trips to the dentists were for pre-op dental work that is required when someone is to undergo certain surgeries, like heart surgery. Did the House and Senate "suddenly" recess to give cover for an upcoming surgery and recuperation planned for F45? If so, F45 would have to turn over all presidential powers to Vance during this period, but will he do so????

IMO we should be watching F45.
