President Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 memorial ceremony.

The president dozed off at multiple points during the event Friday, slumped over in his chair with his eyes closed and his head hanging down while everyone else onstage—Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Melania Trump, and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice—was clearly awake.

    From what I remember Biden used to fall asleep cause he’s mentally challenged, Trump falls asleep cause he actually tries working whatever

      We really are fucked when you’re getting downvoted because people don’t realize you’re being sarcastic. Yeesh.

          I didn’t look at the post history of this person and if they are not being sarcastic they’re a moron so I figured I would make an assumption it was a joke and not another r word take.

          That’s just the world I want to live in though I guess. Like if someone unironically thinks Trump is doing a good job or Biden was more “sleepy” they’re pants on head dumb.

      Biden was old af, and was definitely on the decline during the period before he dropped out of the election, but I don’t ever recall him falling asleep at official events.

      Have a link or something to refresh my memory since it’s so fresh in yours?

      Gonna just let the “mentally challenged” thing slide I guess… I know it can be difficult not to project sometimes. You did your best.

      Care to explain how this is supposed to work? He’s falling asleep because he’s trying to work?

      Did I just waste time typing up a reply to an LLM? Because goddamn this isn’t even a coherent thought.

    They name the names like it’s admirable the rest stayed awake, but I think they are all just bracing for the inevitable cropdusting. Dude likes to shit while he sleeps, going by the videos I’ve seen. Note how there is no one behind him, and his wife is seated far enough away to allow plenty of airflow between them.

    Also note the unevenness in his face: the right side of his mouth (his right; to the left in the pic, last one in the article) is markedly different from the left, even when he appears to be facing the camera directly, and that entire side of his face is somewhat slumped compared to the other. Seems to be getting worse these days.

    Reminder that like 90% of his election campaign was telling everyone that sleepy people are unfit for office.

      It wasn’t just him. Every media outlet hounded Biden about his age, and now they ignore Trump’s decline. It’s my best evidence of the media being captured and controlled by this authoritarian oligarchy.

      Conservatives love hypocrisy because it’s a demonstration of the social hierarchy they’re all obsessed with (it’s not a problem when he does it because he is Donald Trump)

        Calling in to a radio station on the day of the attacks to brag that he now had the tallest building in NY.

          Oooh I had heard of this, but didn’t realize it was on 9/11. Not that it makes it ok, but I thought it was much later. He’s such a shit human.
