Donald Trump sleep schedule questions have drawn fresh attention after Vice President JD Vance described late-night calls from the president. Vance made the comments during a 15 September 2026 interview on the All-In podcast, saying Trump sleeps less than anyone he has met and sometimes calls senior officials around 2:30am.
The remarks emerged days after viewers questioned whether Trump appeared tired during the Pentagon's 9/11 observance on 11 September. The White House rejected claims that he was asleep during the ceremony. Public schedule records show Trump returned to the White House from Dallas at about 2:32am that morning.
