While I have saved this for later distribution, it looks more like he's checking his phone. Either way, he's not paying attention.

That's what it looks like to me. To be honest though just about everything on the internet is probably more important than what Elongated is saying.
Oh my God this comment just made me realize when the inevitable Watergate type scandal happens with this administration it will be called Elongate
I think we need to retire -gate. Watergate was a laughable nothing of a scandal compared to what the Trump regime does daily.
-a-lago
I think we need to retire -gate.
OK. But please let us have Elongate first. It's almost like centuries of English language evolution have led us to this moment.

He's obviously looking at his phone. This isn't the burn the meme makes it out to be.
The real fucked up shit is the world's richest man addressing the Cabinet. In a fucking baseball hat.

The optics of Musk addressing the room while Trump is disengaged are bad enough without simply making up things that are not there.
"Why is Elon Musk acting as the leader while Trump is disengaged" is a hard question for a reasonable person to deal with.
Saying "lol look at Trump sleeping" when that's obviously not what is happening, makes you come off as unserious and casts doubt on anything you say in the future.
Spreading misleading lies is not the way to engage with the world. (To those of you that are people and not disinformation bots/agents)
How is it obvious that he isn't sleeping? He looks like he's sleeping. Without the caption I would assume he's sleeping as well.
His hands are very close together, he's looking between his hands and we know Trump is a social media junkie.
Without the caption you would assume he's sleeping because someone probably flipped through hundreds of frames of video to find the shot that looked the worst so they could post about it.
Trump, if you're to believe the rumors, uses stimulants and drinks a lot of caffeinated soda. He's not falling asleep in the middle of the day.
It's worse, he's letting an unelected man, the richest man in the world, who paid for his campaign, act as the leader while he reads Twitter.
Him merely being asleep would be preferable over Musk being in the room. Incompetent and lazy leadership by Trump would be vastly better than his simply handing the reigns of power to an unelected non-American.
That's the messaging that needs to be happening. All this is going to do is make the blue team laugh and the red team think the blue team is ignorant.
Meanwhile, Elon is taking a chainsaw to our entire government while we're too busy trying to score points on the other team (who are the people we need to be allying with to protect the US).

Why is a) He even in there? b) still wearing that stupid hat?
He is really old, he'll be 79 in june. How many people that are that age, you hear they die, and you're like, "mmhmm, they had a long life." He should be at his country clubs being racist and assaulting women like all the other republicans. Retire, it's just a job man.
He did retire. Here he is asleep in his chair like grandpa after thanksgiving dinner. Musk's in charge now.

He is 2 years younger than my grandad. And I would not trust my grandpa to run the country. He is just too old.
I would dead ass rather roll the dice with your granddad
I would rather roll the dice with my own granddad, and he's already dead

What gets me about this photo is how fundamentally unserious the whole scene appears. The body language of nearly everyone, the lack of focus, the shabbiness of it all… just embarrassing. I’ve seen high school clubs looking more competent and serious.
I know this is just an aesthetics thing, but it gets to me. 🤷
The body language just says "we're all here to blow Elon", except for Trump who is allowed to nap after a hard day of golfing.
What you're picking up on is body language and that's not strictly aesthetics. It's sometimes even more important than verbal language.

It's fucking weird that there are people in this comment section acting like Trump is a naughty schoolboy texting his crush under the desk.
He's Trump. If he was shitposting it'd be on the table and any sycophant that had a problem with it would get told to shut up and get him a hamburger.
Unless he's talking to his FSB handler on his second phone and doesn't want anyone to see

I watched the cabinet meeting but never saw him sleeping. If anyone else wants to double check, I would appreciate it as i hated every minute of that idiot circle jerk.
He is checking his phone or playing flappy bird or something when the pic was taken.
playing flappy bird
Is that what the kids are calling it these days?
I don't believe you - I believe he's looking at his phone. Show me the video.
yeah super important meetings require some tweeting time while the billionaire who actually runs the show talks.
every teenager knows this

FYI, some of those cabinet members have expressly ordered their agencies to disregard some of m*sks crap. They aren't even all on the same page.

Jesus Christ, every single thing to come out of his campaign and mouth was projection. 'Sleepy Joe' my ass. More like drowsy Donny, who's uppers are always wearing off

OT, but what do you mean "Sign-in Required" when trying to read the post on bluesky, weren't they supposed to be better than twitter?
This user has requested that their content only be shown to signed-in users.
Huh. I guess that's a feature Bluesky offers. TIL.
It was just added recently, like within a week or so. At least it's the users choice unlike Twitter.

I mean, he's obviously just staring at his phone, but if this had been Biden then they'd have been calling him Sleepy Joe in all the headlines. :|

Let's hope the coke and the ketamine are doing their jobs in Muskrat's body and brain.
This is pure bullshit. You can’t just make claims like this. Donald is resting his neck and eyelids from all the ass kicking he is doing. It’s exhausting Making America Great Again while fending off Musk’s attempts to top him every time he tales an impromptu nap.

Hes doing exactly what he wanted to do as president.
He's just diddling his phone, writing some stupid shit in all caps on his stupid social network.
