A moment of somnolence for Trump at the side of Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince.
In Saudi Arabia
The start of this four-day trip to the Middle East is already looking like a tough one for the US President, who began his tour in Saudi Arabia, welcomed by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
An unexpected moment
As the two men sat and exchanged during a bilateral meeting at the Saudi royal palace, the cameras caught an unexpected moment.
For several minutes
Donald Trump appears drowsy for several minutes, visibly fighting sleep. This episode adds to a series of similar moments observed over the last few months.
Struggling to open his eyes
Images of the president, who turns 79 in June, on the verge of dozing off, his head sometimes falling forward, sometimes back, or struggling to open his eyes, quickly set social networks ablaze.
The irony
Many were quick to point out the irony of the scene, recalling that Trump once referred to Joe Biden as "Sleepy Joe".
A series of similar moments
For others, this episode is just one in a series of similar moments observed over the last few months.
At the Pope's funeral
Donald Trump has in fact been filmed dozing off at Pope Francis' funeral, at the Republican convention, during several of his judicial hearings, as well as at various cabinet meetings.
