Donald Trump appeared to struggle to stay awake during a three-hour public meeting in Washington, D.C.
The event was the first session of his newly formed “Board of Peace,” focused on rebuilding efforts in Gaza. During parts of the meeting, cameras showed the president with his eyes closed and his head lowered, leading some observers to believe he briefly nodded off.
This is not the first time such moments have been noticed. In recent months, Trump has appeared drowsy at several public events, including press briefings and official ceremonies. Short video clips from those occasions have circulated widely online.
Supporters say long meetings can be tiring for anyone and argue that brief moments on camera do not tell the full story. Critics, however, question whether repeated incidents reflect fatigue during demanding public duties.
The White House has not commented directly on the latest footage. As always, public appearances by senior leaders are closely watched, and even small moments can quickly become national talking points.
