The US president said that "sleepy Joe Biden" would go to a beach, lay down and sleep within minutes.
“The only thing I admired about sleepy Joe Biden is the following,” Trump told host Laura Ingraham during Tuesday's interview.

“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,” he added.
Further, Trump admitted that he could never fall asleep like Biden.
"I could never do that,” adding, “I would never be able to sleep like that. That’s the only thing that I think that was wonderful," he said.
However, while humorously praising him, Trump did not forget to criticise him and said, “It was a disaster, this man was a disaster.”

During his 2024 presidential campaign, Trump slammed Biden for going to the "beach all the time" and sleeping while wearing a swimsuit, according to a New York Post report.
“He goes to the beach all the time,” Trump said of Biden during his campaign rally last October. "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's sleep schedule
The US president started discussing his own sleep schedule, saying, "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," Trump said, adding “It was a disaster, this man was a disaster.”
He further said that he doesn't sleep much.
According to Dr. Ronny Jackson, Trump's White House physician during his first term, the president just got four to five hours of sleep.
“A lot of people that love what they are doing don’t sleep much, I find. And so far it’s been OK,” Trump told Ingraham. This is not the first time that he has mocked Biden for his ability to quickly fall asleep.
