>Don't be fooled by this pretense. MAGA republicans are already actively working towards getting him another term

Yes, he's in such excellent health, I can definitely see him living (and non-comatose!) long enough for that.

I’m surprised he is vertical. He acts like how Biden looks.

    I expect him to be walled off from external appearances within some amount of time so he can focus on truly important projects. Like redesigning the lawn. Or the amount of gold leaf on everything.

    My real question, if/when that happens, who is pulling the strings with the most sway?

      I think it's evident that no one is in firm control. The Elon Musk fallout was that... Musk overreached or miscalculated, and one of the other contenders saw the opportunity to oust him. But I don't think that contender has consolidated his hold yet, Trump's too flighty. The answer could be changing day to day, depending on which asshat manages to ambush him first (or best) as they walk to the meeting room.
