What an interesting observation. I can see Trump closing his eyes to pretend that he’s not in a courtroom facing the consequences of his actions. After all, the man has never been held accountable for anything in his life. Now that he’s forced to sit down and shut his fucking mouth, he closes his eyes to shut out the world which eventually leads him to falling asleep. And this is the ALPHA male MAGATs worship.
If by alpha you mean a broken, unstable mess unsuitable for production, then yes, Trump is an alpha.
As an person who takes medication for ADD, wonder if it's cause he's not taking them these days (least as much as he used to) he's pretty much confirmed taking them and before I knew I had it I'd knod off in meetings, much as I tried not to. Mostly get to two the head knod stage and jerk more awake.
Also I'd knod off on car rides even while on work trips, they were longer and boring, like a couple hours. For those that may think they have it as well but may need further proof of signs, those were some signs to it previously that I didn't know. Before reading up on it I had no idea getting sleepy in certain situations was a flag for it.
Of course if I've misread these signs in articles incorrectly please correct me in comments, I don't want to give false information, I just sort of take my meds and deal with it these days.
Are you also in your late 70s?
