On April 24, President Trump seemed to not off again during an oval office meeting on Thursday, April 23, 2026, while chatting with Farma execs about drug prices. CNN medical analyst Jonathan Reiner, who treated Vice President Cheney back in the day, posted the clip online and straight up recommended sleep apnea. Testing, saying it's a common fix for daytime drowsiness. This isn't the first time, folks have spotted him closing his eyes at speeches and even dozing in court during his New York trial last year. Reiner figures the White House docs have checked it out, but Trump keeps fighting sleep in public. Meanwhile, the team insists he's wide awake, just resting his eyes with his head back, like Chief of Staff Susie Wiles explained before. Trump's got other health stuff on record too, like poor leg circulation causing swollen ankles and hand bruises from aspirin and all those handshakes. Critics, including Congressman Jamie Raskin, are pushing for a full cognitive exam in a report to Congress.

As these talks heat up, especially with Trump once calling Biden's sleepy Joe, it raises real questions about transparency on the leader's health moving. I'm Cory with the story. That's your entertainment and celebrity news today update. AI powered and always trending.
