His ‘Sleepy Joe’ nickname for his rival seems to have come full circle, with social media users now calling Mr Trump ‘Sleepy Don’
While the rest of the world can’t peel their eyes away as Donald Trump’s historic criminal trial gets under way in New York, the former president himself appears to be far less enthralled by the proceedings.
Jury selection got under way on Monday in the first-ever criminal trial of a sitting or former president, as he faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in a bid to cover up hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
But, according to some courtroom reporters, Mr Trump appeared to struggle to keep his eyes open – and at one point may have even fallen asleep.
“Trump appears to be sleeping. His head keeps dropping down and his mouth goes slack,” *New York Times *reporter Maggie Haberman reported.
The observation quickly inspired a new nickname for the 77-year-old former president: “Sleepy Don.”
You can always tell what trump is insecure about. He projects all of his faults on to others. They bother him and as a result he considers his faults the worse thing he can say about someone else.

Should’ve gone with “Dozing Don”
Nah, the sleepy is important, because it has a higher chance of penetrating cult logic to showcase what a hypocrite he is.
I don’t think his base is capable of processing hypocrisy correctly.
I think you’re right. But at this point, I’ll take the very slightly higher percentage chance of not being subject to a dictatorship
So…
In 2024 we have one candidate who can’t stay awake during his criminal trial…
And one candidate who isn’t facing criminal charges because of his age and memory issues…
Special counsel Robert Hur has declined to prosecute President Joe Biden for his handling of classified documents but said in a report released Thursday that Biden’s practices “present serious risks to national security” and added that part of the reason he wouldn’t charge Biden was that the president could portray himself as an “elderly man with a poor memory” who would be sympathetic to a jury.
“Our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen,” the report said, but added that the evidence “does not establish Mr. Biden’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.”
Why do people keep acting like Biden and trump are in anyway capable of being president?
This could be the easiest election ever if Dems just ran someone who wasnt 20 years past retirement age.
Of course, the transcript of the interview that report is based off totally supports those allegations. Not politically motivated at all. No sir.
Sheesh.
Well. I linked sources so you don’t have to take my word, you started your opinion in a condescending tone…
Do you understand the difference?
Young people are too smart to vote republican, old people are too dumb to vote for someone for someone younger than them. What you’re left with is Biden. He’s not ideal, but at least he isn’t Russia’s little bitch.
So what’s your excuse for 08 Obama being young and portraying himself as progressive resulting in not only winning, but flipping some red states for the first and last time in decades?
C’mon! You’re not going to get a catchphrase like “yes we can” twice in one lifetime.
Man, you just reminded me how depressing it is both candidates in 2024 are ripping off Reagan’s campaign slogans from over 40 years ago…
Like, they were both middle aged adults at the time, so I’m sure they don’t realize how much it highlights their age issues.
But it’s just depressing republicans and Democrats both go to Ronald fucking Reagan when they think of what voters want.
This shit ain’t representation
The dems will field a left wing candidate when the republican alternative isn’t a nazi populist who has stated publicly that he wants to destabilise the entire world and become god emperor for life. Simply put there’s too much at stake to start taking risks.
when the republican alternative isn’t a nazi
-
That will never happen…
-
Because that will never happen, it means by your logice will always have a neoliberal as president.
Which is exactly why Clinton’s 2016 primary campaign was rooting for trump
Your path just keeps the country slowly moving right when Dems are in control, and sprinting right when Republicans are.
The end result is we keep going right .
Like, republicans aren’t just magically going to become sane, especially if Dems keep moving right to try and steal voters from Republicans. It just concentrates the crazy and makes more nonvoters.
This isn’t an opinion, it’s been happening for 30+ years. Even if you didn’t notice.
I’m not saying it’s sound logic. Just making an observation.

Innocent until proven guilty.
Love how much mob mentality has been on the rise since trumps election lmao. Who would’ve thought.
Pretty clear to everyone who the lesser of two evils is
Pretty clear to everyone who the lesser of two evils is
…
No one said it wasn’t chief…
I said both candidates are bad. Not that they’re both equally bad.
If the most important thing is beating trump (and it is) why are we running a bad candidate against him instead of a good one?
He’s not a bad candidate. Could we do better? Always. Is that an option this year? No.
Stop trying to muddy the water to dissuade people from voting at all
He’s not a bad candidate
People are celebrating because he just got up to 43% approval…
His best numbers are Obama’s worst.
Biden is less popular with voters than he was four years ago, and it cost a billion dollars to beat Trump by the skin of his teeth.
How is Biden a good candidate?
And keep in mind “not trump” is a pretty common quality shared by almost everyone eligible to run for president.
Both sides are not the same. Fuck off with this opinion
No one said both were equally bad…
I said neither are good enough.
It’s pretty simple, but so is civility
