Just be up front about it. Your military service had nothing to do with it or everyone would be voting for McCormick. Trump told you what he needs but you know better. That’s fine, you are willing to risk that PA senate seat that could flip to a full out socialist. That’s fine but this is going to get serious and you guys are perfectly willing to gamble with the future of the country. That’s not MAGA.

Looks like she’s 2 points down.

Trump has known Oz a long time. Would not make sense for him to not endorse him now.

I’m surprised that he hasn’t endorsed Lou Barletta for Governor, or has he?

I would think that if Kathy wins, Trump, Oz and McCormick will all campaign for her. If so, then she should win.

The same for if Oz wins, we should all rally around him.

There is no doubt she has the credentials.

“Longtime friend of gun control advocate Oprah Winfrey, Dr. Oz is entering the Pennsylvania Senate race. However, what is looking to be a “fox in the hen house” scenario, Oz is running on the Republican ticket. 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.”

Enough said!

Agreed. That was a strange thread. A hit job from twitter with quotes from 7 years ago. People change when reality plays out. It is too late for candidates to put things in context so now the liberals are at their most duplicitous.

People who try and say not agreeing with every Trump position means that one is not a Trump supporter are like the Rats that say if you aren’t for me you ain’t black. Those scorched earth techniques don’t work on any thinking person and diminish the credibility of the person using them. We need to pull together on common ground; there is much we all agree on.

I’m not worried about some guy from Arizona telling me I ain’t MAGA if I don’t follow Trump blindly and vote for RINO 0z in PA.

It’s just silly..

“If Trump supports him, then so do I.”

Trump is human and makes mistakes. Have a mind of your own.

I watched the rally, he did not get booed.

Watch a replay and listen how the producers turn up the music to drown out the boos.

Three of my friends were there and they told me they and people around them booed oz, which was the reason they went, because we had all been to Trump rallies before this one.

All of my local pals are Trumpers and not a single one is for oz.

Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Go to a Trump for Dr. Oz Rally and boo Dr. Oz

I have a crazy idea!

Maybe if Barnette wins the primary Trump could endorse her in the general? I know it’s wacky, but....

There were definitely some boos mixed in the applause.

He could, but probably won’t because endorsing a person who wins the primary (where the endorsement matters) isn’t usually done .

Watching Kathy interviewed on Laura. She’s pretty impressive. She doesn’t have the money the other two have, so she’s going to have a harder time getting the message out.

Sounds too, that the media has been hard on her.

I like her. I’ll stand by my bet, but I will tell you that she has a pretty good chance of winning. She is certainly sharp.

A local talk jock, with a morning 3 hour talkshow, 6-9:00 AM, over the net [Warroom.com], {ultra-maga type, Jim Quinn} was pro oz because of Trump.

I've known Quinn since the 70s and disco joints and other joints, and send him emails a coupla times a week.

He finally did a little in depth research on Kathy and this morning had his first positive story about her.

Quinn is even more conservative than Rush was and is my last salvation in listening to talking heads.

At $5 a month it's a good listen at warroom.com {commercial over} :)

BTW; you are a man of your word, thanks.

Clearly Trump is backing Oz out of friendship and loyalty. Otherwise he would be backing Kathy no doubt.

She’s the only candidate actually from PA.

When’s the vote, next Tuesday?
