    How is it obvious that he isn’t sleeping? He looks like he’s sleeping. Without the caption I would assume he’s sleeping as well.

      His hands are very close together, he’s looking between his hands and we know Trump is a social media junkie.

      Without the caption you would assume he’s sleeping because someone probably flipped through hundreds of frames of video to find the shot that looked the worst so they could post about it.

      Trump, if you’re to believe the rumors, uses stimulants and drinks a lot of caffeinated soda. He’s not falling asleep in the middle of the day.

      It’s worse, he’s letting an unelected man, the richest man in the world, who paid for his campaign, act as the leader while he reads Twitter.

      Him merely being asleep would be preferable over Musk being in the room. Incompetent and lazy leadership by Trump would be vastly better than his simply handing the reigns of power to an unelected non-American.

      That’s the messaging that needs to be happening. All this is going to do is make the blue team laugh and the red team think the blue team is ignorant.

      Meanwhile, Elon is taking a chainsaw to our entire government while we’re too busy trying to score points on the other team (who are the people we need to be allying with to protect the US).

        I’m not suggesting people lie, but your messaging doesn’t have to be completely true to work. That’s how the red team got elected in the first place

          I’m not saying that lying and manipulation don’t work. I’m saying that we shouldn’t be on the team of the liars and manipulators.
