The internet mocked President Donald Trump after he was caught sleeping — again — during a White House press conference on Friday.
Trump appeared to doze off while sitting in the Oval Office while Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick stood behind the president with television personality Dr. Phil and Dr. Ben Carson, former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under the first Trump administration. Patrick claimed there was no such thing as separation of church and state in the United States.
“Separation of church and state is not in the Constitution,” Patrick said.
Social media users noticed Trump’s eyes were closed and reacted to the moment.
“Here’s Donald Trump falling asleep as Dan Patrick goes on and on: What is Trump dreaming about?” Political commentator Lucas Sanders wrote on X.
“Today is Friday. That means Trump is sleeping on the job, again,” Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) wrote on X.
“BREAKING: Trump caught dozing off while on the job once again. Time to impeach,” Canadian journalist and political commentator Mark Slapinski wrote on X.
“Trump’s face is drooping as he wages total war on wokeness,” journalist Aaron Rupar wrote on Bluesky.
“Wow, that is one long blink!” Writer and podcaster David Roberts wrote on Bluesky.
