Trump seems to be in hiding from the media for the past few days, but the corporate media is silent

[senseandsensibility]

I'm not sure what's going on, but I've read most of the threads here on DU about how trump is using old pictures on his social media and not taking any questions from the reporters at all. Apparently, this has been going on for a few days now, and is very unusual. Many of the people I follow on bluesky are commenting on it, like Ron Filipkowski and I'm sure many others.

I haven't been seeking out info or posts about this, but it certainly is a thing on the "intertubes".

And yet.....dead silence from the corporate media. Nothing from MSNBC or CNN or nbcnews.com.

More normalizing and or sanewashing? Or is this a nothingburger?

1. He's too old and lost too many marbles.

Joe Biden's still going though.

2. But can't the corporate media see that?

They sure would if Biden did the same.

8. Corporate media

The corporate media is controlled by the billionaires who put Trump back into the White House to go after everything g working people have. They are not on the side of regular people, they’re on Trump’s side.

3. I don't care

We will know what there is to know when we know it.

Far too many other important things to pay attention to.

I’m not afraid of missing the first few minutes of the “he’s finally dead” party.

4. Clearly somethings up!

Mr. tRump can't keep his anus-mouth shut, himself away from the cameras, or go without feeding his megalomaniac sense that he needs to control everything and everyone 24/7. He is notorious for his all-night tweet storms, too, often coming out as a word salad of delusion, grandiosity, need, and paranoia.
What we have been given in scarcity of late is obviously not directly from his hand or mouth, but through shadow handlers and managers. Most of the pictures that have been posted are from an earlier date and indicate an effort to give the impression that Mr. tRump is up and at his life--nothing to see here!
In the meantime Governor Awesome is very busy keeping himself in the spotlight--something Mr. tRump could not possibly tolerate if he were himself. WTF???

5. There certainly seems to be a lot of signs

and I find the complete silence by the media suspicious as well.

6. He made a fool of himself with the tariffs .

If only his cabinet freaks would read The Constitution. His anger matters not anymore. His lawyers and money and threats are getting old and weak.

I don't know how anyone can watch the media you mention. The commercials are too much. I know drugs could be a lot cheaper without all that ask your doctor nonsense they push.

7. Does TAPPER know about this?!

[durablend]

12. I'm sure he does

But Biden is old, so there's that.

9. There is also a "Trump is dead" thread on Bluesky...

that is very interesting and entertaining.

10. We all know he has health issues

But he is likely alive and will reappear as he is still shit posting on social media. It's not like we have a real president or cabinet so the shit show goes on and on

11. I don't think he is dying

at least not in that he was diagnosed with something that he will die from soon.

But things are changing for him. With Biden it was the usual things that happen as one gets older like slowing down .

But with Trump it's things like his skin and body also. And probably dementia. I was watching something where they said he gave a bunch of press conferences that one day becsuse he forgot he did son went back out to do it again.

Trump himself is probably noticing the physical changes and he isn't able to cver it up as he usually did .

On Top of all that Newsom is getting in his face and Newsom is what he wishes himself to be in terms of outward appearance but never was. He is also a white hetero xtian man so he can't throw out the bigoted attacks .
