I watched the cabinet meeting but never saw him sleeping. If anyone else wants to double check, I would appreciate it as i hated every minute of that idiot circle jerk.

He is checking his phone or playing flappy bird or something when the pic was taken.

playing flappy bird

Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

It's fucking weird that there are people in this comment section acting like Trump is a naughty schoolboy texting his crush under the desk.

He's Trump. If he was shitposting it'd be on the table and any sycophant that had a problem with it would get told to shut up and get him a hamburger.

Yeah, that was kind of a layup.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Unless he's talking to his FSB handler on his second phone and doesn't want anyone to see

[–] [email protected] 3 points 16 hours ago

Why would he care? They've got their own.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Musk gets him excited. He's jerking off.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

Nah, Stormy made it clear that he doesn't have a two-hander, even with tiny hands.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago (12 children)

FYI, some of those cabinet members have expressly ordered their agencies to disregard some of m*sks crap. They aren't even all on the same page.

Good example for other migrant workers.

The optics of Musk addressing the room while Trump is disengaged are bad enough without simply making up things that are not there.

"Why is Elon Musk acting as the leader while Trump is disengaged" is a hard question for a reasonable person to deal with.

Saying "lol look at Trump sleeping" when that's obviously not what is happening, makes you come off as unserious and casts doubt on anything you say in the future.

Spreading misleading lies is not the way to engage with the world. (To those of you that are people and not disinformation bots/agents)

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 day ago (2 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (7 children)

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).

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

We know it has tiny hands, so at that distance, it can't possibly operate a phone with both tiny hands. ^^

Hes doing exactly what he wanted to do as president.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't believe you - I believe he's looking at his phone. Show me the video.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah we all hate Trump, but sometimes you look at the ground and focus on the conversation. Its pretty standard behaviour.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Name someone more addicted to shitposting…

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There's someone in that exact room who is more addicted to shitposting.

[–] [email protected] 175 points 1 day ago (11 children)

While I have saved this for later distribution, it looks more like he's checking his phone. Either way, he's not paying attention.

Dozin' Donnie.

What gets me about this photo is how fundamentally unserious the whole scene appears. The body language of nearly everyone, the lack of focus, the shabbiness of it all… just embarrassing. I’ve seen high school clubs looking more competent and serious.

I know this is just an aesthetics thing, but it gets to me. 🤷

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 day ago

The body language just says "we're all here to blow Elon", except for Trump who is allowed to nap after a hard day of golfing.

Why is a) He even in there? b) still wearing that stupid hat?

[–] [email protected] 110 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Doesn't want people to see his botched hair implants

He is really old, he'll be 79 in june. How many people that are that age, you hear they die, and you're like, "mmhmm, they had a long life." He should be at his country clubs being racist and assaulting women like all the other republicans. Retire, it's just a job man.

[–] [email protected] 63 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He did retire. Here he is asleep in his chair like grandpa after thanksgiving dinner. Musk's in charge now.

Jesus Christ, every single thing to come out of his campaign and mouth was projection. 'Sleepy Joe' my ass. More like drowsy Donny, who's uppers are always wearing off

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago

Let's hope the coke and the ketamine are doing their jobs in Muskrat's body and brain.
