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?

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Good example for other migrant workers.

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

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 48 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I think we need to retire -gate. Watergate was a laughable nothing of a scandal compared to what the Trump regime does daily.

Why is a) He even in there? b) still wearing that stupid hat?

[–] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 111 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Doesn't want people to see his botched hair implants

B: It has become an even lamer version of the swastika armband.

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.

[–] Signtist@lemm.ee 64 points 1 week ago (2 children)

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.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 59 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I would dead ass rather roll the dice with your granddad

[–] sdfric88@lemmy.sdf.org 33 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I would rather roll the dice with my own granddad, and he's already dead

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)

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. 🤷

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

[–] nao@sh.itjust.works 35 points 1 week ago (6 children)

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?

I don't believe you - I believe he's looking at his phone. Show me the video.
