In case you were wondering why Dr. Mehmet Oz – a Harvard-educated Columbia professor and multi-, multi-millionaire TV host – was running for the U.S. Senate, it's to take America back from the "elites with yards." 
Here's *one* of Dr. Oz's houses, by the way, in case you were wondering where he stands vis-à-vis having a yard.
Dr. Oz is one of the most prolific snake oil salesmen in the world (the British Medical Journal says >50% of medical recommendations on his show are bunk). He was an early promoter of hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment, which may have influenced Trump's support for it.
Dr. Oz is, in fact, such a well-known huckster that the U.S. Senate itself – the very chamber he's now running to sit in – once hauled him in to testify about his unsupported diet pill claims. Two years later he would settle a class action lawsuit for $5M. washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/w…
So anyway, yeah, he's got a good shot.
