He was "very sick" for several months, so seems like it, yeah.

He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Fox has become fake news too. I feel he's definitely going to end up doing something with OANN if he loses.

I foreseen one really big problem with that.  Trump is insanely jealous.  He got really, really angry at Fox for simply covering the Democratic primary.  I'm not sure he will be able to tolerate a TV channel that isn't primarily about him.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That's why I think he'll do something with OANN - they've already replaced Fox in his affections. He regularly boosts them.

Well, OANN will need to boost new politicians to keep the movement and I don't think Trump can stand that.  It must be ALL about him.

Oh I think he'll be fine moaning about the election that was stolen from him, how awful Biden is and how much better he'd be doing. And I think plenty of GOP politicians will come and be obsequious to try and get the Trump endorsement of whatever they're doing. I think this is what he's always wanted, even in 2016: power and attention but no responsibility.

So long as Trump is alive and has a twitter account he will dominate the Republican Party. I have no doubt he will be all over conservative media as its biggest celebrity politician for as long as he draws breath.

I agree. Any Republican who wants to lead the party had better hope that Trump is either dead or behind bars shortly after leaving office.  If he wins again he'll demand a change in the US Constitution so that he can run for a third term.

I know I said this before, but I still think that once Trump is out of office, he's a nobody, and in fact is most useful as a wipe for the spineless Republicans with blood on their hands.

Once Trump is defeated I suspect a lot of GOP politicians are going to go "Trump?  Trump who?"

I'm more afraid of what Trump's base is going to do than I am the GOP.

That would be great! But I don't think so.

Yeah, no chance of that. It'll just be the Cottons and the Hawleys picking up the banner.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
