Looking at the footage of Trump standing like his batteries just died at the "health" press conference, & I think I see the problem.
Miller was holding the legs of the guy who fainted, & apparently dropped Trump's remote control.
The electronics are more miniaturized these days, of course.

Back in March I had contact cards printed to give people at protests & other locations. Originally the image was going to be a cat sitting on books, but I was in more a badger mood than a cat, and @tkingfisher.com was kind enough to give me permission to use her drawing. 1/

For future reference, you might consider installing one of these in open windows to keep them from going through the regular screens. They're inexpensive

Murphy is the first cat I've ever lived with who has no interest in human food. It still feels weird to eat without cat fussing.
