Sleepy Donald: Trump Falls Asleep in the Middle of a White House Meeting

Donald Trump (79) fell asleep in the middle of a White House meeting. His eyelids closed while he was speaking about a deal with pharmaceutical company Regeneron. He woke up. Fell asleep again. The cameras caught it all.

The irony is better than any commentary: the same man who spent years calling Joe Biden "Sleepy Joe" is now napping at work himself. Last month he dozed off while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was talking about the Iran conflict. A few days before that - again, at a press conference about a security project in Memphis.

The White House defends him: "The president is listening attentively" or "just resting his eyes." Trump himself claims that briefly closing his eyes is "very relaxing" and "helps him concentrate."

At 79 years old, the man who decides on military strikes in Hormuz, on nuclear threats in Europe, and on the fate of millions - cannot stay awake in a meeting. Is this just a funny anecdote, or a question that someone needs to seriously answer?
