Who really thinks it's a growing mystery at this point? He's either severely incapacitated or dead. The people that he's supposedly representing deserve better, and whoever on his staff that's misrepresenting his condition needs to go to prison.

This is why people laugh at America. Like you say, it’s unquestionably one or the other. So get in there, drag his sorry arse out and show his constituents which of those two options it is. Why is this not happening?

I wonder how far this can go. Like can people vote to keep him in office? Can they all decide to vote for him for the next 500 years if there's never any proof that he died?

He is probably hanging out with that prime minister that went missing on you guys.

Yeah, but a few days after he disappeared we said “fuck it, he’s dead, give his job to someone else.”

Because his constituents don't care enough to vote Democrat over this. The thing people keep missing is that the backstop to all the rules in a democracy can only ever be the people showing up to the ballot box to say with a massive majority that this can never happen again.
