For more than two weeks, Donald Trump has spent much of his time in the New York courtroom, where his trial in the Stormy Daniels affair is taking place. And on several occasions, the journalists present saw the presidential candidate, who risks a lot during this trial… fall asleep.
A journalist from New York Times stated as early as April 15 that Donald Trump seemed “falling asleep repeatedly, his mouth going slack and his head falling onto his chest”. And she’s not the only one. “Sometimes he sleeps, it’s 100% true, I’ve seen him” testified on CNN another journalist present during the hearing.
Funny. Because for several years, the nickname that Trump has given to Joe Biden has been “Sleepy Joe”, referring to the advanced age of his rival and trying to discredit him. This paradox has not escaped the public, who mock Trump calling him “Sleepy Don” on the networks.
But Trump abhors mockery when it concerns him. As usual, he responded via his social network. “Contrary to [à ce que disent] the media fake news, I don’t fall asleep during the witch hunt, especially not today. I just close my beautiful blue eyes, from time to time, listen intently and enjoy EVERYTHING”, he declares.
