https://www.abc27.com/pennsylvania-senate-race/pennsylvania-senate-race-oz-says-he-would-have-certified-bidens-win-over-trump/Mehmet Oz, the celebrity physician and Trump-backed Republican Senate nominee in Pennsylvania, said on Tuesday that he would have voted to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election had he been in office at the time.
Asked at a press conference if he would have objected to the certification of the election results, Oz said that it is the job of the Senate to approve the Electoral College vote and that, had he been in the Senate at the time, he would have done so.
I would not have objected to it, Oz said. By the time the delegates and those reports were sent to the U.S. Senate, our job was to approve it, which is what I would have done.
While Ozs latest remarks could help him counter Democratic attacks and appeal to a broader slice of the electorate, it also puts him at risk of alienating former President Trump and some of the Republican Partys most loyal voters. (continues)
Welp there goes his MAGA creds. TFG will probably call him an idiot as well.

Dr. Oz believes all abortions are murder.
I believe it's a decision that should only be between a woman and her doctor.
Thats all there is to it. Oz cant have it both ways.
