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.”
Too perfect.
I like this because it makes me feel like it’s a decade ago
Delightful.
MOAR SHUGGAR!
In. Water.
Oh yeah, isn’t there an Adderall shortage right now?
The dude probably just isn’t cranked up on his normal level of amphetamines.
I bet he keeps falling asleep, gets even fatter, and is even less capable of following his own thoughts as the Adderall drought continues.
What a great time for him to be on criminal trial…
This is pretty funny but realistically, even with the shortage, he is still getting his. I myself have to take it and I’ve had zero issues getting it. He is certainly on the top of the list of those receiving it.
Adderall is being generous, this dude is probably shoveling pills and uppers every morning. You don’t just make court appearances and then rally every day of the week at 80 years old without either being in good shape or being on a long list of stimulants.
Give him a UA for recreational drugs today.
Adderall shortage is silly. They should just ask the cartel for help.
Most-damaging-traitor-in-American-history Don.
Using one of the insults Trump commonly hurled at others: he’s a very low-energy criminal defendant.
“Don’t you think he looks…tired?”
This whole sequence in the show is just fascinatingly English. That sentence wouldn’t do anything in any other country but it’s a death sentence in British politics, especially for a woman. The entire country is just a bunch of Mean Girls.
I suppose there’s just so much tea to be spilt. It’s only natural.
Yeah we did that in Boston once
“More peas, dear?”
Yes, I know who you are.
Whatever he or the GOP says is projection. Anything.

Should’ve gone with “Dozing Don”

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
Drowzy Don
I love that furaffinity has different subdomains for sfw vs nsfw lmao
Also that drawing is unsettling in exactly the way I would expect
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.

He also went on about “sleepy Joe”, but now it’s “sleepy Don J”

Every accusation from his face hole is a confession.
trump because he has Low T
Very likely does at that age with his lack of self care.
Whatever distracts his base from the actual contents of the trial is a good thing for him.
The trial hasn’t actually started yet, so it’s probably not a big deal.
Droopy don
This is the best summary I could come up with:
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.
The former president’s apparent courtroom nap eventually began trending on X, with users flocking to the hashtag #DonSnorleone, a reference to the mafia kingpin Don Corleone from the Godfather series.
“I prefer Presidents who don’t fall asleep before the lunch break in their hush money paid to a porn star election interference trial,” one user mocked.
Mr Trump is charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records over so-called hush money payments made before the 2016 election to pay off adult film star Stormy Daniels in exchange for silence over an alleged affair.
The Trump campaign later vehemently denied rumours of the former president’s brief courtroom nap, saying in a statement: “This is 100% Fake News coming from ‘journalists’ who weren’t even in the court room.”

Well he always makes such a big deal about how anti-woke he is. I didn’t realize how literally he meant it.
Personally, I like Jimmy Kimmel’s “Dozo The Clown”.
Lazy! Dozing Donny has better alliteration!
