Seems like GOP is keeping orange menace off air. Let's start a clock

To see how long he's been off camera. 2 days, now? Is it 4? I suspect they're already installing a defacto Vance presidency.

Maybe he's reached his sell-by date. That might explain the melanoma presser: They're throwing up alternate surrogates expecting to keep feeding the magas without risking dementia fubar moments.

The Walter Reed rumors were BS but it’s odd for him to keep his stupid mouth shut for a whole day. He screwed up bad and he knows it.

some kinda weird (even for him!) tirade about fox news, nato, and some other stuff. So he hasn't completely shut up or not been seen.
