If you managed to make it through viewing Donald Trump’s speech in Saudi Arabia on Sunday (and no one could blame you if you avoided it completely), you would have noticed that at a couple of points in the address the alleged president slurred his words and also used the word “Islamic” instead of “Islamist” regarding religious extremism.
When the White House was asked for comment on the matter, they admitted that Trump had misspoken, blaming it on his being “exhausted” after the first leg of his first overseas trip, which now moves to Israel and Europe:

Exhausted? Granted, Trump is 70 years old, not in the best physical shape, and is known to be a big fan of fast food such as McDonald’s and Kentucky Fried Chicken. But isn’t this the very same hypocritical man who made fun of Hillary Clinton when she was diagnosed with pneumonia and had to take a few days of rest from the campaign? During one of the debates, Trump commented:
“She doesn’t have the look. She doesn’t have the stamina, I said she doesn’t have the stamina, and I don’t believe she does have the stamina.”
Yet here we have Trump exhausted after only one-third of his multi-nation itinerary has been completed. Sounds like age and lack of good conditioning have caught up with the Donald. He’s starting to appear very low energy. Twitter users had some thoughts on Trump’s exhaustion, too:
Dude, America has been exhausted for months ?

Ivanka just appeared on behalf of Trump because he's "exhausted." We're all working on the assumption he had to decamp to AF1 to poop yeah?

Maybe Donnie was able to take a nap while on the flight to Israel. Otherwise he might fall asleep at the Wailing Wall and bump his noggin. Donnie need a blankie, too? How about a sippy cup of apple juice? Ivanka will be here soon to tuck you in.
