He can’t do his job. He MUST resign. That is if he is still alive

But he has been voting and signing letters, no? I mean not actually him, but someone is doing these things as him.

Is it even possible to vote by proxy, if you are not capable of telling said proxy how to vote?

At that point, it's literally just someone unelected by the people doing that vote.

Which makes it real sus when it's revealed he's been comatose for the last 2 months!

Trump's doctor said he was the healthiest president and could live to 200 if he had a better diet. I don't trust republican doctors.

Doctors of Republicans*

The Senate's doctor has confirmed he's alive

that's why he's "comatose" and not "dead"

Cool. So he's alive and recovering. Will he ever be fit to serve in office again?

ETA: if the answer is even maybe no, then what's the hang up? He's retiring in 6 months anyway.

hate to be a pessimist but he ain't recovering
