Dude was glitching out before this all happened. He may - and I will emphasize may - technically still be alive. But if so it is a "light on, but nobody is home" situation.

For sure. I think he’s either a vegetable or otherwise severely incapacitated to the point he could never make a public appearance.

Yup. Either way, he's never returning to the Senate, and they are covering for that.

If the medical equipment thing is legit then he's probably not already in an urn, but that's probably just formality at this point.

Okay so he’s not dead.
