Let Lying Dogs Sleep

Creepy, Sleepy, And In Deepy

April 17, 2024

Sleepy Don was reportedly falling asleep on and off all day, starting in the morning, during Day 1 of jury selection in his first criminal trial for election interference in Manhattan. Trump’s behavior during Day 2 was no different. Luckily for Daydreaming Donald, there were no fishes for him to sleep with in the courtroom.

Naturally, Trump later claimed that he was just joking, that he was being sarcastic and that he was “only doing my very strong, very powerful Sleepy Joe Biden impression. Everyone knows this and everyone loves it. Just the other day, a big strong man came up to me, with tears in his eyes and he said ‘Sir, please do your Sleepy Joe Biden impression for me while you’re in court. It would mean so much.’ That’s all there is to it. Believe me. 

The old boy is going to have to double up on his puppy uppers to make it through what promises to be several weeks of jury selection, let alone the actual trial. I guess Low Energy Don wasn’t able to keep up his hourly doses of 5-Hour energy drinks while sitting in the courtroom, and he wasn’t able to keep snorting Adderall at the defense table. Judges probably frown on that sort of behavior.

Oddly enough, though almost everyone  has been mewling about how old and fragile Joe Biden is, and most of the Fascist/Trump Party knuckle-draggers won’t shut the fuck up about all the Biden crimes, there are no courtroom sketches of Joe Biden at the defense table – either asleep or awake.

Alternately, it is entirely possible that Trump’s legal team slipped a few doggie downers in his Whoppers to keep him from blowing up the case by being the arrogant, demented asshole we’ve all grown to know and despise. Anyone who has ever had the misfortune of watching Trump in action knows that he is at his best when he’s asleep. Either way, it will be difficult for Donnie Downers to mouth off about “Sleepy Joe” Biden on what’s left of his campaign trial…I mean, trail. Good luck dragging that fat fuck around the country trying to win over new voters.

Glenn Kirschner is a former U.S. Army prosecutor, and former assistant U.S. Attorney in the office of the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. Kirschner shared the following in a recent interview with Brian Tyler Cohen:

“Having litigated some very lengthy trials, I have seen all sorts of people fall asleep in the courtroom. I have seen jurors fall asleep…so it’s not that unusual. But the defendant falling asleep? We have kind of a saying, whenever anyone is being interrogated…after being taken into custody…the [interrogator] is going at them and going at them and then they’ll take a break and walk out. But the video recording keeps rolling so you can see the defendant sitting in the room. An innocent person who’s being interrogated will be alert, will be bouncing off the walls, but a guilty person, when they get that minute to take a break in the interrogation, they’ll fall asleep every time.”

Oops.

Donald Trump – Bull(shit)dozer

Then again, an innocent person probably would not be up rage-tweeting almost 24/7 because of all the guilt guilt. Even Trump, somewhere in there, beneath all the toxic artificial “hair” and skin treatments, beneath all the self-loathing, beneath his contempt for everyone else (except Ivanka),  beneath all the outward complete lack of self-awareness, beneath all the rage, racism, misogyny and unparalleled ignorance, beneath the Alzheimer’s, dementia and/or late-stage syphilis eating away at his congenitally-damaged brain, beneath all of that, some tiny little spark – even smaller than his tiny little hands, and his tiny whatever – knows he is a guilty-assed motherfucking piece of shit who deserves every bad thing hopefully coming his way. Other than that, he’s probably a pretty nice guy.

As I’ve always said, “Sir, let lying dogs sleep.”

With nearly half of the jury-plus-alternates now seated,
this could get interesting sooner than later

I. Mangrey reviving. Wide awake, baby.
