(CNN) If there has been a single, unbroken theme spanning President Donald Trump's 14 months in office, it's been his inability to stay quiet, even when silence would seem to serve him best. And yet, for more than two months, Trump has meticulously avoided personally addressing his alleged 2006 affair -- and his lawyer's role in covering it up before the 2016 election -- with adult film actress Stormy Daniels. On the advice of attorneys, Trump refrained -- for about a year -- from dropping special counsel Robert Mueller's name into his Twitter current. Which is all the more reason Trump, in keeping buttoned up about Daniels, is turning political pundits sideways. What does it mean?, we can't help but wonder -- then ask, and ask again, before gathering together at bar stools and in green rooms to debate with each other.
