Trump blasts Biden for beach nap but critics remind ex-POTUS of snoozing in court during hush money trial
LANSING, MICHIGAN: Donald Trump slammed President Joe Biden while speaking at a Michigan rally, on Thursday, August 29.
The former president called out Biden for sleeping while on a holiday in Delaware, as reported by OK! Magazine.
“Do we have a president? He just got back from California. He was supposed to go to the White House, he never got there. He went to Delaware and he's laying on a beach sleeping all day long.,” the Republican presidential nominee said.

Donald Trump continued, “Who wants to sleep in public? He's sleeping. Do you think President Xi of China is at a beach sleeping? Do you think Kim Jong-Un is sleeping in North Korea with his nuclear weapons all over the place?”
“They don’t sleep so much. And we have a guy sleeping,” he added.

Still obsessed with Pres. Biden, a part of his brain refuses to believe that Biden is not running anymore, which is the part that is not fearful 😂😂 because all the other parts are terrifed of "The Prosecutor", so he keeps reverting 😂

Someone else said while posting Trump’s pictures inside the courtroom, “I know someone who sleeps in public.”
Hmmm ...sleeping on the beach, as opposed to sleeping in a courtroom when you're the one on trial.

The New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman reported in April that the 78-year-old politician “appeared to be asleep” on many occasions as the criminal trial on charges of falsifying business records progressed in court.
“His jaw kept falling on his chest and his mouth kept going slack. Now, sometimes people do fall asleep during court proceedings, but it's notable given the intensity of this morning,” Haberman added.
