Dr. Oz repeatedly booed by crowd at Donald Trump rally held for the Pennsylvania GOP Senate hopeful

A crowd of Donald Trump supporters repeatedly "booed" Dr. Mehmet Oz ahead of a Friday night rally for the Pennsylvania GOP Senate candidate held by the former president.

The Trump-portion of the rally in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, was slated to begin at 8 p.m. ET, but several rain-soaked Trump enthusiasts were already making their distaste for the celebrity doctor known before the event officially started.

Twice when a prerecorded message from Oz went on the jumbotron at the rally, a substantial portion of the crowd, of roughly several thousand, booed.

Attendees also booed Oz's name when an introductory speaker mentioned endorsing him early on, and again when Trump-endorsed Ohio primary winner JD Vance offered his support.

1. he's got a furrin name

[Grokenstein]

2. I was going to say...

"No way! When you're too much of a blatant grifter for trump trash..." but yeah, you're right. He's a "doctor" plus his name's "Mehmet." That's what turns them off.

[keep_left]

15. Yep. They don't want no cardiologist tellin' them to stop eatin' the greaseburgers...

...and mac 'n cheese. Plus, he's a dual national, a Muslim, an Ivy Leaguer, and he's permanently associated with Oprah. Not exactly the right demographic for Q idiots.

20. A Prediction

As odd as it may be I can see many of the Drumpt voters, dissatisfied with elitists like "Dr." Oz, backing John Fetterman in the Senate race. Fetterman has that "authentic" quality that is all the rage with the Independent voter, a group that determines the winners in American elections. Let us hope.

[FakeNoose]

32. I believe there's enough dissatisfaction among the Repukes here in PA

... and I also believe that John Fetterman (if he wins the Dem primary) would do a good job bleeding off several of those unhappy voters. And he could grab the independents, and we have many in Pennsylvania. Make no mistake, Fetterman talks the talk and walks the walk (as a progressive), but he's also a smart guy who knows how to talk to "regular folks."

Conor Lamb has a different kind of appeal, he's a middle of the road Democrat. We'll know if a couple of weeks who's going to get the nod.

3. Dang, no video!

I want to see this on video, man! Dying to see his reaction,

4. This rally location is in my "backyard"

It's in Westsmoreland County, which is considerably wealthier than my neighboring Fayette County. Once a solidly Democrat/union area, both are now Super Trump Country. But if Oz got booed here, it's because they don't like his ethnicity. They don't really like people of color here. Funny names even less. You should hear them complaining about all of the "Indian" doctors. If it was any other carpetbagger, white with an "American" name, they'd love him.

I know the people here, having lived here for 60 years, and they are VERY racist. Fayette County had never before been won by a GOP candidate until Barack Obama was the candidate. Having said that, I know loads of wonderful, non-racist people here, and we are mortified by our neighbors' love of Trump. I proudly wear my "Fuck Trump" baseball cap everywhere I go. Friends say, "You're going to get your ass kicked one of these days." I've had a few sidelong looks, but in terms of comments, the only ones I get (to my face) are along the lines of, "love your hat; where'd you get it?"

[ebbie15644]

24. I'm in Westmoreland county too

I believe the other guy is way more extreme and that is why they are supporting him instead of Oz. Fox spent years denigrating Hollywood "elite"

You are braver than I am. I'm in Penn Township and I'm actually afraid to show my dem support. I'm afraid of vandalism of my house, car, etc. Out on rt22 one of these yahoo's actually threatened to shoot me in a "road rage" incident

[Deminpenn]

25. As also a western Pennsylvania,

I can attest to the truth of what you say. But I think the endless attack ads running in western PA have taken a toll on Oz, too. They seem like they'd be effective with the kind of voters at whom they are aimed. Then there is Oz' years on TV and what he said then vs what he says now. The latter two things just add to what many already believe that Oz is a carpet-bagger who doesn't believe what he's telling voters.

The latest F&M Poll has him at only 18% after Trump endorsed him. Jmho, but if McCormick had continued with the clever ads playing up his PA roots and not trying to appeal to the Trumpers, he'd be leading the primary. McCormick's a traditional R, worked in a Bush admin. His wife, Dina Powell, worked in the Trump WH, but she was brought on board by Gary Cohen also a traditional R interested in using Trump for tax cuts, deregulation and other R economic priorities that favor the wealthy and business interests, but not interested in the rw social agenda of Bannon, Miller et al.

6. Are they that racist that they won't even vote for a non-religious Muslim who agrees with them?

[bucolic_frolic]

8. Deep thinking? In rural Pennsylvania?

If he were Dr. Schultz it would be a lot easier for him

[PatSeg]

27. Apparently they had several issues with Oz

The primary one is the fact that he used his in-laws' address in Pennsylvania to vote even though he lived in New Jersey. "I just want somebody from Pennsylvania, someone who actually grew up here," said one voter.

Then there is the fact that his views on abortion and gun rights are always shifting. He is also seen as "too Hollywood" and not authentic enough.

7. Was there any miracle cure or fad diet

that this quack didn't promote ?? Even the AMA came out against his constant hyping of phony quick fixes, and endorsing cures and miracle supplements for everything from lowering your cholesterol to losing weight to bowel cleansing. He jumped on every new fad that hit the market. I remember he got hauled before Congress and didn't convince anyone that he was qualified to "sell" such crap on TV.

Thanks Oprah.

[kimbutgar]

9. I hope all those people are cold and miserable

And maybe ask themselves if TFG the cult leader is worth it?







Nah probably not!

[Thomas Hurt]

10. The cultists don't like them there furriners with funny names.

Donnie is going to have chide his children on this one or give up on Oz no matter how good an ass kisser he is.

[Lunabell]

11. Hahaha!

They don't like this "mooslem". Too funny.

[The Wizard]

12. Shocked to learn Trump supports a TV huckster.

[Marcuse]

13. Rumor has it that Pennsylvania is Pittsburgh and Philly with Alabama in between.

[greenjar_01]

19. Those aren't 2020 results

[Marcuse]

28. No. October 2020 registration.

[quakerboy]

33. there are precious few states that dont look like that

Empty land is by and large painted red on such maps

[IronLionZion]

14. How many of them called ICE to deport him?

Because growing up in PA they never had any neighbors with names like Mehmet Oz stealing jobs away from Americans.

I grew up in rural western PA and peaced out as soon as I turned 18.

Where are you from?
Here.
No, before you were born.



Mediaite has videos of him speaking and some booing.

16. Quite the conundrum, isn't it?

"Vote for the mooooslem or let that baby-eater Fetterman win"

[Initech]

17. The MAGAs are eating each other.

[LudwigPastorius]

18. LOL! Oz is "too Hollywood", yet...

the spray-tanned, hair-dyed, twice-divorced, reality show host they worship is a salt-of-the-earth man of the people.

Those MAGAts really are nothing but walking brain stems.

[LittleGirl]

21. +1 nt

[keithbvadu2]

30. Back in his day, right wingers accused Obama of being a 'celebrity'.

22. Several thousand, I just read a post saying 600 people showed up for the rally.

[Deminpenn]

26. True cultists. Weather was bad, lots of rain and the usual

flooding with a few landslides in western PA yesterday and continuing into today.

[twodogsbarking]

23. Did Trump want to shoot them in the legs,

tear gas them, fire rockets, nuclear weapons, or rough them up ? Is he slipping?

[myohmy2]

29. oh dear...

...

[ultralite001]

34. Is it my imagination, or...

Is the RTumpster's girth growing to match the size of his ego???

Gives new meaning to the word "rotund"--duh...

That is all...

[Cha]

35. Why doesn't the Cult like Oz?

💙💛

[Cha]

36. PS.. After reading the thread I see

why the crowd doesn't like Oz even after the Big Fascist Cult Failed Coup Psycho Endorsed him .

💙💛
