That's my point! This guy is barely functional and he is
somehowapparently voting in the Senate, and now running for reelection. It is a farce! And if he were a Republican (given that the balance of the Senate hinges on him) we would have had nightly news stories on how he is NOT progressing, and the pressure would quickly mount for him to resign.
why haven't any Republicans said anything - at all - to step up the pressure for this guy to resign? This could be done without malice.

Has he actually been VOTING? I thought you had to be present to vote in the Senate. Surely if he had been present there would be a lot more talk about his physical and/or mental condition. . . . no way the gossip could have been squelched if his condition is as bad as it sounds.
I agree that if he were a Republican the media would have kept up a steady drumbeat for resignation. It's astounding to me that the media has been able to keep it under wraps as much as they have. These congenital blood vessel conditions that fail catastrophically do not generally end well.
