Mehmet Oz may have given John Fetterman an insult that sounded more like a compliment than a real insult. Fetterman, Pennsylvania's lieutenant governor, wears a hoodie, something Oz finds unacceptable. Oz said that it was not an accident when he wore that dress. He knows how to kick the balls. He says he is the man. I will show them who is in charge. The comments were shared on the social networking site. Dr. Oz took aim at John Fetterman’s clothing and said he was “stunned by” the “costume” and believes it contains a “deeper message.” Oz: “When he dresses like that, he’s kicking authority in the balls.” pic.twitter.com/Mrne6ZEOGJ
September 26, 2022 is the anniversary of the founding of the United States.
Oz and his team have made a number of unforced errors, such as a video of Oz griping about the high price of "crudité" while botching the name of a beloved regional supermarket chain.
Fetterman referred to the tray as a vegetarian one.
After Fetterman suffered a stroke, Oz, a doctor who used to host a TV show, made a campaign issue of his health, and one campaign aide mocked Fetterman for it, which backfired.
He accused Fetterman of kicking authority in the balls, something critics noted might be what voters want.
Oz again shows that he is not from Pennsylvania.
I mean, if you advertised an event where Philadelphians were given the opportunity to "Come kick authority in the balls." there would be a line 6 miles long before the first kick was landed. https://t.co/TB2lSlMOx9

“He’s kicking authority in the balls” feels like a damn good tagline that Fetterman’s social media team is going to spin into gold. https://t.co/vAUN3y9j75
