'Give him coloring book': Internet in splits as Jimmy Fallon mocks Trump's courtroom slumber with 'fake awake glasses' gag

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Donald Trump’s legal battles continue to capture attention, with his reported bouts of drowsiness during his hush money trial making headlines.

Jimmy Fallon, the host of the 'Tonight Show', has joined in on the mockery, offering a humorous solution to Trump’s apparent struggles and his nickname, “Sleepy Don.”

Jimmy Fallon's courtroom comedy: from 'fake awake glasses' to 'tie scarves'

During a recent episode of the 'Tonight Show', Fallon entertained his audience with quips about Trump’s courtroom antics. He jokingly suggested that Trump’s legal team had resorted to unconventional measures to keep him awake, such as slipping “fake awake glasses” on him.

In Fallon’s comedic portrayal, Trump defiantly claims, “I’m paying attention,” beneath the spoof spectacles.

The satirical commentary didn’t stop there. Fallon seized the opportunity to poke fun at Trump’s courtroom demeanor, likening his complaints about the temperature to those of a stereotypical elderly person fretting about drafts.

"Former President Trump was back in court today for his hush-money trial, and before entering the courtroom, he once again complained about the temperature and called it a 'freezing cold ice box.'"

With a humorous twist, Fallon imagined Trump bundling up his tie as a makeshift scarf in a bid to ward off the courtroom chill, "You could tell Trump was freezing today when he wrapped his tie around his neck like a scarf."

Not even Trump’s family members were spared from Fallon’s comedic jabs. He quipped about Eric Trump’s presence in court, humorously suggesting that it was “Take Your Kid to Court” day, complete with a sketch of Eric in attendance.

"I saw that today Eric actually attended the trial. -Ooh. I forgot to tell you guys. Today was Take Your Kid to Court Day. So it -- I should've said it earlier."

Fallon’s humor didn’t just stop at Eric’s presence; he even imagined the younger Trump requesting a caricature with exaggerated features.

"Here's a sketch of Eric in court. Yeah, and then Eric said to the sketch artist, 'Can you draw one of me riding a skateboard with buck teeth?'"
