Both Ben Wittes and George Conway have confessed to falling asleep during the proceedings of this trial. They don't think anything should be read into Trump's falling asleep. A lot of reporters dozed off during the questioning about details of the legal documents.

Trump's the defendant not part of the audience. I've had trouble staying awake as a juror during boring testimony and our judge nodded off at one point. That was a civil trial. In the criminal trial no one fell asleep, especially the defendant. He was riveted and consulting with his attorneys all the time. I could buy it maybe, if Trump fell asleep once or twice, but this is every day and multiple times a day. There's something going on. They either have him drugged, or he's sleep deprived, or it's part of his multiple cognitive issues.
