McConnell doesn’t care if Dr. Ooze wins. He knows Ooze or McCormick will be in his corner should one of them win the seat.

He’s running as a Republican because only Republicans are stupid enough to vote for him.

Let's see what Dr. Oz's web site says. doctoroz.com

"Dr. Oz is Pro-Life, very strong on Crime, the Border, Election Fraud, our Great Military, and our Vets, Tax Cuts, and will always fight for and support our under-siege Second Amendment. He will ensure America will become Energy Independent again. Dr. Oz also passionately believes in high-quality education and protecting parent involvement throughout the process. Perhaps most importantly, I believe that Mehmet Oz will be the one most able to win the General Election against a Radical Left Democrat looking to do unthinkable harm to our Country." - PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

"WHY I'M RUNNING
...
" a great surgeon never censors ideas and never shuts off the light that shines on our wounds, which is what happened while our nation battled the pandemic. "
...
"Growing up as an immigrant’s kid, I witnessed my family’s sacrifices to thrive in the USA. My father grew up dirt poor (literally sleeping on a dirt floor) and loved this country as much as anyone already here because he saw the deep darkness of the alternatives.
...
"The urgency of my decision crystalized during the pandemic. At least half a million American people have died from the virus, a devastating toll for families and communities. What also hurts is that many of those deaths were preventable.
"Covid-19 became an excuse for government and elite thinkers who controlled the means of communication, especially social media and our major news agencies, to suspend debate. Dissenting opinions from leading scholars, even Nobel Laureates, were cancelled and ridiculed so their ideas could not be disseminated. Doctors were forbidden from prescribing legal medications for the first time in our nation’s history. I tried to fund clinical trials to re-purpose an already widely used drug for possible benefits against Covid-19, but they were banned. Instead, government mandated policies that caused unnecessary suffering.

ISSUES
"Dr. Oz seeks to rebuild the middle layers of society – institutions like family and community – that have been hollowed out by failed policies, narrow thinking, and toxic culture wars. He knows that no government can substitute for the dignity of work, the security of health care, and the spiritual support of our family.
...
List of Issues (drilldowns on each one)

He has a record of being on the other side. I don’t trust him.

Now, however, Oz’s past has come back to haunt him, as it’s been revealed that he has a long history of donating to Democrats.

Oz’s past political donations were exposed by Newsmax’s Logan Ratick in a Twitter thread that revealed the television personality previously donated to Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) in 2011, former White House Chief of Staff Erskine Bowles’ losing 2004 campaign for U.S. Senate in North Carolina, former New York Rep. Charlie Rangel in 2001, and to U.S. Climate Czar John Kerry’s 2001 U.S. Senate campaign in Massachusetts.

Although his campaign rhetoric sounds conservative, his stance on red flag laws does not. Even though Dr. Oz supports gun control, according to his own words and actions, it is not a part of his campaign messaging.
