(47,334 posts)At some point he had to be medicated so he would not carry on like this in the court room and be taken out n restraints.

(47,577 posts)He must know that he could eventually end up in prison, because he KNOWS he is guilty.
Hugin
(33,189 posts)Or hes reverting to his un-Adderall fueled unfit to serve state. I think its may be a show, too.
Irish_Dem
(47,334 posts)But being calm and appropriate is not his style.

He looked really tired as he was making his little speech at the Courthouse. I can't imagine he is sleeping well these days.
Think. Again.

Its terrifying how easily that comes to me.
PatSeg
(47,577 posts)He looks like crap......well for Trump anyway.
progressoid
(49,996 posts)He is a deeply damaged person mentally and psychologically. Sleepy Don can't even stay awake for his trial. He spends most of his life jacke dup on uppers, no way was he going to be able to sit for something like this without making a fool out of himself.

(33,384 posts)Plus the courtroom is likely too warm for suit-and-tie-wearing.
Plus, it's probably boring.

(1,231 posts)Courtrooms tend to run on the cool side because wearing a suit is the norm, not the exception, for both sexes.

(47,577 posts)with nervous eating. Of course, he is so big, it is hard to tell if he's gained or lost weight.
NanaCat
(1,231 posts)Most people taking a medication get only a few of them, or none. Some people might get weight loss. Some don't.
Someone getting all of a medication's potential side effects is the least likely outcome.
maxsolomon
(33,384 posts)He's slimming down somewhat.
CharleyDog
(758 posts)I'm sure that the Sick Pervert has a doctor to prescribe him the downers that alleviate his speed/cocaine symptoms. The TSF looks drug hungover, that is: sleepy, and disconnected.

Or tell me where I can look at this directly. I see now that there's no X.

(47,577 posts)Trump considers illness a weakness and is not likely to admit to it.
PortTack

(47,577 posts)He was contemplating deep thoughts.
Demobrat
(8,986 posts)If court starts at nine it means up at 7 to dress and put on his makeup. And he was probably up half the night raging. Hell perk up once the drugs kick in.
NanaCat
(1,231 posts)For him to get ready and make the drive over. It takes a long time to get that thing on his head installed.

(381 posts)According to the NY Courts website, sleeping
In the courtroom during a criminal trial is not permitted.No drinking is permitted. I presume that bottle of water would be allowed, but I doubt that Coke is permitted. 😴

(52,309 posts)I can see that for the audience or others not involved in the case. But these days, surely laptops and water or coffee is normal for the lawyers and defendant...?
Hugin
(33,189 posts)From experience, I can say every one of those restrictions in a public venue can be traced back to some sort of an incident. They arent arbitrary and we all live in a history of the results of people trying to outsmart the system.

Or theyll claim that Trump is showing contempt and disdain for the proceedings.

(2,197 posts)Trump stymied by refusal of any family members to die so he could get a day off to attend another funeral? All the sudden, he remembers he has a son who is not banned from doing business in NY? What school does the young man attend and when is graduation?

Sky Jewels
(7,133 posts)He can't walk down ramps without assistance, he's often winded, he's incontinent and craps his diapers in front of people, he garbles his words and can't spell or punctuate worth shit, his brain-to-mouth connection short circuits when he gives speeches, he has the classic dementia "leaning forward" posture, he was rushed to the hospital for a neurological evaluation when he was president, now he's falling asleep publicly.
Other than that, I can tell you, many people come up to him with tears in their eyes and say, "Sir, you are probably the healthiest male specimen in the world. You are physically perfect."
