10. I wouldn't call his comments a "split" from Trump so much as expanding the wiggle room

that Trump already included in his statement (by stating that it's his "opinion" and saying "do what you need to do.&quot . So, again we have a headline that overstates what is in the article, That said, I guess it shows that "Dr." Oz hasn't totally abandoned everything he ever learned in medical school (though he has clearly abandoned a lot of to it).

Regarding the comment concerning including women in drug studies, it is only going to get worse now. The Trump Administration has already come out against disaggregated data, calling it "woke." If you don't have to report on how drugs impact women, you don't need to include them in trials at all. Our government dollars at work for us!

Anyone who wants to learn more about Oz (and about how Oprah is horrible for promoting him, by the way), here is an interesting podcast:
