The president has raged against reports that he is showing \u201csigns of fatigue\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cDoes this look like a man who is showing signs of fatigue?\u201d Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> asked the audience during his Tuesday monologue, before rolling footage of Donald Trump<\/a> appearing to doze off during a cabinet meeting at the White House earlier in the day. As various cabinet officials lauded the president and touted the administration, Trump seemingly struggled to keep his eyes open. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cTell us again how sleepy Joe is, will you?\u201d mocked Kimmel, who then remarked on Trump\u2019s furious social media spree the night before: \u201cOf course, he\u2019s tired. He was up all night posting when he wasn\u2019t sleeping.\u201d Across 160 posts on Truth Social, Trump managed to promote conspiracy theories, lament over his foes, and heap praise upon himself and first lady Melania Trump. \u201cDo you know how long you have to be on the toilet to post that much? I mean, what is he eating?\u201d joked Kimmel. \u201cI guess his little thumbs gave out and he came down the hall for another all-star cabinet meeting \u2014 Trump\u2019s hand picked orange-nosers gathered to pay tribute to dear leader and to suckle upon his ample teat.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter rolling more footage of Trump appearing to hold it together before his cabinet, Kimmel mockingly added, \u201cHe\u2019s doing great. Don\u2019t worry about him at all and his team\u2026 His team is crushing it.\u201d The late-night host then listed off a few of Trump\u2019s superstars: \u201cWe have twice baked RFK Jr., who is now embroiled in a sexy drug scandal with a reporter nearly 40 years his junior.
