For all his anger, Trump couldn't even stay awake:

Trump appears to have fallen asleep in court again. It happened several times just now. His eyes were closed for extended periods and his head dropped down twice.

Its by no means uncommon for people to nod off during court proceedings. Especially in the early stages like this, you'd be hard pressed to find any activity that's more boring. You're rarely engaged with, can't get up or play on your phone, don't understand anything that's being discussed and are stuck in the least interesting room in the world.

Though, you'd expect the goddamn president to be able to at least fake attentiveness. It's not like he's never had to sit through a boring briefing before. Fucking hell....

Court staff didn’t illustrate the documents so he could understand

Meanwhile I was enthralled with the updates every minute on CNN. I guess it's different when you're on trial.
