Dr. Oz's Old Tweets About Poop Have Come Back To Humiliate Him Even More Than He Has Been Already

It’s been a rollercoaster summer, but one of the most delightful running gags of the season has been the repeated humiliation of congressional candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz. The former TV star wants so badly to fill a vacating Senate seat in Pennsylvania he even moved from Jersey. Unfortunately, he’s running against John Fetterman, who’s spent the last few months mercilessly, creatively trolling his opponent. But sometimes all Fetterman has to do is wait for others to dig up some dirt then do the pouncing.

Over the weekend, people dug up some old tweets Oz made when he was a television health adviser of dubious credibility. These were about poop. They might even be helpful; one’s leavings are a good sign of how healthy one is (or isn’t). Trouble is, at least one tweet, from 2013, featured a generic link to his website…which is now all about his troubled senatorial campaign. Which means that it now reads weird.


Fetterman was quick to turn the gaffe into yet another of his Oz burns.

1. Here's an old SNL sketch about Dr. Oz and his poop fixation.

6. That was perfect. Sometimes SNL really gets it in an almost predictive manner.

2. That's hilarious!

Dr. Oz needs to hang it up.

This has been the most entertaining political campaign I've ever seen.

5. So where does 'promoting Dr. Oz' land on Oprah's list of lifetime regrets?

Even the bombastic "Dr. Phil" looks a bit less embarrassing in comparison.

8. The election results should factor in

If the polls are wrong.

7. I would think that after four years of Trump anyone could now recognize a charlatan.

TV personalities with no clue about how the world works do not make good senators (or presidents).

9. "Chip In"... unintentional pun? Or not...

10. I only watched a few of his shows, but he was always talking

about something not usually discussed in polite company. Sometimes informative, but kind of off topic for a cardiac surgeon.

12. How is it

That one person can be so bad at this while another is so good at this?
