    I’m seeing conflicting reports. Newsweek says he did not show, and his staffers released a statement. CBS says he was seen in public and at the senate. Still have set to see any video evidence of this.

      CBS says

      With the conservative purchase of CBS, going forward you should assume “CBS says” carries the same amount of truth as “Alex Jones says”.

      There’s clips of him being wheeled out of his house too. Doesn’t look like he spoke with any reporters. I’m guessing a stroke affected his speech. He certainly looks significantly older than three months ago.

        looks significantly older

        There’s an episode of dr. Who where they age the doctor physically to match his age and glitchin’ Mitch still looks older than the 900 year old CGI goblin of 2010 BBC evening sci-fi. How could he possibly look any older?

          Good match for Davros, the creator of the Daleks. Good match with the lore too.

            Truth. Or a slitheen: he does give the impression of one who can readily unzip the meat suit.

              He doesn’t look capable of readily doing anything, more like a pupal Slitheen realising the carapace they are stuck in is too tough and unmoving to escape from.

        I’m still not ruling out a Weekend at Bernie’s situation. They had plenty of time to figure out how to puppet his corpse.

          It’s much easier with the wheelchair, you have a stable base and just use animatronics for the head and arms. Not a bad effort but wouldn’t hold up as a Disney World exhibit.

        Truly, I am shocked he is alive and looks as well as he does.
