30. Shrub's current "masters" are the ones feeding him and changing his diapers.

I don’t believe shrub is capable of thinking for himself and may well have fell off the wagon or is suffering from dementia after years of being an alcoholic.

His family is probably protecting him from embarrassing himself which is why he is rarely seen in public. They wouldn’t want to be accused of elder abuse. Remember, shrub is the same age as rump.
