‘That Is Just So Perfect Donald Trump’: George Conway and Jen Psaki Mock Ex-President’s Denial He’s Been Sleeping in Court
Donald Trump denied multiple reports he’s been falling asleep in court, but Jen Psaki and George Conway aren’t buying it.
The former president has reportedly been snoozing periodically throughout his criminal trial in New York, where he has pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. On Thursday, Trump denied those reports.
Hours later on Inside with Jen Psaki on MSNBC, the host read Trump’s explanation.
“I have been wondering all day what you thought of this Trump post,” Psaki said to Conway.
“Contrary to the FAKE NEWS MEDIA, I don’t fall asleep during the Crooked D.A.’s Witch Hunt, especially not today,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “I simply close my beautiful blue eyes, sometimes, listen intensely, and take it ALL in!!!”
“That is just so perfect Donald Trump,” Conway replied. “His reputation really has been in the past that he’s Sleepy Donald. I’ve talked to people – journalists – who interviewed him, wrote books about him back in the day and he never showed up in the office at Trump Tower before 11:00 a.m. or rarely ever, apparently. And we know what he did at the White House. He was not there in the morning. He wasn’t an early riser to read his important briefing books. This is rough on him. He’s got to get up early every morning.”
“Not as much Diet Coke,” Psaki replied.
After court adjourned on Thursday, Trump once again slammed his prosecution and answered questions from reporters while falsely claiming he is not allowed to testify in his defense.
