It looks like Trumpism gone wild in the aftermath of the Pennsylvania elections. Mastroiano has refused to concede despite Shapiro's big margin of victory.

But what's truly bizarre is that at 9:30 in the morning Pennsylvania time, Mehmet Oz called Jon Fetterman and asked him to concede. Are we seeing a particularly crazed example of denialism?

Fetterman is one of the worst candidates Ive ever seen. What are voters thinking?

I guess that, at the least, they were thinking that Trump's choice was worse. Thank you, Donald Trump.

Really? That's why Oz and others were piling onto him because of his stroke? The unfavorable reports on the his performance in the debate helped him? Kidding yourself much?

Typical exaggeration. And you might want to look up "Broca's area". Unless, of course, you want to claim neurology in addition to gerontology as an area of your expertise.

This mantra is all you've got. That, and an apparently utter lack of knowledge about neurology.

But what is really clear is the Oz was a terrible choice and he won the nomination only because of Trump's support. An out of touch out of stater.

Well look at their health conditions. Seems to work. They voted in Reagan as well. Americans choose based on sympathy.

Oz lost because he was an absurdly bad choice made passible by the poor judgement of Donald Trump. Whatever possessed Trump to think that an a rich out-of-stater was a good choice. The only thing Oz had in his favor vis-a-vis Republicans is that he was an endorser of quack medicines.

If 0.5lbs of weight loss occurs technically it works. I agree though its a waste of funds and misleading the gullible.

 

Best weight loss comes from sc mind reprogramming not pills. The magic pill is your mind.

McConnell was right to say that candidate quality could blow party's chances for senate control. Trump takes the full blame for the loss. 

You might want to wait a bit before opening the bubbly. It's a toss up which party will win, and it was never guaranteed the GOP would take the senate, though hoped for.

 

Unfortunately, it's probably going to be some days yet before we know on that one.
