People can’t believe their eyes after Trump appears to fall asleep during own military parade
Donald Trump’s 79th birthday coincided with a $45 million military parade celebrating the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary—but the event sparked controversy. As tanks rolled and thousands of soldiers marched, cameras caught the president appearing to doze off beside Melania Trump. Critics quickly mocked him online, with one tweeting, *”General Fatten orders a gazillion $ parade and falls asleep during it.”* Others questioned his stamina, arguing he’s *”too old”* for office.
Despite White House claims of 250,000 attendees, reports suggested a much smaller crowd, with social media users comparing the spectacle to a *”recruiting booth at Six Flags.”* Trump’s speech touted American military strength, but the lackluster turnout and his alleged nap overshadowed the celebration. The lavish parade, fulfilling a long-held Trump wish, instead became fodder for critics questioning its cost and purpose.
