Trump Denies Dozing Off in Court, Attributes Closed Eyes to Intense Listening

[Social Media]

 

Former President Trump has refuted claims that he was sleeping during his hush money case trial, asserting that he merely closes his eyes to "listen intensely" and absorb the proceedings. Dismissing reports from reporters in the courtroom, Trump took to Truth Social to address what he deemed "FAKE NEWS MEDIA" coverage of the trial.

 

Despite multiple instances of observed closed eyes during the trial, Trump insisted that he remains alert and engaged, utilizing moments of closed eyes to focus on listening intently. This defense comes in response to reports of Trump seen with his eyes closed for extended periods, including during jury selection and while his attorney passed him notes.

 

The New York Times detailed Trump's apparent moments of drowsiness, noting instances where his head drooped and mouth hung open before he appeared to jolt awake upon receiving notes from his attorney. The incident has since become fodder for mockery from Democrats and late-night hosts.

 

Amidst the courtroom drama, Keith Davidson, the attorney representing Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, testified, shedding light on key aspects of the case. Additionally, Doug Daus, a forensic analyst from the district attorney's office, provided further insights into the proceedings.

 

As the trial unfolds, Trump's defense against allegations of dozing off in court underscores the tension and scrutiny surrounding the high-profile case. While the former president maintains his posture of attentive listening, the courtroom drama continues to captivate audiences and raise questions about the conduct of the trial.

I’ve heard it reported the defendant was being anti-woke.

 

Regardless, he’s just confirmed the reports of his court room naps struck his fragile ego while ensuring future departures into the land of nod will garner more reporting.

 

The defence rests!

That might mean something if we weren't talking about the most notorious lying grifter / con man in American history.

[bendejo]

And then there is digestion itself.

The clown trump sent out a post on his TS social media about how he just "closes my beautiful blue eyes" to focus, not snooze.

 

More trump lies.

 

The Cohen nickname (Von Sh!tzinPants) is childish, but absolutely appropriate for trump, who gives any and all critics and opponents similarly childish nicknames.

 

Jimmy Kimmel has called trump "Gasolini" and "The Founding Farter". Kimmel also took pride in the fact he was introduced as evidence in the trial, as he had Stormy on his show in 2018, which forced trump to go into damage control. Kimmel jokingly said he wished another part of his Stormy interview could have been entered, and then replayed the part where Stormy is asked to chose the most appropriate mushroom from a display Kimmel put before her. (For the record, Stormy chose a tiny little nubbin, saying "That's the closest one")

Nothing wrong with taking a nap. Court procedures are tedious, to say the least.

but his white house staff say he has the attention span of a 6 year old so I rather believe he was intensely sleeping.  

[bendejo]

It's his party and he'll sleep if he wants to.

Attentive listening....and...snoring??🤗

[spidermike007]

His health appears to be failing, his hamburger diet may be catching up to him, at his old age of 77, going on 90, and he seems semi-senile. He can barely keep his eyes open. Perhaps carrying around that 145 kilos is more difficult than he thought.

If this was about almost anyone else, it would be insignificant. But Trump called Joe Biden ‘sleepy Joe’ about a million times. So when he then falls asleep himself, several times, it suddenly becomes quite significant, wouldn't you agree? Or don’t you see the hypocrisy there?

   Sleepy Joes was a reference to his persona whilst he is awake , it was not about Joe going to sleep .

Sleepy Joe when he's awake and talking , not when hes sleeping

What's the matter you can't stand any criticism of your Master? Is your sense of humor as dry and lacking as his?
