Sen. Lindsey Graham Backs Mehmet Oz: Attacks on Dual Citizenship Are ‘Unsavory’
Breitbart ^ | 05/11/2022 | Jordan Dixon-Hamilton

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) backed up celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz on Tuesday, calling attacks on his dual U.S.-Turkish citizenship “unsavory.”

Oz’s campaign for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania has faced scrutiny for his close ties to Turkey, a nation run by autocrat Recep Tayyip Erdogan. In addition to his dual citizenship he has pledged to revoke if elected, resurfaced photos showed Oz voted in Turkey’s most recent presidential election while reportedly not voting in America’s election.

I know Oz will be loyal to Trump

I seriously laughed out loud at that.

Loyalty to Trump does not seem to be much of a thing among politicians. I would take loyalty to the Constitution, the flag and the country for which it stands, which means the United States and not the global managerialist empire of the whole effin world including anything Roooosssshun, but China is our friend.

Lord and savior? What?

Most people hate this pick. They boo at rallies when he says oz

Stop

Trump is trying to replace this horrible group. At least he’s trying. Oz is the best bad idea I’m guessing

149 congress idiots just voted to send help overseas instead of here where there is a lot of need

These guys don’t all have dual citizenship

That’s not the only issue.

Well if ever there was a non-endorsement for MAGA crowd, it’s a thumbs-up from Linda.

Oz would be a complete disaster as “GOP” Senator. BLM marcher, advocate of gender mutilation in chikldren, liar on abortion. He would fight MAGA every single day once in place. DESTROY!

Tough issue for some.

I don’t think it’s an issue at all. I don’t think anybody local, state, or federal should be working for the government who are not singularly a US citizen. Including govt contractors.

That is a reasonable reason.

I’m voting for her, regardless. Oz is a closet, Hollywood liberal.

Final confirmation, as if it were needed, that there’s something going on behind the scenes with OZ. Let’s hope Pennsylvania will take care of business, unlike another state located between Nevada, Arizona and Colorado in their Senate election in 2020.

Yes, exactly. That means he’ll “intend” to but never get around to it. Kinda like me and a household task I’ve got on the list.

America is morphing into a globalist empire - our borders are in Ukraine, Syria, Taiwan, Somalia. Our currency is the currency of the world. Non-citizenship in our country is hardly illegal. Our leaders don’t even need to be fully American.

Exactly. I have heard a million reasons to not vote for Oz. None have to do with his citizenship. Lindsey is playing the Dem game - if his new boyfriend loses, its because those stupid Pennsylvania conservative voters are bigots.

A foreign citizen for a senator is wrong.

I don't understand this dual citizen thing. Certainly not recognized by the US.
The loyalty oath naturalized citizen take..

I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic....
