Mostly, the reaction of his people standing behind him. They talk louder than normal hoping to keep him awake. They glance at each other, to acknowledge if each is seeing seeing what they are all seeing. The uncomfortable body language of each of them. The coal mine executive standing directly behind him with a puzzled look on his face as if to say, "what do I do if he falls in the floor?"
How could we have ever known?
Yes, how?

The reaction would be worth a million dollars.

(3,178 posts)I saw this on the TV when I was going to lunch. I assumed this was cherry-picking of a bad video moment. But it was actually live coverage. The MFer was f-ing asleep in his chair, and everybody else just carried on. I couldn't hear the dialog.
And what is up with him being seated in all of these photo ops? Are they afraid he do a face plant on the carpet if he is standing up?
Why don't these morons pre-record these events so they can get the cameras off Trump while he is nodding off?
