Barnette blames Sean Hannity for loss in Pennsylvania

Failed GOP Pennsylvania Senate candidate Kathy Barnette took to Twitter to blame Fox News host Sean Hannity for her primary election loss.

“Never forget what Sean Hannity did in this race,” she said in a video posted on Twitter Wednesday. “Almost single handedly Sean Hannity sowed deep seeds of disinformation, flat out lies every night for the past five days and that was just extremely hard to overcome.”

Her comment comes after Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Mehmet Oz said Tuesday Hannity has been giving him advice “behind the scenes.”

“I want to thank Sean Hannity. Sean has been like a brother to me. When Sean punches through something, he really punches through it. He understands exactly how to make a difference and he’s been doing that this entire campaign,” Oz said.

Oz and former hedge fund manager David McCormick are still in a battle for the GOP Senate nomination as the vote was too close to call on Tuesday night.

Barnette declared she would not support Oz or McCormick in the general election, saying she had “no intentions of support[ing] globalists” before the election began Tuesday,

Wallbanger should just retire. He already has more $$$ than he could ever spend, and his ratings will only crumble going forward.

Fetterman is a communist with a pacemaker and a defibrillator in his body. He can’t take care of himself and he’s going to be your choice for senator to take care of the state? Wow

I’ve never seen Hannity go after a candidate in a Republican Primary before this.

I wish Kathy Barnette well as for Hannity I wish him well too but that doesn’t require me to listen to him or watch him I stopped a long time ago.

Oz was fully vetted and the results of the vet op were ignored.

Where’s his Turkish Army DD214?

His disavowal of the political thinking of Oprah?

Maybe because he was the one that put Trump up to nominating Dr. Oz. Trump talked to Dr. Oz three times before he made his decision to go with him. But Hannity has also made some bad choices to the to the president. I think he felt his reputation was on the line. If Hannity does have a cool he lost it.

Fetterman will croak in the next 12 months and then Governor Mastriano will appointment a true conservative for senate (hopefully Lou Barletta). Under NO circumstance will I ever vote for a senator who has citizenship and loyalty to Turkey (ISIS Erdogan).

NY did the same thing to Tom Sullivan. Used to be a good commentator but now just a RINO shill

I’d love to see Lou Barletta be the senator from Pennsylvania. As far as Dr. Oz ‘s Turkish citizenship he has a mother that has Alzheimer’s and she won’t move to the United States. Makes it a lot easier for him to go back and see her if he’s still a citizen. But I agree with you about Lou.

Flavious_Maximus I don’t think that is healthy for our cause. The election was rigged... we need to focus on getting candidates elected who state unequivocally that the election was rigged.

Don’t burn your bridges, Kathy. You might re-emerge in an important position. If your buddy, Doug, wins his race next fall amongst other things IIRC, he gets to appoint the next SOS. From which position she might do a lot to fix the PA election system. And annoy the heck out of the uniparty types. But from my Iowa vantage point I don’t know her well enough to know if she has the right skills for that position. Her heart is right for it but there may be others better for that roll.

>> Don’t burn your bridges, Kathy.

She shouldn’t be complaining and making excuses.

Barnette did well all things considered.

Information warfare works and fox news is clearly part of the democrat taliban party’s information warfare wing.

I happened to hear Hannity on the radio today, for the first time in months. He repeated Barnette’s criticism of him, and said that he invited her on his show, but she refused.

Anyone who does not support Trump and candidates Trump endorses is Anti-Ametican low IQ scum. MAGA is the only way if USA is going to remain viable.
