His ‘Sleepy Joe’ nickname for his rival seems to have come full circle, with social media users now calling Mr Trump ‘Sleepy Don’

While the rest of the world can’t peel their eyes away as Donald Trump’s historic criminal trial gets under way in New York, the former president himself appears to be far less enthralled by the proceedings.

Jury selection got under way on Monday in the first-ever criminal trial of a sitting or former president, as he faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in a bid to cover up hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels.

But, according to some courtroom reporters, Mr Trump appeared to struggle to keep his eyes open – and at one point may have even fallen asleep.

“Trump appears to be sleeping. His head keeps dropping down and his mouth goes slack,” *New York Times *reporter Maggie Haberman reported.

The observation quickly inspired a new nickname for the 77-year-old former president: “Sleepy Don.”

      Maybe because the magnitude of your idiocy shook them out of their normal lane?

        I have a healthier comment history

        It could just be a coincidence your most recent comment was deleted…

        But it was really funny when I saw that.

        Have a nice life tho

      I’ve made friends (as in IRL; we hike, shared classes, and go to conventions together) with multiple people who post their own lewds online for money and attention.

      Reported as “stalking users/harrassment”, but I’m removing it because of misinformation. They do have other comments outside of porn communities.

      p.s. Public comments are public comments. It’s not “stalking” to look at another users comment history.

      The modlog is public as well.

        You’re right, I missed a few comments they made in this sub like this one:

        Anything that denigrates that troglodyte of a woman is fine by me. Poke all the fun you can. Fuck that stupid cunt.

        I didn’t mean to disparage such an upstanding member of this community.

          Oh, not defending them at all, their comments get removed all the time and they got banned from Gone Wild. But at least be honest in your disparagement. ;)
