Seemingly obsessed with the president, Dr. Oz gushed over Trump, calling him "wonderful" for showing concern about a man who fainted during Thursday's press conference.
While speaking to MSNBC’s Jake Traylor after the incident, Dr. Oz revealed he was telling the man's wife what happened when Trump interjected, stating, "Give me the phone."
"He talked to her and got her much calmer than I could have done," he shared. "And I just think he’s just a wonderful human being—that he would take time. He could’ve gone and done ten other things, but he actually cared that the wife of a man that he’s never met before felt in a safer place."
According to reports, the man was confirmed to be a guest from a pharmaceutical company attending the press conference.
