Trump Tells Newsmax He’s Endorsing Dr. Oz

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday endorsed “the brilliant and well-known” Dr. Mehmet Oz in Oz’s bid to represent Pennsylvania in the U.S. Senate, saying the “doctor is smart, tough, and will never let you down; therefore, he has my complete and total endorsement.”

He went to the Wharton school of finance, and he also went to Penn medical school.
