Donald Trump was supposedly caught catching up on some sleep while in attendance at the military parade that was held for his 79th birthday.
In a joint celebration of the US Army's 250th anniversary and his own birthday, the American President was spotted dozing off.
An image shared on X shows Trump seemingly closing his eyes for a few moments during the proceedings.
One user commented on the image, saying: "All the resources, tax money, and logistics to put on this ridiculous display, and he still isn't happy? #MAGA will claim that he just had to take a wicked s--t or something."
Someone else wrote: "Trump at this military parade in DC like why the f- -k did I plan this event? Wake yo a- -up."
Another X user said: "Falling asleep again, on his Birthday. No this is not at Pope inauguration. The military parade that he desperately wanted, and Americans paid millions for... So disrespectful of the US Military. Disgrace."
The parade came as protests were held throughout the USA, with protestors holding "No Kings" signs in relation to Trump's authoritarian tendencies.
The slogan is also in retaliation to Trump referring to himself as a "King" on social media back in February.
It came after he halted New York City’s traffic congestion pricing system.
At the time he uploaded to his Truth Social platform: "Congestion pricing is dead. Manhattan, and all of New York, is saved. Long Live The King!"
