Over the past few days, two very prominent doctors in this country all but ruined their careers in 48 hours flat.
It all started when Dr. Mehmet Oz, cardiothoracic surgeon and Columbia University professor, sat down for a segment with Fox News and essentially declared that people would be willing to let their kids die, or at least run the risk of letting their kids die, so long as Donald Trump’s economy was allowed to open back up to business as usual.
Oz attempted to backpedal with an apology later that day, but honestly, there’s really no taking that back, y’know?
And then shortly after, psychologist Dr. Phil McGraw bit the dust right behind him after he attempted to compare the deaths suffered by the outbreak to those in automobile accidents and swimming pool deaths — once again… On Fox News.
Phil mirrored his fellow health “professional” by issuing a half-baked, begrudging apology for his statement — but as with Dr. Oz, no one has time for his nonsense, people are literally dying by the thousands at this point.

Honestly, is there really any explanation needed here? It’s pretty clear where Dr. Phil seems to be getting his “ideas” from, even without the picture. All that does is solidify the notion for me that he can be chalked up as yet another useless Trump supporter.
Twitter users seemed to feel the same:

Even LOOKS like Phil might have OD’ed on the #OrangeKoolAid here.

When a picture says more than 1000 words AND provides the answer.
