Trump Wants to Nominate Dr. Mehmet Oz to Oversee Medicare and Medicaid

The selection of Dr. Oz, who lost to John Fetterman in 2022 in a race to represent Pennsylvania in the Senate, is likely to be seen as a major surprise, even in a health department that could be led by another unconventional pick, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. It also continued a trend of Mr. Trump selecting television personalities to oversee federal agencies. His candidates to run the Defense and Transportation Departments have been working for Fox News and Fox Business.

Dr. Oz has frequently clashed with medical experts. In the early days of the pandemic, he promoted the malaria drugs hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine to ward off the coronavirus. A decade ago, he went before a Senate panel and was chastised for selling so-called miracle weight loss pills without substantial proof that they worked.

I suppose you don't need to be a legitimate medical expert to be in charge of Medicare and Medicaid.

Definitely courage. They've got the brains, and mostly have a heart for those less fortunate than themselves. They lack the courage to do what is right.
