President Donald Trump’s controversial trip to Saudi Arabia was punctuated by a video clip going viral, showing the Republican leader falling asleep on the job, which prompted the internet to roast him.
Trump seemingly dozed off in the middle of a press briefing after he arrived in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Tuesday where he met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and announced that he would be lifting all sanctions against the Middle Eastern country, calling the relationship with the United States "more powerful than ever before.” And while the two nations’ leaders also announced a $142 billion arms deal, Trump falling asleep in front of reporters is all the internet can talk about.
Could the 78-year-old politician have been suffering from jet lag or just closed his eyes for a few seconds? Sure. But this isn’t the first time the man who called former President Donald “sleepy Joe” has fallen asleep during important moments. He nodded off during his New York hush money trial, he fell asleep during a campaign event, and he was recently accused of napping during the funeral for Pope Francis.
Trump’s latest nap time moment was caught on tape and went viral with MAGA supporters claiming her was only sleeping because he’s working so hard for his country, most of the internet was giving him hilarious nicknames (“Don Snoreleone” is a personal favorite), and roasting him with posts like, "Omg i think he thought he just died, he had to look up in see if he was in hell or not.”
