Dr. Oz told his followers to take driver’s licenses away from their friends who aren’t voting for him.

Oz: “They shouldn’t be driving.”

with the way the US is going.

He actually is right, just not in the way he is projecting. Anyone who thinks MAGAts are a good development is fucking mental.

However, rather than disgrace L. Frank Baum's wonderful creation through association, I prefer to think of "Ozymandias" by Percy Bysshe Shelley.

"...Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

And I think Shelley would likely concur.

He must have had a few fans. I didn't like him as a person much less watch his show.

I thought he was so demeaning to his almost always women only audiences. But then again, the women in the audience usually acted like dummies and they were like a cult, similar to you know who. Some women thought he was so handsome and I just never saw that. I thought he was creepy looking.

And the five people that were there laughed. That they were there tells me all I need to know about them.

He hooked himself up to TFG thinking he could ride it to victory. Instead, its bringing him down and he just shot his TV career as well.

They're a special lot. I'm not talking about the ones who give interviews or quotes to the local papers about some topic or whatever public health or side thing they're pushing (e.g. some free screening or school-based program). The ones who make money hawking something are pretty damn corrupt, attention-seeking, and even for doctors they lean steeply into the narcissism cliff.

We saw this with the idiot talking-head doctors who made asses of themselves in the opening weeks of the pandemic.
