Those weird sycophantic meetings where everyone takes turns praising Trump for the cameras always remind me of a classic episode of The Twilight Zone called "It's a Good Life" (s03e08). For anyone out of the loop, it's about a six-year-old kid who had god-like powers and used them to hold his small town hostage. Anyone that failed to tell him what a good boy he was and how everything he did was good and special would be "banished to the Cornfield." The similarities are disturbing.
I'm sorry. Everyone knows that Trump is an absolute cunt but a single frame with his eyes closed does not prove he's asleep. There was a similar claim a few weeks back but if actually go and watch the video he literally has his eyes shut for two seconds. Let's actually focus on the shit he's doing, the shit he's done rather than this low quality propaganda. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
It is normal when falling asleep sitting down to close your eyes open them and close them again. We've all been that tired at least once. When one is actually wakeful you blink your don't close your eyes for seconds at a time and you make active motions like looking around when different people are speaking or shifting. He appears in fact to be falling asleep.
Not true. He falls asleep when a group of grown ass people sit/stand around him while falling over themselves to fellate his ego. There is only one place he doesn't fall asleep and that's when there are children present.
Abandoned key issues? For American people maybe, however I'm sure more financial goodies for himself and his family were confirmed. That was the only part that would matter to him.
Yep, from my perspective as an Australian, he might be making the world more racist, but on the plus side, the AUD is climbing against USD and we're making major trade deals with China and Europe
It's an attempt to deflect and downplay the damage currently being done by saying "oh but both parties ran 80yr olds" as if that's the problem and we don't have an army of 50yr old fascists eager to take center stage.
None of this damage could be done without Democratic help. They could have used the "nuclear option" when Biden was President, for example. Trent Lott (R) started calling it "nuclear option" in 2000s, and bOtH sIdEs adopted the term quickly because it scares the proles half to death.
It's a simple majority vote, a parliamentary rule. Before Trent Lott (R), it was called "the constitutional option."
Democrats are playing good cops, open your eyes and see. They are all looting us right now.
Please vote! I do too, but you should know the Ds won't save us.

That's why I had to stop watching The Boys in one of the middle seasons. It got waaay too real with the shit going on.

What happened on Epstein Island stats within the White House.
I'm quite sure that if we ever allowed to see fully unredacted files we will learn that a lot of those people were involved.
I also think they got additional compromising material via DOGE (which was there to improve "efficiency")

And even more videos when they're shut a lot longer.
And at least sentence him for tax fraud. Whilst he's in jail they can handle the Epstein files too

Still, not the point. Everyone falls asleep during boring meetings. Not everyone bombs schools to distract from the fact they rape children.

Have you seen that meeting? So you have a clip of him getting asleep?
MnemonicBump@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 97d
There a MULTIPLE videos. There's literally a video of this meeting with Xi.
krisevol@lemmus.org · 1 pts · 97d
I saw this one, it was a very short meeting. I posted the link on a main comment.
Ask the videos I've seen he's been awake in. I've only seen small clip and still pictures but the fun videos just show him looking down.
krisevol@lemmus.org · 1 pts · 97d
I looked all over YouTube and Google, i can't find a video showing trump sleeping during this meeting. You have a link?
whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works · 17 pts · 97d
I do hatethis guy as everyone else but I have hard time to believe a picture like this out of contest.
People do blink, so it's easy to take a frame where it looks like he's sleeping when he's just shitting his pants
Canonical_Warlock@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 23 pts · 97d
Exactly. Maybe he's not sleepy but rather just deeply enjoying the feeling if sitting in fresh shit.

He was threatened with contempt of court a dozen or so times he kept falling asleep when he was convicted of all those felonies.

he was greeted by kids cheer squad with flag pom poms. They should stay during meetings. It is rumored that Trump likes kids.

Trump has officially fallen asleep on camera more then Biden.
auzy1@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 97d
Even worse, one of the videos they made a huge deal about was doctored to make it look like Biden was crazy, by cutting out some of it.
Whereas, Trump is openly crazy, and we're literally waking up every morning to something weird he's done

Saying that we shouldn't have 80 year olds running for the presidency is a both sides take?

It's best for everyone that we just keep him sedated and comfortable until it's over.
Remember "Sleepy Joe Biden"?
(i hate Biden too, I've had enough of 80-year-old Presidents thank you very much just my opinion)

Can we stop the "Trump Type" tweets? It was funny for like maybe the first week when Gavin Newsom's social media intern was doing it.
