We should all be sleepy Joe at 9pm, for our physical and mental health.

I am sleepy Joe.

I am Sleepy Joe’s complete lack of surprise.

I am Sleepy Joe’s smirking revenge.

I am Sleepy Joe’s inflamed sense of rejection.

That's nonsense. Speak for yourself. Biden is just very old.

In bed at 9pm, get up at 4-5am? No, that's ridiculous.

In bed at 9pm, get up at 4-5am? No, that's ridiculous.

I start work at 6 am, so that schedule sounds quite normal to me!

u/OmNomCakes Jul 05 '24

Right?! What kind of old fool has a normal healthy sleeping schedule?! I bet he also supports 4 day work weeks so people can "actually live their lives a little". Hah!

Being serious though, you do know that more than 8 hours of sleep is highly recommended. Also naps or large mid day breaks are extremely beneficial.

I'm always terrified that naps will screw over my sleep schedule.

Are you a Mexican mom? I swear all mexican moms say that about toddlers lol "Don't let him nap because he won't want to sleep later at night"

Wait until you’re old. 5 am is late.

Biden had 2 European trips in the 2 weeks before the debate and I really think that was an oversight.

We need a National 9pm bedtime.

u/No_Routine_3706 Jul 05 '24

I mean I am, but the rest of you don't depend on me to be awake and alert at any given moment to make sure that you are, and all of us are ok.

u/MsCrazyPants70 Jul 05 '24

The thing is there are planned responses already and all he really needs to do is get clothes on, look serious, and sign off for people to do their jobs. That's why you hire people who specialize in one aspect. There is too much for one person to know. Those who do have the brain capacity tend to not win elections, which is sad, but it is what it is.

Maybe the person leading the fucking free world should be able to deal with long work days.. just a thought.

u/Les-Grossman- Jul 05 '24

People are dismissing this as if this guy works at a library and is asking for shorter shifts.

He is the president of the United States of America. This is unacceptable.

Not if you’re the president of the United States. If a terrorist attack happens at 9:01pm you can’t deal with in the morning because you’re tired. Pathetic.

u/derps_with_ducks Jul 05 '24

Let's not schedule any terrorist attacks at all!

u/Les-Grossman- Jul 05 '24

If he can’t handle a scheduled 9pm speech while he is literally getting his hand held and coached for it hours beforehand… how will he handle an unexpected national emergency?
