President Donald Trump is urging Pennsylvania Republicans to reject surging Senate candidate Kathy Barnette in a Tuesday primary as controversial past remarks surface making her a tougher sell in the general election.
Trump backs Dr. Oz ahead of voting in what appears to be a three-way race against Barnette, a firebrand political commentator and failed 2020 House candidate, and businessman David McCormick.
“She lost her race as a congressional candidate by more than 20 points. She was really hit hard,” Trump said in Thursday night teleconference remarks circulated by Oz’s campaign.
“The problem is nobody knows what she is, what she stands for, who she is. It’s very risky because you’re going to win this with Oz,” Trump added.
“Kathy’s going to be a lot of trouble. I think she’s going to be a lot of trouble,” Trump said. “She may have a great future, but she’s totally an unknown. We can’t have that. So a vote for Oz is a vote for victory, and a vote for anyone else is a vote for giving away an election that really has to be had. We have to take a majority in the Senate.”

“ You are supporting CHUCK SCHUMER. Good going!”
*************************************************
Wow! You’re saying that if you support a conservative America First candidate running against the Great and Powerful Oz you’re supporting Chuck Schumer.
They really should have given you Flying Monkeys a better spiel before sending you flying off on your mission.
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
The Pennsylvania GOP has been dominated by useless, corrupt hacks for years. They spent four years undermining Trump while he was in office. Because of that, he made a point of screwing them by endorsing a TV clown who has no ties to the state political machine and doesn’t even live in Pennsylvania.
Trump is not wrong.
But...
Less RINO risk with her.
Why don’t you do what Trump says!
How quickly some of you forget how Trump pulled our fat out of the fire!
What grinder he was put through!
WHY DONT YOU JUST DO WHAT TRUMP SAYS!!!!
Sounds like you’re engaging in ‘wishful thinking’ on Trump’s pick of Oz unless you have some ‘insider knowledge’.
Barnette cannot win. The PA Senate seat MUST be won for majority. If we don’t keep the Senate, what do you think happens? Chuck Schumer is in charge. Think, HA, think. Aunt B was right earlier. You guys have gone full TDS and WOKE. Very sad...
*GET the Senate.
“… You guys have gone full TDS and WOKE. Very sad.…”
********************************************************
I do believe you’re showing signs of mental illness. Woke? TDS?
Get a grip!
“She lost her race as a congressional candidate by more than 20 points.”
Debunked numerous times.
Trump has gone full retard here. Almost as retarded as the Ozbot who spends his/her/its entire day posting this trash.
You squishes are going to be in full panic come Tuesday night. Then the Barnette saboteurs/Fetterman supporters on here will ramp it up even more.
lol
so you are saying the end justifies the means
NOBODY knows how Kathy will do in the general; not even Pres Trump , and most certainly not you!
vote for the bestperson in the primary
and the non-dem in the general
Ditch gets rich being in the minority.
If he can’t control all GOPee Senators, he’s perfectly willing to let the Party go down.
He’s not known as China Mitch for nothing.
If Kathy wins the primary and THEN the Dems lambast her with all of the stuff she has said that is out there THEN those screaming about backing her work will learn the hard way!! I LOVE Kathy but she can’t win the general I despise OZ and have resigned to the fact we are going to lose the seat in PA. I am focusing on AZ. and GA.!!
““The problem is nobody knows what she is, what she stands for, who she is.”
I can’t believe Trump the celebrity outsider said this.
Nobody knows how Oz and McCormack? will turn out.
It’s a total crap-shoot.
—> Like E15 gasoline.
I believe the purpose was strategic.
I agree with all Trump said.
Barnette could be big trouble now, even though her future may be (likely is) very bright.
But she’s going to need time to rebuild back after all of her old statements, tweets and so on come out.
The Dems wont give her that chance before November.
More like a forest from that acorn.
Yes. We must obtain a true majority in the senate.
Keeping the PA seat is critical for that task.
Don't know why GOP primary voters like to throw away winnable Senate seats.
