That's just an assumption on your part. There's plenty of reasons why someone can choose to not do a press conference that don't involve being incapacitated.

Like I said- his speech could slowed/slurred or he could be nonverbal. That doesn't mean he's incapacitated. He could have some sort of Belle's palsy that paralyzed half his face.

For the record, I still totally believe he should resign. Regardless of what the truth here really is, he's clearly not doing the job he was elected to do. That being said, there's been no reason yet to believe he's not "technically" still capable to do the job.

Anything else is just people making up facts and getting stirred up into conspiracy theories.

Then he could meet with some republicans and do a carefully posed photo opp, and they can come out and explain whats going on
