US President Donald Trump was observed appearing to nod off during a White House event. Trump hosted a Health Care Affordability Event on April 24, during which concerns about his health arose as his eyes closed and his mouth seemed to droop while others spoke. A video shared by an online user captured moments where the US leader intermittently closed his eyes and tilted his head. Commenting on the incident, one user remarked, “Trump is fighting total war against wokeness as his eyes close and his mouth droops.” Other observers noted, “Trump dozes off at his event on affordability,” and “Trump takes a quick nap in the Oval Office.”
The peculiar episode unfolded as Trump engaged with reporters in the Oval Office regarding the conflict with Iran and fielded questions about the potential use of nuclear weapons. Trump responded, “No, I wouldn’t. Why would I need it? Why would a stupid question like that be asked? Why would I use a nuclear weapon when we totally, in a very convincing way, decimated them? A nuclear weapon should never be allowed to be used by anybody.”
