Even I had jet lag when coming back from England(2015) and Australia(2018). But I was younger then than I am now. It took me close to a month to get back on track from a 17 1/2 hour time difference from Sydney to Minneapolis, as well as crossing the International Date Line. TACO Don is 6 weeks into his 80th year and not in the best of health. Though he was doing this way before he ran again.Link to tweet

The president had a case of heavy eyelids during a White House event.

(29,808 posts)about his inflated accomplishments or ranting about the myriad of perceived injustices he has suffered. Any other time, his indifference is all too obvious.

(20,982 posts)Months before my husband died, he would fall asleep within 30 minutes from waking up in the mornings, hardly touching his coffee. I was not aware of just how serious his congested heart failure was. Even at Doctor appointments, he would doze off. He slept about 3/4 of the day due to having no energy.
We are witnessing the decrease in stamina of TACO Don on a daily basis. He and his WH Doctors are LYING to the American people. I beg to guess that his upcoming trip to England to meet with King Charles will be called off in September with the excuse of "SCHEDULING CONFLICTS" rather than actual health and age issues.

(35,176 posts)I have narcolepsy and have taken Ritalin for somewhere around 40 years. I look half dead if I don't take it on time. It is like feeling dead AND looking like dead go together. Do it right and all is well and you do not smash your car into anyone else.
Problem then is he might think and I doubt any of us think he would direct those thoughts to helping.

(3,463 posts)Trump has no interest in what Oz is talking about. The man literally doesn't care about anything except blowing his own horn.
He's bored and there aren't any shiny objects to look at. Sad

Nor do I mean any offense of those here who are actually suffer from this.
