While former Republican President Donald Trump seems to have gone all-in in support of Dr. Mehmet Oz's bid for one of Pennsylvania's Senate seats, Pennsylvania Republicans seem to have a very different idea.

During a rally in Greensburg on Friday evening—intended to promote Oz's run for Senate—Trump's promotion of the TV doctor didn't quite go according to plan.


The audience seemed to be there mostly to see Trump.

Some outright booed when he said he wanted a strong showing to "secure a massive victory" for Oz at the polls.

You can see video here:



Trump was highly critical of Oz's opponent, David McCormick, branding him "not MAGA."

"Dr. Oz is running against the liberal Wall Street Republican named David McCormick. [He] may be a nice guy, but he’s not MAGA."

Twitter users were merciless in their mockery, as usual.




It would appear McCormick is especially unhappy Oz has garnered Trump's favor.

McCormick has run ads focusing on Oz's dual citizenship with Turkey, claiming his dual citizenship indicates divided loyalties.

Oz's campaign spokesperson Brittany Yanick told The Philadelphia Enquirer:

"These are pathetic and xenophobic attacks on Dr. Oz by David McCormick, who should be ashamed of himself."
"Now that he lost President Trump’s endorsement, he’s resorted to sad and desperate attacks that are no different than the tropes used against Catholics and Jews."

Meanwhile, voters are pointing out that neither Oz nor McCormick are Pennsylvanians.

Both men have been called rich out-of-staters trying to buy the Pennsylvania Senate seat.

It remains to be seen whether Trump's encouragement will help to bolster Oz's support enough to gain him a win by the primary in June.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
