‘Sleepy Don’: Trump Falls Asleep (Five Times!) at Hush Money Trial​

Now there’s a new problem with it that no one anticipated: It’s easy to turn it back on “Sleepy Don” when he nods off — repeatedly! — during a criminal trial over hush-money payments he allegedly made to cover up an affair with a porn star.

During day one of Trump’s criminal trial in Manhattan — which will determine whether he broke the law by paying off Stormy Daniels just before the 2016 election, then disguising the payments — the former president reportedly fell asleep in the courtroom. Though Trump was reportedly furious that journalists caught him sleeping in court that didn’t keep him from nodding off repeatedly as the trial continued. Instead, he offered a dubious excuse on Truth Social, claiming he’s not sleeping at all, “I simply close my beautiful blue eyes, sometimes, listen intensely, and take it ALL in!!!”

Here’s a running list of Trump’s courtroom naps (or intense “listening” sessions)...

Goes full circle. Trump said Sleepy Joe back in the early 2020s, and now in the mid-2020s, we have Drowsy Don. Man, this is great. Seems that Trump's words are similar to a boomerang, and return to haunt himself. Thanks for the parody song, and the article, brother.

It's one of the things you see in dissociation, when one goes through a traumatic experience, from which there seems to be no exit.

He seems angry, confused, and scared. And sleep is one way to escape it. Or it could be depression.

Or yes, it could be a worsening of the cognitive issues that he's had before.

I seem to be the opposite of those emotions but depression is true. First-hand knowledge.

My oldest son has depression. He's had to do heroic things to keep himself going and taking care of the disorder. I have no idea what it must be like, but I give thanks for every time he laughs or smiles.

Praise God he's here. I didn't realize I had depression until I had my shotgun under my chin, thumb on the trigger ready to pull and God sent a vision of my two little girls seeing my brains scattered on the headboard which snapped me out of my funk, then I saw Doc. My experience comes from negative thoughts that wouldn't go away and after a few years, I ended up hopeless, nothing good in life. I see how easy it is for suicide it is a terrible disorder.

Donald Trump is snoozing off because he is bored

Depression is marked by persistent bouts of sadness, disappointment, and hopelessness, as well as other emotional, mental, and physical changes that lead to difficulties with daily activities. When difficult emotions remain present for more than two weeks, are felt nearly every day, and remain present for most of the day, they may be related to a group of mood disorders called depressive disorders.

Depression disorders are often accompanied by sleep troubles. People with depression may find it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep during the night or experience periods of excessive daytime sleepiness.

Depression and Sleep

Understanding the link between sleep and depression can help improve your sleep quality and better manage your mental health.

He's never been held accountable for anything in his life before he became president. Now it's all closing in on him. Not surprising that he's having some difficulty. His pal, Howard Stern predicted this.

Thanks. I've been on pills for over 30 years. When I was younger I tried stopping because I don't like pills but after the third time, I realized that I'll go to the grave taking them. I learned that the first sign of my depression coming back was irritability.

Maybe. I notice one thing about most past presidents and how it seems to age them.

Be careful my friend. Doctors can also help. We also live in an individualistic country, so people don't like helping each other out. Though, we can trust in most doctors, as the Bible told us to.

Date	May 8, 2024
Verse	Matthew 9:12 (NIV): "On hearing this, Jesus said, ‘It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.’" Sirach 38:1-15 (NSRA): "Honor physicians for their services, for the Lord created them; for their gift of healing comes from the Most High, and they are rewarded by the king. The skill of physicians makes them distinguished, and in the presence of the great they are admired. The Lord created medicines out of the earth, and the sensible will not despise them. Was not water made sweet with a tree in order that its power might be known. And he gave skill to human beings that he might be glorified in his marvelous works. By them the physician heals and takes away pain; the pharmacist makes a mixture from them. God's works will never be finished; and from him health spreads over all the earth. My child, when you are ill, do not delay, but pray to the Lord, and he will heal you. Give up your faults and direct your hands rightly, and cleanse your heart from all sin. Offer a sweet-smelling sacrifice, and a memorial portion of choice flour, and pour oil on your offering, as much as you can afford. Then give the physician his place, for the Lord created him; do not let him leave you, for you need him. There may come a time when recovery lies in the hands of physicians, for they too pray to the Lord that he grant them success in diagnosis and in healing, for the sake of preserving life. He who sins against his Maker, will be defiant toward the physician."
Explanation	Matthew 9:12 and Sirach 38:1-15 both emphasize the importance of doctors and the value of medical care, especially for those who are sick. In Matthew 9:12, Jesus acknowledges that doctors are necessary for those who are ill, as opposed to the healthy who do not require medical attention. This verse highlights the importance of seeking medical help when needed. Sirach 38:1-15 further emphasizes the role of doctors in healing and the divine origin of their skills. The text praises physicians for their services and the Lord's role in creating them and granting them the gift of healing. It also acknowledges that some people may recover from illness through medical intervention, emphasizing the importance of not delaying in seeking care when ill. Both texts suggest that Christians should trust in the expertise of doctors and seek medical care when needed. However, Sirach 38:1-15 also emphasizes the importance of humility, repentance, and prayer in the healing process. Christians are encouraged to offer their best to the physician, as well as to God, in the form of a sacrifice and prayer for healing.

Some worse than others.

Here's What These Presidents Looked Like Before and After Serving in Office

Needless to say, running the country isn't easy.

I see that with my son. Some depression is circumstantial. Some of it is intrinsic, and has to be treated over a lifetime.
