His ‘Sleepy Joe’ nickname for his rival seems to have come full circle, with social media users now calling Mr Trump ‘Sleepy Don’
While the rest of the world can’t peel their eyes away as Donald Trump’s historic criminal trial gets under way in New York, the former president himself appears to be far less enthralled by the proceedings.
Jury selection got under way on Monday in the first-ever criminal trial of a sitting or former president, as he faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in a bid to cover up hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
But, according to some courtroom reporters, Mr Trump appeared to struggle to keep his eyes open – and at one point may have even fallen asleep.
“Trump appears to be sleeping. His head keeps dropping down and his mouth goes slack,” *New York Times *reporter Maggie Haberman reported.
The observation quickly inspired a new nickname for the 77-year-old former president: “Sleepy Don.”
Oh yeah, isn’t there an Adderall shortage right now?
The dude probably just isn’t cranked up on his normal level of amphetamines.
I bet he keeps falling asleep, gets even fatter, and is even less capable of following his own thoughts as the Adderall drought continues.
What a great time for him to be on criminal trial…
This is pretty funny but realistically, even with the shortage, he is still getting his. I myself have to take it and I’ve had zero issues getting it. He is certainly on the top of the list of those receiving it.
Most-damaging-traitor-in-American-history Don.
Using one of the insults Trump commonly hurled at others: he’s a very low-energy criminal defendant.
“Don’t you think he looks…tired?”
This whole sequence in the show is just fascinatingly English. That sentence wouldn’t do anything in any other country but it’s a death sentence in British politics, especially for a woman. The entire country is just a bunch of Mean Girls.
