President Donald Trump, 79, appeared to struggle to stay awake during his inaugural meeting of the 'Board of Peace' in Washington, DC. Cameras captured him with his eyes closed for extended periods as world leaders spoke, including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The president, who rambled for over 45 minutes before sitting down, jolted upright when applause erupted during speeches.

This incident, part of a pattern of public dozing, follows his claim that he only closed his eyes because events were 'pretty boring' during a previous Cabinet meeting. Critics question his cognitive fitness, especially given his declaration that the Board of Peace was the 'most consequential board' ever convened. The president's habit of closing his eyes mid-meeting, followed by late-night social media posts, fuels concerns about his ability to lead.
