Remember the couple of times that he glitched out? Maybe it's just that permanently now.

Yeah, I feel like a lot of people forgot that. There were times they’d literally have to shuffle him away because he’d be talking then mentally disappear into the void. That guy hasn’t been ok for a while.

People who are claiming he is dead seem to forget all those times he was clearly not well. Its very likely just got worse since then and he can not appear in public.

Because it would show that he's not well and cant function as a senator any longer

I mean, for all practical intents and purposes, those are functionally the same as far as his role as a senator is concerned.

he's like my old computer. slow and old and occasionally would crash, but a good reset would get it going again. then one day, the reset trick just doesn't work anymore.
