1

No, it doesn't... And no, I don't.
Principle things are my interest... Which leaves Tumpy and the gossip rags largely out of my view.
