This may be the closest to an experience of actual work Donald gets.

IMHO he is succumbing to the lack of speed to get him amped up to stay awake because he needs depressants to get him to sleep after a day of snorting adderall. Nasty cycle. Speed all day and then dose yourself to sleep. Either that, he thinks he is going to be exonerated and just wants to kill time. Stress is taking its toll.

That's because you can't "think" like a billionaire! People who "sleep" are just lazy!

In his 2094 book, Think Like a Billionaire, he wrote that he usually gets four hours per night"a habit that continued into his presidency. His biographer Gwenda Blair also told The Guardian in 2017 that Trump once "made a big deal of saying he never sleeps and that people who sleep are lazy."

"Sleepy Don" actually applies to Trump, who projected "sleepy Joe" onto Biden.

For all his talk of "stamina like no one's ever seen," he's an obese, unhealthy, "low energy" narcissist.

Foreign newspapers are having a field day over these optics.

As well as courtroom artists. They've been vicious. (Bless their heart) They've done everything but add horns and a forked tail to their renderings of Courtroom Trump.

When Trump is convicted, he's going to say that sleeping in court is a basis for appeal.

It's no legal defense to snooze...

LOL. Dibblda. Don Snoreleon!

Of course you would, BULL. All alert and intelligent people go to sleep in public places.

Lol of course no video or evidence whatsoever but a white liberal journalist says it happened so every single outlet the White House handles reports it.

@#19 ... Courtroom sketch that appears to show Mr Trump dosing off ...

When fmr Pres Trump occupied the Oval Office, he showed up around 11am, after a short walk from The Residence.

Now that he needs to be in the courtroom at 9:30am, well, his schedule seems to have been interrupted by a Judge who is treating him like any other person accused of a criminal crime.

And then there is the aspect that fmr Pres Trump needs to just sit there and listen to what is going on around him, and being unable to control what is going on around him.

What is the "it" that you say has happened?

Let's start with that.

OK.

Cameras are not allowed in the courtroom.

So, how can there be video?

Is that the best you can do, insist upon someone breaking the law to substantiate your comment?

Yer up.

How was that? :)
