Donald Trump: Great Holiday week! Trump’s post-Thanksgiving message leaves Americans scratching heads
In several photos and video clips, the president was seen closing his eyes as if he were about to fall asleep. The images spread widely on X, bringing the fun online. One user quipped, “I guess we’re celebrating Pearl Harbor Day for a week?” he said. Another noted: “Just because your brain is always off doesn’t mean the rest of us are on vacation.” A third said: “It was last week. Doesn’t he remember pardoning some turkeys last week and then his golf break took longer than usual?” while another jokingly asked, “Do I need to thaw another turkey?” he said.
Efforts to Continue the Meeting
Trump even tried to speed up the meeting by giving every Cabinet member a chance to speak, saying, “We’ll move forward quickly.” However, most authorities gave long presentations. While everyone was talking, cameras recorded the president trying to stay alert, occasionally closing his eyes or nodding in his chair.
Trump Defends His Resilience
This display of fatigue came shortly after Trump criticized a New York Times article assessing his schedule and stamina at age 79. Earlier in Tuesday’s session, he again condemned the story, claiming he was “smarter than I was 25 years ago.” He even spoke in the third person and said, “Trump is sharp, but not sharp,” referring to the newspaper.
White House Response
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt downplayed scenes of Trump being questioned, saying he “listened intently and conducted the entire marathon three-hour cabinet meeting.” He stated: “In all these historic meetings, the president and his incredible team underscore the extensive list of accomplishments they have accomplished on behalf of the American people to Make America Great Again.”
