Oz urges Fetterman to switch parties after RNC appearance

Dr. Mehmet Oz, administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, said on a podcast Thursday that he wants Sen. John Fetterman to switch parties and join the Republicans. Oz made the comments a day after Fetterman appeared unexpectedly at the Republican National Committee’s midterm convention.

Fetterman’s appearance at the event caught many by surprise, as the Pennsylvania senator is a Democrat. Oz, a former Republican who ran against Fetterman in Pennsylvania’s 2022 Senate race, expressed his hope that Fetterman would cross the aisle and become a Republican.

Fetterman’s political affiliation and recent activities have kept him in the spotlight. Oz’s comments reflect ongoing political tensions and speculation about party loyalty in the state.
