President Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 memorial ceremony.

The president dozed off at multiple points during the event Friday, slumped over in his chair with his eyes closed and his head hanging down while everyone else onstage—Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Melania Trump, and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice—was clearly awake.

As if "liking" a candidate is a requirement for voting for them.

I was neutral on Harris, supported her party, and loved her running mate. And most importantly, loathed and recognized the danger in the alternative.

Of course, it's just when you don't see anyone liking Harris, it's stupid to blame these people for the DNC picking an unpopular candidate. Unless a majority of US Lemmy users says they don't vote in primaries or something.
