'Where is POTUS?' Former Fox News host questions Trump's 'unusual' emergency response

Conservative radio host Todd Starnes wants to know where President Donald Trump has been since the nationwide flight grounding.

“The president has been unusually quiet about whatever caused the FAA to shutdown American airspace,” Starnes posted on X Saturday afternoon. “And what was Secretary Mullin referring to when he mention[ed] continuity of government during last night’s press conference? Where is POTUS?”

The post had been viewed nearly 90,000 times by Sunday.

Starnes, a former Fox News host who now hosts “The Starnes Radio Show,” describes himself on X as “Christian. Conservative.” He was referring to Markwayne Mullin’s comments about continuity of government. That phrase usually describes plans to keep the federal government running during a catastrophe.

Others on the right had noticed too.

“POTUS has been very quiet today. Somewhat concerning...,” one user wrote.

Starnes’s replies quickly filled with guesses about where Trump was.

“Hiding in his bunker,” one user wrote.

“Probably golfing,” another suggested.

“I think something’s physically wrong w him that they can no longer hide,” a third wrote in response.

Starnes isn’t the first Trump ally to notice. Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene blasted the president for not addressing the nation as travelers were stranded, noting that he posted on Truth Social that same day about a bill to bring film and television production back to the United States.

“While everyone was freaking out thinking we are under some sort of attack, Trump didn’t even bother to address the nation,” Greene wrote.
