1. The stroke could happen at

anytime. Don’t be surprised

[FHRRK]

30. Is elated a synonym for surprised?

Asking for a friend.

[EYESORE 9001]

38. I don't think so

I’m certainly not surprised, but I am elated

[getagrip_already]

2. also reported by the guardian... different reporter

so it has corroboration.

[FarPoint]

3. That's because many suspect he has early Alzheimer's

Up all night starting at Sundown...given the reference term, Sundowns Phase" of the illness...So, he nods off during day.

[brewens]

8. Probably Alzheimer's but I have liver failure in the pool. I'm not giving up yet.

[Fiendish Thingy]

14. He doesn't drink. Nt

[brewens]

18. I know, but he's a prime candidate for fatty liver disease. I have a buddy that might be in serious trouble

with that. You couldn't get him to eat anything anyone would consider healthy before, but he is now. He has to lose weight and they will see how he's doing. He may need a transplant.

[TwilightZone]

24. Don't need to drink to have liver failure.

https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/liver-disease/nafld-nash/definition-facts

[Traurigkeit]

36. BIGLY afraid what truths would come out if he got a drop of Wine into its system.

[Patterson]

49. He says he doesn't drink.

[Fiendish Thingy]

13. That's not what sundowning is. Nt

[brewens]

4. Get him to chug a couple Monsters! I had to do that to stay awake one day on jury duty. Of course, with

the shit he's usually on, a Monster might not even register.

[Kennah]

5. Did the judge order a lethal injection?

[KentuckyWoman]

63. I should be ashamed of laughing at that.

I am not ashamed

[Island Blue]

6. Probably heavily medicated

to prevent him from running his mouth as he usually does.

[Stardust Mirror]

11. my first thought, too

great minds dontcha know

[northoftheborder]

81. My first thought also.

[RockRaven]

16. Or his usual stimulants were withheld today to prevent the same.

[Docreed2003]

20. That was my thought

Bet someone held his Adderall to keep his mouth from flying all over the place

[Blue Idaho]

22. My exact thoughts...

[SergeStorms]

43. He can't very well....

snort rails of crushed Adderall in front of everyone in the courtroom.

This is how he keeps going all day and well into the early morning hours, day after day. Without his chemical buddies he'll crash, BIGLY!

[smb]

66. His Lawyers Might Have Kept Him Away From The Adderall

If it's a choice between Don Snoreleone falling asleep in court and going manic and incriminating himself again, that's probably the right choice.

[struggle4progress]

7. "Sleepy Don"

[magicarpet]

59. trDUMP is conserving his energies,... not sleeping in court.....

He has a plan.

Make it look like he is taking a nap. Then spring up out of his chair. Pull a three foot long machete out of his pants leg. Hop up on the bench and cut the judges head off,.. and hold it up infront of the jury and babble on about how nasty the judge, and his daughter too, has been to trDUMP.

The court bailiff will jump up out of his seat, with tears in his eyes, and say,...

"President Trump I voted for you two times and I intend to vote for you again. Now please wipe the judges blood off your hands and return to the defendant's table so the trial can resume and you then found innocent.

Because the judge has met his demise due to your actions the court is trying to contact Judge Cannon to see if she can come up here to rule on this case in your favor as she has done thus far and staunchly protected your best interests on the Florida case.

Who ever said justice is blind is an absolute idiot, the bailiff said. Justice is responsive to those who have tons of money and is eager to avail themselves if you are willing to make a backroom deal where piles of money changes hand."

Order was returned to the court - and the trDUMP trial promptly resumed.

○□○□•□

trDUMP smiled at the court bailiff and returned to his seat at the defendant's table.

trDUMP thought- well that stunt should capture a lot of media attention on the nightly news cycle and into the next few days. Good news and bad news are equally beneficial. Because Donald John Trump has embraced and normalized Idiocracy - American Democracy is now equivalent to a scumbag Reality TV show.

[smb]

67. Don Snoreleone's Dream! nt

[pandr32]

9. Hopefully his false teeth slide out.

[Attilatheblond]

26. And land in his lap, biting his lil 'shroom

[AnotherMother4Peace]

10. The note said "wake up dumbass - it's a bad look". He looks like shit on Day One & he needs to be there every day!

[rubbersole]

41. By Thursday he'll need a cot.

This is gonna be fun!🍿

[scipan]

12. He had bags under his eyes this morning

I don't think he got much sleep last night.

Is it hitting you, slobfather?

[honest.abe]

15. I wonder what the judge would do if the idiot falls asleep completely.

Would that be contempt of court?

[vanlassie]

72. Cattle Prod!

[blogslug]

17. I hope his insomnia is torture

I know they say he only sleeps 4 hours a night but I hope, these days, it's ZERO hours a night.

[Traurigkeit]

34. "4 hours a night", good lie to cover napping 8 hours each day

[Vinca]

19. Maybe he's trying out his best Vinnie the Chin impression. He needs a bathrobe to pull it off.

[Johnny2X2X]

21. I bet something happens

I bet if he is forced to sit there day after day, he's going to have some health crisis that will lead to him being taken out of court on a stretcher or in a wheelchair. He literally can't sit still for that long.

[bdamomma]

73. He literally

can't keep his mouth shut either.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

23. #SleepyDon is now trending

74. if he starts

drooling he will be really in trouble, just the thought makes me

[Johnny2X2X]

25. Can you imagine if this were Biden

Literally can't stay awake for a court appearance.

[MustLoveBeagles]

28. There'd be lots of concern trolling by the media

[Mr.Bill]

27. Hey, cut the guy some slack.

You'd be falling asleep, too, if you had to get up at three in the morning to do your hair.

[usedtobedemgurl]

29. Bigly low energy Don.

Who has the low energy now?!?!

[calimary]

32. At this point, just let me know when he's finally GONE.

Gone for GOOD.

I keep trying to imagine a world without trump. Where he's GONE. And as they say in aviation terms, "no longer a factor." At this point, I'm so fed up with ALL THINGS trump that I just want it OVER. And HIM OVER.

[usedtobedemgurl]

35. I am so over him, too,,,,

But at this point it is like a magat staring into the eclipse, I cannot se to look away. I am waiting to see if our justice system has any integrity left.

[CrispyQ]

65. This would have torched anyone else.

[usedtobedemgurl]

69. It galls me how they treat him.

If he had been a greatly respected person, maybe I could see them being cautious but he threatens our country. He should be treated with the mistrust he earned and deserves.

[bdamomma]

75. What a pig he is

those are government secrets tossed all over the place. This is what he thinks about the security of the United States and us.

Fuck him and his so called privileges/entitlements'.

[lpbk2713]

31. His lawyers have their game face on.

Trump is in a state of sleep deprived stupor.





The officer in the white shirt is saying "Can we move this along? I have two hours until tee time."

[NonPC]

39. Not A Game Face On The Attorneys -- It's Constipation

Constipation is a side effect of drinking too much alcohol and/or doing too many opioids.

[CrispyQ]

70. I hope the officers are remembering how Maga treated the capitol police on 1/6/21.

[CTyankee]

76. It's all pretense to show his utter contempt for what is happening to him.

This is just a big, stupid act of his. He's not asleep.

[Traurigkeit]

33. TSF is an old fella, needs its naps all day long. No energy, not much going on in the mind.

[Justice matters.]

42. Must be from posting 'Lies Social' trolling idiocies in the middle of the night.

Over and over and over again.

[calimary]

44. Welcome to DU, Traurigkeit!

Well, this is serious shit. I would think ANYONE on the defense side wound want to be up and wide awake ALL DAY LONG. Chugging coffee or something to stay awake, or having somebody sitting behind you, close enough to kick your chair to keep your eyes open.

[bdamomma]

77. Welcome Traurigkeit

[captain queeg]

37. I hope every minute in court is painful for him

A few weeks of him having to appear every day will push his feeble mind to the edge. He sure looks like shit already.

[Poiuyt]

40. Now Trump can honestly say that he is not woke

[twodogsbarking]

45. Stock closed at 26.68 down 18+%

[calimary]

52. Still too high.

[meow2u3]

46. All this coming from the same guy who called President Biden "Sleepy Joe"

Whodathunk that that name turned out to be sheer projection? Sleepy Don is more like it.

[Rebl2]

47. Slam down

some books. Wake him up.

[tinrobot]

48. I guess "Sleepy Joe" is yet another case of projection.

I bet he falls asleep a lot.

They always accuse others of doing the things they're already doing.

[louis-t]

50. Let's have your bets on what his excuse will be.

You know he can't let it stand. "I wasn't falling asleep, I was only....." Go! The notes probably said "Wake up, your highness. This is important shit."

[doc03]

51. Up all night posting on Truth Social. nt

[FakeNoose]

53. He used to do his texting with Pootie at 3 or 4 in the morning

That's conveniently about noontime in Moscow.

[bdamomma]

79. "He used to"

he probably still does communicate with Putin.

[Hassler]

54. Sleepy Don. SAD!

[Cha]

55. "If trump is Too Old and Weak to Stay Awake At his Own Criminal Trial...

Link to tweet

[Disaffected]

56. Sleepy, Grumpy and Dopey.

Why, we have here a good casting start for a Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs sequel!

[Doodley]

57. How will he survive, day after day, week after week? This could take a deadly toll. I'm concerned he will get ill.

Okay, I lied about the being concerned bit.

[Javaman]

58. Z's heard round the world? Lol nt

[mwb970]

60. Sleepy, Crooked Don can't stay awake for his own downfall?

[Saoirse9]

61. I bet they have him tranquilized

to keep the outbursts to a minimum.

[soldierant]

62. I'm glad he's falling asleep - tht has to be the only way to keep him quiet.

But i doubt his lawyers are smart enough to think of tranquilizers - and I doubt if anyone else could get away with effectively giving them to him.

[smb]

68. Or Took Away His Adderall nt

Also, being up all night shit-posting on his off-brand Twitter clone surely didn't help his energy level.

[Straw Man]

64. I think he requires constant stimulation, ...

... which he normally gets from TV, social media, and a chorus of sycophants. Without it, he can't stay attentive for very long. I'm not sure whether it's due to an actual attention deficit disorder and just to being an entitled asshole.

[Marthe48]

71. Maybe he's showing contempt for the proceedings

He can't make gestures, or mutter, or roll his eyes. But he can pretend to fall asleep and then jerk awake. Since i don't believe that anything traitor does is uncalculated, I can't help thinking that he is faking this too.

[LeonidPlanck]

78. Love Haberman!

I have a thing for bespectacled ladies and a bigger thing for smart, demure bespectacled ladies. Plus I love how she’s seemingly singled him out to tighten the bolts on. It’s almost like a professional vendetta of hers that I can support.

Re: asshat falling asleep in court shows willful disrespect for the court. If the judge isn’t banging fists or gavels to keep him uncomfortably attentive we might be in trouble. Or, fuck it, let the geezer sleep through it.

80. The internet is having fun with TFG's falling asleep

[Blue Owl]

82. C'mon Donny, go for the Big Sleep

The biggest sleep... the most vicious and horrible sleep, yet beautiful in so many different ways.....
