WASHINGTON, DC: Regarding the court drawings and allegations of Donald Trump dozing off during the Stormy Daniel hush money criminal trial, the former president is supposedly at his breaking point, as per RadarOnline.com.

Notably, the former president called the proceedings an "assault on America," but he told reporters he was "very proud to be there" before entering the courtroom on Monday, April 15.

However, according to reports, Trump has reached the peak of his anger about the trial after a week of headlines detailing its specifics.

Interestingly, Rolling Stone claims that the likely Republican presidential candidate in 2024 becomes enraged "very easily" and lets that fury dictate his choices in politics, the law, and policy.

New York Times reporter Maggie Habermann wrote and discussed Trump's tendency to doze off in court, which is among the alleged subjects on Trump's list of grievances over the past five days.

Habermann informed CNN, "He appeared to be asleep ... He didn’t pay attention to a note his lawyer passed him. His jaw kept falling on his chest, and his mouth kept going slack."

As the week progressed, the ex-president reportedly dozed off once again, despite his team refuting the accusation as "100% fake news coming from 'journalists' who weren't even in the courtroom."

On Friday, April 19, Haberman remarked, "Trump appears to have fallen asleep in court again. His eyes were closed for extended periods and his head dropped down twice."

Judge Juan Merchan scheduled Trump's criminal trial to begin on April 15, which would make it the first criminal prosecution of a former American president. Trump was charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records last year, which prosecutors say was an effort to hide a potential sex scandal, both before and after the 2016 election.

Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said, "None of these sources know what the hell they’re talking about and clearly have no access to any type of factual information. These are the types of losers who will try to peddle fantasy as fact because they live miserable existences."

Sources also informed the outlet that the former president questioned associates about whether they thought the courtroom sketch artist was intentionally trying to portray him in a negative light.

As the images circulated widely on social media, he reportedly remarked on the sketches, suggesting that the artist was mocking him. One of the sketches depicted Trump reclining in his chair, eyes closed, with relaxed lips, while one of his attorneys cast a sideways glance at their client.

Internet trolls Trump for raging over a sketch of him falling asleep during trial

Several internet users trolled Donald Trump as the former President rages over a court sketch of him falling asleep during the trial.

A user wrote on social media platform X, "Sounds like Trump's ego can't handle a little artistic interpretation," while one added, "Tromp's more concerned with sketches than the actual case. Priorities, anyone?" [sic]



 



 

A user also wrote, "He figured if there aren’t cameras, he can let his guard down. Too bad! If you sleep, you will be sketched sleeping. He should be lord worried about being fartman!" whereas one mentioned, "Now Trump gets to feel the fury we felt during his four+ years in the White House."



 



 

A person added, "Maybe it's time for a reality check?"

Another wrote, "Trump's courtroom drama seems like a real snooze fest. But hey, if he can't handle the heat of the sketch artist's pen, maybe he shouldn't be in the courtroom at all."
