Maybe

 Wow. The circus of absurdities has become quite subdued lately, hasn't it, following the capital insurrection and the silencing of Trump, imposed both by internet platforms and apparently elected by Trump himself. Despite his removal from Twitter, Facebook, and so on, Trump is quite able to speak if he wishes through his own White House press corps. But it has apparently dawned on him, or on influential aides and lawyers, that he simply cannot restrain himself from digging his own hole deeper, and so at last he has shut up. Hallelujah! Who else out there is looking forward to boring news hours? I know I am. It is as if we had watched over this catastrophe all along in the way that one watches over a sick loved one, hoping every day for signs of improvement, despairing when the condition became more critical yet. Perhaps at last the fever has broken once for all, and we can sit back, take a collective breath of relief. Maybe, just maybe.

I can't wait for President Biden not to tweet ever. A president that doesn't tweet is my kind of president. Call me old school.
