 "‘I could never do that:’ Trump reveals ‘the only thing’ he admired about ‘sleepy’ Joe Biden")
US President Donald Trump has revealed “the only thing” he loves about his predecessor Joe Biden.
In a candid interview with Fox News, the GOP leader praised the former president’s ‘ability to fall asleep within minutes,’ while adding that he himself could never do that.
Talking to host Laura Ingraham, Trump said, “The only thing I admired about sleepy Joe Biden is the following.”
“He’d go to a beach, lay down on a cot – barely able to get his feet through the sand – he’d lay down and within minutes he’s sleeping and have cameras watching.”
Trump acknowledged: “I could never do that”.
“I would never be able to sleep like that. That’s the only thing that I think that was wonderful.”
“It was a disaster; this man was a disaster.”
Trump then talked about his own sleep schedule. The 47th claimed he “didn’t sleep much” and had sleep of only few hours a day.
Notably, his White House physician during the 2017-2020 term, Dr. Ronny Jackson, earlier revealed Trump would sleep only for four to five hours a day.
“He’s probably been like that his whole life. He’s just one of those people who just does not require a lot of sleep,” the doctor said in a 2018 interview.
Researchers say most people need seven to eight hours of sleep daily.
However, one to three percent of the population can function with much less. These individuals are called short sleepers—and Trump might be one of them.

During Biden’s time in the White House, Trump repeatedly called him “Sleepy Joe.” During the 2024 presidential campaign, Trump even criticised Biden for spending too much time at the beach and even sleeping in a swimsuit, according to the New York Post.
“Somebody told him he looks great in a bathing suit. Typically—typically—an 82-year-old man does not look great in a bathing suit. There may be a couple, but I’m not sure I’ve ever seen it,” Trump said in a rally last year.
