Trump appears to have fallen asleep in court again. It happened several times just now. His eyes were closed for extended periods and his head dropped down twice.

That fkr ain't sleeping. I think it's his sick minded notion of showing confidence, if not outright contempt for the court, the judge, the jury, and the charges. For the whole process.

His WH staff no doubt saw this on a daily basis.

They are giving him the good stuff.

and be quiet. He was running the show and could pretty much do what he wanted. He is like a child with ADHD. Now we see what happens when he is forced to be still.

Plus, I think they have him medicated because they know he can't be controlled. And this is a man that many Americans believe should be running the country?

How many times has he done this by now?

I think it’s fair to ask if this is the kind of thing he’d do in the Oval Office? And did he do this while he was actually there a few years back?

It’s ALSO fair to ask: Do YOU Want a President who can’t even stay awake on the job? If he can’t even stay awake in a high-stress situation like his ass is in court as a defendant, how can you trust that he’ll stay awake when seated behind the Resolute Desk - or worse, in the Situation Room???

Let's see if the media runs with it like they did with the "Biden's cognizance" lies.

plus caffeinated Diet Coke. Staying awake seems to be what he does best as long as he has his drugs and freedom to do and say whatever he wants.

After what we've seen of Trump in the White House, the world would have been a safer place if he had fallen asleep. He is quieter and far less destructive when he's asleep. Apparently more stinky though.

Even after conviction I doubt that Trump will find himself in a cell. Fantasies are great if you can separate them from reality.

I knew that trump was a stinker, but apparently it is literally true.

Meanwhile, "Sleepy Joe" is sounding stupider and stupider with each passing nap.
