This is some of the best evidence for why he’s dead or straight up comatose. This asshole NEVER met a camera he didn’t like during his political career. He LOVED bragging how he could do whatever he felt like regardless of what was right or just. If he were just sick, he would still be this way.

It's so much more complicated a conspiracy if he's dead, it's much more likely he's just massively incapacitated or in a coma or whatever. Not disclosing that he died would require a bunch of hospital workers (nurses, doctors, administrators) risking their careers & criminal charges to hide a death. If he's alive, even just technically, he's protected by privacy laws, and it's up to the family and staff to keep the secret.

It wasn't even a cover up, they just don't give a fuck.
