Footage shows Trump looking extremely drowsy at his inaugural “Board of Peace” meeting on Thursday at the U.S. Institute of Peace in Washington, D.C. His eyelids grew heavy during Major General Jasper Jeffers III’s presentation, and if he didn’t fall asleep completely, he at least looked incredibly disinterested in his own creation.

Bored of Peace.

Pretty sure that’s their slogan.

“The board of peace: bored of peace”

Drowsy Don: Bored of Peace

In the third video he’s definitely asleep. You can see him wake with a start when he hears the applause.

This is the least of the reasons why he should be removed from his position by the people who can do it. But it's a reason. They won't because they're benefiting (or hoping to benefit) from the shitshow.

He’s just THAT anti-woke.

Funniest comment

He’s an elderly man that isn’t up for the job. He should step down.

Treczoks@lemmy.world on 23 Feb 17:10 next collapse

Hard at work being anti-woke.

troyunrau@lemmy.ca on 23 Feb 17:17 next collapse

He’ll be bored. Then he’s dismantle it and keep the $1B ransom he got from each dictator to be a member, and claim it achieved all if its goals.

Or make Vance do the meetings

Why do we let people over retirement age be president?

Drusas@fedia.io on 23 Feb 20:34 next collapse

Careful--they'll just raise the retirement age.

Likely because people over the age of retirement do most of the voting.

But past that, its because our machinery of politics is too sclerotic to implement any kind of reforms that might inconvenience anyone in charge. Literally who would author the legislation? Who would vote for it? Who would sign it?

FFS, we’ve had both parties talking about Term Limits for 80 years running, with not terribly much to show for it. Only 17 states establish term limits for their state legislatures.

While the idea has some broad popular appeal, it rarely impacts anyone’s partisan voting pattern. If anything, the age of a candidate tends to improve their odds of winning election. Voters reflexively don’t trust people younger than them as representatives.. So campaigning as a young person promising to exclude older candidates can be a tough sell.

Because people should know better than to vote for them but they don’t.

He’s always asleep now. No idea if this is news from last week or if he was asleep again.

Sleep and don’t wake up. Just once.
