A video appearing to show Donald Trump falling asleep at a Memorial Day ceremony sparked outrage online. Social media users claimed Trump was dozing off, and furious that it could take place at a ceremony to honour fallen US military personnel, as Trump often attacks Joe Biden as "Sleepy Joe." Though the low-quality video is difficult to verify, it's reignited rumours about Trump's health, following his fourth health check since returning to office.
