Trump Nods Off As His Cabinet Turns Into ‘Adult Daycare’
President Trump’s marathon Cabinet session devolves into doodles, typos, third-person motivational speeches, and a boom-mic Q&A nobody asked for. Russell Vought is drawing Bob Ross landscapes, Pete Hegseth arrives as the “ssecretary of war,” and Trump tries to prove he’s “sharp” by saying “Trump is sharp.” The meeting ends with table-slapping, shoulder-thumping, and enough chaos to qualify as an office Christmas party gone horribly wrong.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!
