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

Let's hope the coke and the ketamine are doing their jobs in Muskrat's body and brain.
What is up with the hand of the person on the bottom left corner?
Someone trying to flip the table but ultimately failing.
Looks like a right hand gripping the table
It’s The Penguin
Looks like the start of a round of Mr Thumb
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)
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.
You are both right and I've really learned something from your comments, thanks.
his eyes are closed too, conservatives try to say hes posting on truth social.
If optics still mattered, I don't think Trump would have won any election, let alone 2.
That's no reason to abandon truth and give in to rampant misinformation.
Trump looks like he's powered down
How do we make that permanent?
Gun practice, or find somebody with the flu to cough on him
Dim MAGA and the Sycophants.
This picture makes me think of the boardroom scene in the movie Dogma.
50 l 50 he's looking at memory of "that one time with Epstein and those girls", or in a Big Mac coma.
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
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. 🤷
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.
Musk looks like the sandwich trolley guy telling people about the specials.
What you're picking up on is body language and that's not strictly aesthetics. It's sometimes even more important than verbal language.
Body language predates verbal language by literal tens of millions of years so year checks out.
To me this picture says one thing: these reps and the sycophants that surround them were never representing the ppl. They just represent what keeps them, personally, in power.

I mean, he's obviously just staring at his phone, but if this had been Biden then they'd have been calling him Sleepy Joe in all the headlines. :|
Obviously? No. There is no possible way his hands could be holding that phone. And we all know he is absolutely a 2-handing smart phone user. *Yes to the rest
I think he's got legs down there a phone could rest on.
He looks like an old man trying to take a dick pic.
