‘Commander in sleep’: Trump mocked after appearing to fall asleep in cabinet meeting

President Trump always swore he never gets tired. Now a single photo is tearing that myth apart. His eyes droop, his posture sags, and suddenly the loudest voice in American politics looks… spent. Allies insist he’s “sharper than ever.” Critics see a man finally colliding with time. One image. One room. One pres…

For years, Trump’s political power has been fused to a single idea: relentless stamina. He mocked Biden as a man who naps through history, bragged he could go without sleep, and turned late-night rallies into proof of his dominance. That’s why the Cabinet-room image hits so hard. In that frozen moment, the president doesn’t look like the tireless showman he sells to the world; he looks like a 79‑year‑old man enduring a grinding, two‑hour ordeal under fluorescent lights and relentless scrutiny.
The reactions reveal more than the photograph. Supporters see a human being briefly closing his eyes before launching into what they hail as an “amazing final answer.” Opponents see a leader whose schedule has quietly shortened, whose travel has slowed, whose fatigue now leaks into public view. Somewhere between the memes and the denials lies a simple, unsettling truth: even the most powerful office on earth cannot bargain with age forever.
