After his third medical checkup in 13 months, and a... blitz from his social media team defending him, President Trump has once again fallen asleep on camera in the middle of a Cabinet meeting, on Wednesday.

The president could be seen with his eyes closed for a prolonged period of time while sitting right next to Secretary of State Marco Rubio. And he seemed to struggle to keep them open while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke, as well.
....
This is at least the eighth time President Trump has fallen asleep on camera this year.

“Secretary of War” consults with commander-in-chief, 79

Earlier in the week:

A CNN segment scrutinizing President Donald Trump’s health—including questions about the 79-year-old’s sleep habits—went viral online and drew a sharp rebuke from the White House.

On Tuesday, CNN medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner joined host Kate Bolduan to discuss the commander-in-chief’s fitness for office ahead of Trump’s trip to Walter Reed Medical Center for his second check-up since October.

Reiner, a professor at George Washington University’s School of Medicine and former Vice President Dick Cheney’s longtime cardiologist, outlined what he described as a range of pressing concerns, alluding to the possibility that the White House has not been transparent.

“The president has severe daytime somnolence. He falls asleep very often. He’s fallen asleep in the Oval Office on multiple occasions with people talking to him, in the cabinet room,” he said. “And chronic insomnia is a severe illness. It can result in an increase in risk of dementia, a decrease in cognitive effects in older people,” he added,

Don’t concern yourself too much.

After his ‘28 term ends he may step down/retire anyway.

Funny how the lefties never made a peep about any dang thing Biden did for 4 years, lol.

When CNN was touting "deep fakes" for videos where Biden looked addle brained, ignoring the high volume of lids used, avoidance of the topic where the Biden admin strictly locked down questions for Biden - including prescreening all of his questions and the final claims "Joe Biden is as sharp as a tac" completely obliterates anything CNN claims about future presidents as it pertains to health and job ability.

Seriously, all media outlets who hid the details of Biden's incompetence and helplessness need to be stripped down to the studs and rebuilt. Every news anchor and reporter who went to bat for Joe Biden are permanently toxic. Zero credibility and should never be taken at face value. Most Americans feel this way and it's why the U.S. media is seen as a laughable joke that most do not take seriously.

Dang! For sure I'm not voting for him in '28.

I'm 42, healthy, and I would doze off if I had to sit in conference rooms all day.

Is he awake, alert, sharp, and making decisions when it matters? Yes. Was Biden? No.

Briefers have gone on record saying his briefings had to be done in pictures and the man cannot finish a sentence without rambling. Biden did a debate for everyone to see and was replaced on the ticket while you guys complained about that. Pick a lane.

You’re right. Trump was at that debate and he won the election. I’ll stay in that lane, but you quit swerving all over the place.

Again, I call bull**** to this doctor's claim, considering he's never examined the president

Again, Trumps' up in the wee hours of the morning (as usually seen by his late night tweeter-stances). He works by the policy of "strategic napping".

Businessmen that have to watch the clock hours of the day in multiple time zones, do it all the time, particularly stock market traders.

I prefer (not really) Trump's late night TruthSocial posts every time over Biden's obvious senility

I don’t think anyone really complained. Most were glad they installed an idiot DEI hire that was so beatable. We all just called out the Dem’s “democracy” hypocrisy.
