Trump Falls Asleep Onstage at September 11 Ceremony
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/51816803
President Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 memorial ceremony.
The president dozed off at multiple points during the event Friday, slumped over in his chair with his eyes closed and his head hanging down while everyone else onstage—Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Melania Trump, and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice—was clearly awake.

Kinda satisfying knowing trump spends so much of his time doing things he hates doing.
Just fucking die already
In a few months we'll see this man drool uncontrollably.
I don’t care if he falls asleep. I just get disappointed that he wakes up.
Reminder that like 90% of his election campaign was telling everyone that sleepy people are unfit for office.
It wasn’t just him. Every media outlet hounded Biden about his age, and now they ignore Trump’s decline. It’s my best evidence of the media being captured and controlled by this authoritarian oligarchy.
Conservatives love hypocrisy because it's a demonstration of the social hierarchy they're all obsessed with (it's not a problem when he does it because he is Donald Trump)
I pray for the day it’s one of those forever naps.
Let's put him in the coffin already...
Make it like an Iron Maiden, just to be sure.....
Right? They had the perfect opportunity. They could have him declared dead, and buried before he wakes up.
remember to remove the coffin bell.
Wow! This is the second shittiest thing he's done on 9/11!
What was the other thing? Being alive on 9/11?
Calling in to a radio station on the day of the attacks to brag that he now had the tallest building in NY.
Oooh I had heard of this, but didn't realize it was on 9/11. Not that it makes it ok, but I thought it was much later. He's such a shit human.
Fucking weekend at Bernie’s.
Speaking of which, has anyone heard from Mitch the turtle lately?
I call him Schrödinger's Mitch
Me too!
Nope. Everyone is waiting to see what happens when Congress resumes on Monday.
He instantly falls down another set of stairs and explodes. Like in cartoons.
Clearly AI, but Biden totally would hold the phone like that for a selfie 😂
Sharpton? I don't see him there...
Nah, he's livestreaming
Can you photoshop a dick on his face?
Well, sure.
But, can you photoshop 3 dicks in?
His nose is the second. One more to go
Third one is in his mouth.
Three dicks are a bridge too far, I'm afraid.
wonderful!
Sleepy donald trump,
Little marco rubio,
He lies for daddy
They name the names like it's admirable the rest stayed awake, but I think they are all just bracing for the inevitable cropdusting. Dude likes to shit while he sleeps, going by the videos I've seen. Note how there is no one behind him, and his wife is seated far enough away to allow plenty of airflow between them.
Also note the unevenness in his face: the right side of his mouth (his right; to the left in the pic, last one in the article) is markedly different from the left, even when he appears to be facing the camera directly, and that entire side of his face is somewhat slumped compared to the other. Seems to be getting worse these days.
He's got that stroke face going again
Pining for the fjords.
PININ' for the FJORDS?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?, look, why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got 'im home?
Beautiful plumage, the Mar-a-lago orange.
Hey, listen - I never wanted to work in politics. I wanted to be a lumberjack!
When the focus is not on him re resorts to his true sloth like form.
Dozy Don at it again.
I missed the word asleep at first :(
He's just resting his eyes..... and his brain.
The latter is a permanent state.
wait... he has a brain?
Stunning and brave 🫡
Honestly though it’s way less damaging to my calm since I’ve just started leaning into the absurdism of it all
From what I remember Biden used to fall asleep cause he's mentally challenged, Trump falls asleep cause he actually tries working whatever
Trump, hard at work (2026, colorized)
Fucking lol. The golfer in chief is such a hard worker everybody.
Biden was old af, and was definitely on the decline during the period before he dropped out of the election, but I don't ever recall him falling asleep at official events.
Have a link or something to refresh my memory since it's so fresh in yours?
Gonna just let the "mentally challenged" thing slide I guess... I know it can be difficult not to project sometimes. You did your best.
Care to explain how this is supposed to work? He's falling asleep because he's trying to work?
Did I just waste time typing up a reply to an LLM? Because goddamn this isn't even a coherent thought.
Trump is just tired because he stayed up late the night before doing blow and raping children with his Republican buddies. He just worked overtime for the American people, raping their children.
Obvious troll is obvious.
Proof? I don't recall any news articles about Biden falling asleep at public events.
Trump routinely falls asleep. All his time at golf courses and doing interior design for the White House must be taxing.
Lol, you did a funny
We really are fucked when you're getting downvoted because people don't realize you're being sarcastic. Yeesh.
People unironically think these things, we can't tell anymore
You’re right, his posting history makes it very clear that he’s being sarcastic.
/s
I didn't look at the post history of this person and if they are not being sarcastic they're a moron so I figured I would make an assumption it was a joke and not another r word take.
That's just the world I want to live in though I guess. Like if someone unironically thinks Trump is doing a good job or Biden was more "sleepy" they're pants on head dumb.
