In a surprising turn of events during the ongoing hush money criminal trial in New York, former President Donald Trump was reported to have dozed off during his first day in court, raising concerns of narcolepsy running in the family. The incident, as reported by The New York Times' Maggie Haberman, saw Trump appearing to nod off multiple times, with his mouth slack and his head drooping onto his chest.

Mary Trump, the former president's niece, expressed her concern about narcolepsy running in the family during an interview on "The Dean Obeidallah Show" on SiriusXM. In a clip highlighted by Mediaite, she jokingly mentioned her worries about the condition. Trump also shared her thoughts on her uncle's mental state, emphasizing the depth of his narcissistic injury during the trial.

According to Trump, her uncle finds himself in a situation where he has no control and is under the authority of someone else, which is problematic for him. She believes that the extent of the narcissistic injury cannot be underestimated.

The hush money trial, which started on Monday, marks the first criminal trial of an American president. Donald Trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection with reimbursements made to his former attorney, Michael Cohen. The reimbursements were related to payments made to an adult film actor totaling $130,000 prior to the 2016 election, aimed at silencing her alleged affair with Trump, which he denies.

After the second day of jury selection, the former president addressed the reimbursements, categorizing them as a "legal expense" while redirecting some blame towards his accountants. Trump claimed ignorance about the matter, stating that the expenses were marked down as such by the accountants. He expressed disbelief at being indicted over what he considered a valid legal expense.

The trial, which has garnered significant attention, continues to unfold, shedding light on the alleged financial activities surrounding the former president. As the stakes rise and tensions escalate, the world watches closely as the judicial process unfolds in this historic case.
