Donald Trump appeared to nod off during a solemn Memorial Day event honouring fallen soldiers on Monday, in a viral clip filmed in what looked to be a formal ceremony setting in the United States, prompting critics to accuse him of looking 'bored' and 'unfit for office' while supporters rushed to insist the president was merely squinting in the sun.
Memorial Day in the US is dedicated to service members who died in military action, and public figures are typically expected to project a certain level of formality and attentiveness.
