Trump ‘Volcanically Angry’ About Sketch Artist and Articles About Him Falling Sleep

According to Rolling Stone reporter Asawin Suebsaeng, Trump is convinced the courtroom sketch artist is "out to get him," complaining that some of the images the artist produced "were likely drawn to make fun of him."

"One such sketch captured Trump snoozing, with his eyes closed and head tilted," Suebsaeng wrote.

Suebsaeng also reports that Trump is "volcanically angry" about the various reports that emerged in which he was apparently sleeping intermittently during court proceedings. The New York Times' Maggie Haberman — who provided much of the paper's coverage of Trump during his time in the White House — reported earlier this week that he couldn't stay awake for the entirety of jury selection several days this week.

"He appeared to be asleep,” Haberman told CNN. “He didn’t pay attention to a note his lawyer passed him. His jaw kept falling on his chest, and his mouth kept going slack.”

Rolling Stone reported that, according to one unnamed source, the former president's anger is "maxed out, even for him." Suebsaeng wrote that Haberman's report provoked "an irate denial from Trump’s campaign and reigniting the former president’s antipathy towards Haberman."

"The resentment lasted the entire week, the sources add. It did not help Trump’s denial that he continued to doze off while seated in the Manhattan courtroom throughout the rest of the week," Suebsaeng wrote. "Despite his dozing being widely reported, the former president has laid much of the blame for the detail going viral at Haberman’s feet. He was even observed glaring at her on Monday as he exited the courtroom following her CNN appearance."

1. The angrier he gets, the more he is going to act out.

This does not bode well for defendant Trump.

[malaise]

4. Works for me

😀😀

[Irish_Dem]

6. Trump is easily triggered.

He is a narcissist and pointing out his many faults will enrage him.

Yep works for me too.

I just hope he doesn't increase his violence level.

[LuvLoogie]

15. Trump is a coward. He'll ask others to do his violence.

One of his bigoted sickophants will be only too happy.

[Irish_Dem]

59. This is what I mean. Making others do violence.

The angrier Trump gets, the more likely he is to do this.

[kiri]

89. Trump is not a gun nut

One good thing (!) about Trump is that he is not a gun nut. He does not own guns. If he did the last 400 school shootings would be like a Sunday school picnic.

The rage and violence of the magas is another thing.

[Farmer-Rick]

81. Honestly, I think he's fine with committing violence

If he's pretty sure the other person is weaker and he can get away with it.

He's not likely to attack a grown man his own size but a smaller man, boy, child, woman are likely targets if no one is looking.

[ShazzieB]

99. I agree.

He's definitely capable of violence under the right conditions. After all, we already know about his acts of sexual violence toward women!

[Irish_Dem]

103. His rapes were acts of violence.

EJ Carroll is only one of his victims, there are more.

[MiHale]

21. Outside of throwing ketchup at a wall...

Which we only heard about, what acts of violence has he done? All the rest is just screaming.

[GreenWave]

30. Maybe howling with laughter as his murderous thugs stormed the Capital.

He made sure he had his puppets in position to slow walk the defense.

[Irish_Dem]

60. His rapes for one example

Those are acts of violence.

And he manipulates others to do his violent bidding.

Trump is dangerous.

[MiHale]

98. I believe he's dangerous...I was too narrow in my thoughts

Definitely encouraging others to do your dirty deeds is violence.

[Irish_Dem]

102. The violence we know about is the tip of the iceberg.

[mahina]

90. Structural violence, systemic, violence, Leaving 1 million of us to

Die by his inaction, Where we had 25% of the world‘s deaths, but 2% of the world’s population.

Initiating the order from Christopher Miller’s office prohibiting response by the National Guard to the January 6 coup Would be an example of institutional violence of a very lethal sort.

[MiHale]

101. For some reason my brain got stuck on him ...

committing physical violent acts himself I foolishly didn’t expand my thoughts. of course you’re right.
My bad.

[Irish_Dem]

104. Yes Trump is quite dangerous.

[TSExile]

118. Exactly.

He is a RAPIST and a MURDERER. Period!!!

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

97. The level of Trump's I want to see increase

is his blood pressure. Hopefully, all of this anger will make his BP erupt like Old Faithful.

[leftieNanner]

127. He especially hates it

When people LAUGH at him!

So let's!

[captain queeg]

128. If there was ever a debate or something that included both of them

I’d love to see Joe show up with a bowl of mashed potatoes and a bottle of catsup and just leave them on the podium in front of him.

[leftieNanner]

129. 🤣 Excellent idea! Nt

[Auggie]

7. And, perhaps, the higher his hypertension

[Irish_Dem]

61. "Volcanic anger" is not a good thing for an elderly hypertensive male.

He could have a stroke.

[HubertHeaver]

76. Yes!!

But when?

[Irish_Dem]

88. At this point, sooner rather than later?

[Mickju]

94. So much the better.

[paleotn]

74. Stroke, baby!

Do us all a favor.

[TheBlackAdder]

82. ...

[Botany]

8. The angrier he gets, the more likely he is going to stroke out as he sits in his own shit. Just saying.

[lostnfound]

10. That would be tragic

No cameras in courtroom.

[Probatim]

31. Imagine the endless loop of "and here's where the aneurysm popped - you can see his facial reaction then the slump"

Alas, without cameras, we'll never know.

[Botany]

100. Maybe it could happen durning one of his pre-trial or post-trial "talks."

The mother fucker is in a large way responsible for the 14 million C-19 deaths worldwide. Real #s. 8 million diagnosed
deaths, ? #s died w/out being diagnosed, and @ least 1/2 to 1 million dead because they couldn’t get medical care because
it was tied up treating C-19 cases. Trump is a murderer on a massive scale. No need for a global pandemic task force,
the epidemiologist on the ground in Wahaun, the stock piles of PPE we had that Kushner sent to China (he and Donny
owed them money), a COVID test kit that worked, or just the truth.

[lindysalsagal]

47. Would be tragic

He'd never hear his guilty verdict in all the rest of the trials....

[Hugin]

13. Then just tell me when he pops a blood vessel and...

I’ll think, “Oh, he must’ve been really angry.” I demand a visible confirmation of the anger at this point.

[OverBurn]

66. Let him go to jail for at least 6 months, then at his release press conference stroke out. Dream scenario.

[NNadir]

23. Works for me too.

[Bird Lady]

77. The angrier he gets

The closer he comes to a stroke, which can't happen soon enough for me.

[Hugin]

2. I am so tired of reading about how angry Trump is...

He’s always fricking angry.

[Orrex]

54. Yep. It's like endless stories about the GOP being "in its death throes"

The GOP has been on its last legs since before I became politically aware, and Trump has been angry for about as long.

[CrispyQ]

68. His base, too. They're addicted to it.

It's why Truth Social has so few members; there aren't any libs to argue with.

[Boomerproud]

105. TS is rheir echo chamber. It's where they live.

[Farmer-Rick]

86. It's kind of what narcissist do

They get angry all the time. It's their go to emotional state because they can't feel love, sympathy, compassion, kindness or pity. It's always hate.

[EarnestPutz]

121. "Trump rages...." should be one word. You're absolutely right.

[gab13by13]

3. Need to triple the Adderall dosage,

[Botany]

11. But that will bring on more diaper loads from "The Donald."

[speak easy]

14. "The Donald" is what's in his diapers.

[magicarpet]

33. Cocaine is kinda a happy drug,...

... you would think Donnie Jr. would avail his stash to help keep his dad cheerful and alert.

It would be a hoot to see djt on hallucinogens or LSD. He would act out in ways unimaginable.

[NanaCat]

120. It isn't a happy drug.

It's a stimulant and enhancer drug. If you're happy when you take it, it makes you happier. If you're nervous and paranoid when you take it, it makes you more nervous and paranoid. If you're angry, it makes you angrier.

At a certain point of coke usage, paranoia and volcanic anger become the addict's default setting. Violence is never far behind then.

Cocaine destroyed a man I once loved. It was reaching the perpetual paranoid and angry stage that made me cut my losses and move on. Watching that downward spiral forming and fomenting, up close and personal, and havingno power at all to change it, was as horrifying to behold as it was to endure.

[dem4decades]

5. If he's not pissed off about the Trump Farts stories, they're hiding them from him.

Does anyone remember how they got rid of Frank Burns in the movie Mash?

Time to drive Donny off the rails.

[Buns_of_Fire]

9. "Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."

Don't worry about it, Incredible Bulk. I don't like you anyway.

[malaise]

27. He's going to discover that fewer and fewer people.

Give a flying fuck
Corrupt politicians including leaders have been tried and sentenced in more than a few countries.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

48. When is he ever not angry?

When he's snuggling with Vlad, I suppose.

[COL Mustard]

85. Incredible Bulk....

I love it!!! But you owe me a new keyboard!!!!!

[RobertDevereaux]

12. Until you spew hot lava all over your wretched excuse for a life...

It ain’t volcanic enough!

[maxrandb]

16. He should just be thankful the sketches aren't "Scratch & Sniff"

[onecaliberal]

17. Not half as angry as the women in this country are.

I know everyone wants to discount that. The fucking robed fascist are literally debating if pregnant women should be saved if they develop pregnancy complications.

[et tu]

18. and the trial starts monday-

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, blast off

[fishwax]

19. I wonder how much the sketch artist could make licensing these sketches for t-shirts, etc.

At any rate, I'm not unhappy to know that he's not happy.

[Buns_of_Fire]

20. He'd demand a cut of the profits, of course. nt

[KelleyKramer]

22. He is the most insecure person on the planet

What an insecure spoiled little baby.

And the trial hasn't even started yet. For weeks he will have to sit there all day and keep his mouth shut. That's going to drive him completely crazy.

I'm stocking up on popcorn!

[The Unmitigated Gall]

24. Excellent. I'm liking these blood pressure spikes. nt

[SWBTATTReg]

25. The more angier he gets, the more proof that he is, indeed, guilty of the accusation that he is getting

so angry about.

Like some other DUers, I wonder when in the hell will he stroke out? As someone pointed out too, he is always angry.

Why in the hell does anyone want such a prick for a leader? (Pardon the language, but I am getting sick and tired of this moron).

[IbogaProject]

45. Early September is better

I want his name on the ballots b4 he gets incapacitated. And I want him to survive to see Biden whoop him by record margins and see all the big parties again just like 2020.

[PatSeg]

56. Yes, I totally agree

My first reaction to the headline of this post was, "Don't you dare stroke out yet!" We need to see justice done and a landslide election for Biden and Democrats.

[IbogaProject]

62. And the karma of disability

I've hated him since the 1980's but that mocking of the disabled reporter focused my I'll will on wanting him to have a severe speech impediment. Both to neuter him but to leave him trapped as is slips into irrevelance.

[PatSeg]

65. Yes, that would be divine justice

I don't wish him to die as some do, because I feel he has a huge karmic debt to pay and I would like to be witness to that. As I often say, may he get everything he deserves. I usually say 100 fold, but "everything he deserves" would be more than enough.

He is truly a horrible human being.

[CrispyQ]

71. I thought his campaign was toast after the mocking,

but when he survived, I knew when the Access Hollywood tape came out that he'd survive that, too.

[riversedge]

126. +++

[tanyev]

26. Good.

[cstanleytech]

28. Not meant as a joke but given his age could the mouth dropping might be a sign of a glioblastoma brain tumor?

After all that risk of getting that one increases with age and it might explain his problems speaking for the last few years since it's apparently a slow growing cancer.
If that is what it is then we really don't need a person that could potentially order the launch of nuclear weapons because he's just pissed off.

[RandomNumbers]

36. Your last line, except I don't think it matters if it is a brain tumor.

TSF has shown propensity to do stupid shit often enough, he should be no where near the nuclear codes.

Of course, we knew that here in 2016. Well, most of us did, anyway.

[cstanleytech]

73. Oh, of course but I'm just wondering if the mouth dropping and his word salad is a symptom of one.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

29. The fact that TFG is upset makes me smile

39. Ewwww. He has that "I'm currently shitting" face that babies make.

[Tetrachloride]

32. glare baby glare

[twodogsbarking]

34. Anyone want Trump to babysit their children? Anyone?

I didn't think so. Make him President again you stupid ........

[Tanuki]

35. My Pillow, courtroom edition

[Sky Jewels]

37. The artist should add some realistic embellishments to really piss him off.

Something like this:

[Orrex]

38. Can't wait for the courtroom sketch of him stroking out.

[wnylib]

44. MAGAs would, of course, blame the justice system

if he strokes out.

[Orrex]

52. Yes, it's always sad when a healthy, active man is struck down by jurisprudence!

[lastlib]

40. "Volcanically angry".....but I don't think...

that's lava he's spewing. It may be almost as hot, and have some of the same sulfuric odor to it, but *some people are saying* it's a different kind of gas......And not all of it is coming out of his mouth.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

41. Boo frickity hoo

[agingdem]

42. Trump doesn't get it..his fear factor is gone...

only his stink remains...

[NoMoreRepugs]

43. IF JoeB is pictured nodding off at an event I 100% guarantee the MSM will go 24/7 with "Should the 25th

Amendment be activated?”

[ananda]

46. Will all that orange lava explode from his head?

I can picture it now.

[lindysalsagal]

49. I'm looking forward to the GQP argument: "He's too sick to be in court, but not too sick to be potus."

Seriously, if they use his health to delay the trials, then they can't run him for potus, either.

[4lbs]

50. Maybe the sketch artist ran out of green, or didn't have enough of it, so it would be hard to

draw that POOOFT and Dawnie's lawyers gagging.

I bet the artist knew that Dawnie would be there, so remembered to stock up on plenty of orange.

[cutroot]

51. His "Flock". Will say that he is deep in prayer

Who doesn’t fart in church?

[rurallib]

53. volcanic from which end, I wonder?

either can be lethal

[calimary]

124. GOOD one!

[brewens]

55. No mention of us mocking his pyroclastic ass flows? LOL I'd love for the stench to be bad enough that the judge has to

take action! Total humiliation! LOL

[Kaleva]

67. He's proud of that.

[jmowreader]

57. I swear...

You know what’s going to have to happen is deputizing the linebackers for the New York Giants as “special bailiffs” to be in court on the day his sentence is read. Trump will go down in history as not only the first former president to go to prison for his crimes, but the first to be tackled by NFL defenders to keep him from overturning tables and throwing furniture.

[lpbk2713]

58. Ah but he doesn't deny that he's breaking wind.

And polluting the air in the courtroom and making people sick.

What a swine.

[patphil]

63. Sleepy Don will have a hard time making the "Sleep Joe" label stick after this.

You could say that" Sleep Don" in a courtroom easily Trumps "Sleep Joe" anywhere, anytime, anyplace.

[captain queeg]

64. The smirking chimp? I didn't know they were still around.

For those who may not remember, Bush II was often portrayed as a chimp (before 9/11 rewrote his image). Still a chimp but far better than the trumpanzee we got later.

[MustLoveBeagles]

125. Talk about a blast from the past

[Blue Owl]

69. Tough luck, tubby

You're on display for everyone to see -- just how you like it Donny!

[Harker]

70. Wait til the sketches of his lawyers being overwhelmed by his farts.

That ought to be good for a tweet or two.

[GiqueCee]

72. Trumpleforeskin is...

... a petulant child unaccustomed to anyone being legally empowered to impose restraint on his malicious behavior. Escalating his boorish antics is the only response that gives him any satisfaction, even though he's digging his own grave deeper and deeper. Metaphorically speaking, of course. Heh, heh, heh. Would that it were literal.

[DemocraticPatriot]

75. Poor poopy-diaper Don...

[Captain Zero]

78. Fuck him if he can't take a joke

Glad he thinks we are trying to be funny. It's not funny, it's part of a personality type that should never be near the white house again.

[Doodley]

79. "Volcanic" is the correct word (for his farting and sharting).

[PatrickforB]

80. I believe absolutely that Donald Trump is too dangerous to our very social, economic and moral fabric to be anywhere but

in prison, it does provoke some compassion watching his pride being assailed on all sides as his world folds in around him.

I had a counseling professor in grad school who told us that people who have personality disorders (and I believe it is well established that Trump has narcissistic personality disorder) have what she called 'bent frames.' They cannot be cured, but there is some hope through medication.

Trump is on a long and painful slide to obscurity and eventual imprisonment, if he lives that long due to poor health. No adderoll, no one to clean up after accidents, no real significance except the basic significance we all share as human beings.

He has made poor choices his whole life, and my hope is that he may learn the spirit lessons he needs to learn from the suffering he is enduring now and will endure throughout the rest of his life. The Buddhists tell us that patiently enduring such suffering with the question, "What can I learn from this?" is the way we can incinerate our defilements. That is such a nice term.

The problem is he is so utterly defiled he may take many lifetimes to cleanse the stains on his spirit.

But, it will be good for the rest of us when he is finally convicted and jailed, because compassion aside, the man in very, very dangerous.

[Elessar Zappa]

91. You're a very good person.

It’s probably a personal failing of mine that I can’t muster much compassion for him or his soul. Generally, I’m pretty forgiving but this guy’s just so awful.

[hay rick]

83. My heart bleeds for him.

[Kid Berwyn]

84. So. What's it gonna take?

It all stops when you admit your guilt, Donnie.

[appleannie1]

87. Wait till he sees the sketch of Stinky le Pew and the lawyer with cotton stuffed in his nose.

[musclecar6]

92. John Kelly

Described him perfectly. A very very evil person. Hopefully during this trial, people get to see that more and more of who he is and as we all know this is the last person that should ever be elected dog catcher, let alone anything higher than that.

[LW1977]

93. Sketch artist is being too kind,..

He forgot the horns and a tail with an arrow at the end.

[edhopper]

107. She

Jane Rosenberg

[Bucky]

109. I feel like her name shouldn't be publicized

Now that Trump has targeted her, I assume a mean tweet and a barrage of death threats are soon going to follow

[Brother Buzz]

95. Should we be sending more 'Orange' to the sketch artist?

[riversedge]

122. Trump seems to be a more Bronze color makeup lately

[Brother Buzz]

123. One released juror described the marmalade shartcannon's color as yellow

[Ping Tung]

96. The photos make him look worse than the sketchers.

Seriously. He looks to me like an old man who appears to be haggard, sick, and on the edge of collapse.

Note: I'm 80 and appear old and haggard until I have a shower and consume my first vat of coffee.

[chouchou]

106. He'll be fresh and sharp and bright bushy-tail next week.

Also, I'm Taylor Swift.

[GoodRaisin]

108. I'm so glad he's angry.

He might stroke out.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

110. he's angry about everything all the time

[BaronChocula]

111. The Adderall Conundrum

He doesn't take the Adderall, he falls asleep.
He takes the Adderall, he makes punishable outbursts.

[mwb970]

112. I want him to be angry all the time.

He did it to us. Now it's his turn. Rage impotently, Crooked Donald. We're loving it!

[prodigitalson]

113. sucks for him I guess

[Martin Eden]

114. Anger and stress are not good for one's health

May he live long enough to lose the election.

[Emile]

115. Artist must not of had Trump's face tilted down

like his mug shot. Trump thinks with his head tilted downwards is his way of showing a signal of dominance over the libs.

[niyad]

116. Not "volcanically" enough, since he hasn't burst a blood vessel yet.

May it be so. May it be soon.

[area51]

117. Just stroke out, #DementiaDonnie. n/t
