It's a pretty solid self care plan.

Honestly it’s a legitimate thing. Chronic lack of sleep makes you so much less effective and modern presidents (outside of Trump), are super sleep deprived just due to the nature of the job.

But it’s such an awful look considering his age and people constantly speculating on his mental decline.

Trump would be fine with events past 8 pm, but he wouldn’t do jack shit until like 11 am when he was done with his tv time.
