Boy Who Was Bullied For Having the Last Name 'Trump' Was Caught Sleeping During Trump's Speech, and Now Everyone's Making the Same Joke

Same, kid. Same.

Make us preferred on Google

At one hour and 22 minutes, President Donald Trump's State of the Union address on Tuesday night was shorter than only Bill Clinton's address in 2000 (one hour and 29 minutes). However, Trump didn't exactly say anything new. The President hit all of his usual talking points—the so-called crisis at the southern border, the employment rate, tariffs—so after the 60 minute mark, things started to get tedious.

That's when Joshua Trump—the sixth grader who went as First Lady Melania Trump's guest after being bullied for his last name—did something most adults in the room likely wished they could do.


He passed out.

No one blamed the kid for his unplanned nap. In fact, most people could relate.

What's more, many thought the President would appreciate it for one simple reason.

As leaked schedules recently revealed, the President spent about 60% of his work days the last three months in unstructured "executive time."

Joshua Trump was only taking some executive time of his own.

Little Joshua didn't seem to miss too much. We only hope he was up in time for school.

During an appearance on Meet the Press, amid another development in the debacle surrounding the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, Louisiana Republican Senator John Kennedy shared his theory for why President Donald Trump has trouble dropping his conspiracies despite factual evidence to the contrary.

Conservatives Are Completely Melting Down Over A 2018 Anne Hathaway Speech About Equality—Because Of Course

Actor and rapper Awkwafina introduced Hathaway with a brief career highlight reel followed by Hathaway giving a short acceptance speech where she touched on historic power dynamics, where some hold unearned power and privilege over the minority or marginalized—something HRC works against.
