US President Donald Trump's reported sleep patterns, including claims he sleeps as little as four hours a night and appears to nod off at official events, have ignited a fresh and contentious debate over his health and fitness for office.
The discussion, amplified on social media and in traditional news outlets alike, centres on footage and commentary suggesting the 79-year-old president often fights sleep during official duties. This dynamic has fed speculation about his stamina, cognitive function and daily routine. Critics say the pattern merits scrutiny; allies insist it reflects an atypical but effective work ethic.
