I have finally found the most apt appellation for our sitting (dozing, catatonic, somnambulistic) President. Persistent vegetative state seemed too crude, imprecise, and insulting to those in such a condition.

I believe the President suffers from Unresponsive Wakefulness Syndrome.

He appears (remember how appearances deceive) to be conscious.

He utters (unintelligible) sounds.

He responds (inappropriately) to stimuli.

And his words and actions seem disconnected from reality.

His quotes seem to be fashioned by shuffling a card deck with words, tossing them randomly on a desk, then struggling to read them.

His SOCIAL MEDIA POSTINGS ARE BEYOND WORD SALAD RISING TO THE LEVEL OF AN ENTIRE SALAD BAR OF NON-SEQUITURS, NONSENSE, AND RANDOM FIRINGS OF THE SLEEPY SYNAPSES OF HIS BRAIN.

In a nutshell, the lights are on (blinking, but on) and no one is home.

Now, to save us all some time with the “yeah, but what about Biden” herd, President Biden may have been exhibiting similar symptoms toward the end of his Presidency but this President has exhibited these characteristics since the first moments he decided to run for office.

Biden may have lost a step or two, but at least he once had the dexterity to accomplish things.  Trump has been tripping over his own bone spurs since his first press conference.

Just imagine what’s in our future with this zombie in the White House. A sharper, more devastating tragic comedy than anything even Shakespeare could craft.
