US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has brushed off suggestions that Donald Trump was regularly dozing off during cabinet meetings, as questions persist over the health of the oldest US president ever inaugurated.

Testifying during a congressional hearing, Mr Rubio was shown several video clips where Mr Trump, 79, is seen with his eyes apparently closed while Mr Rubio spoke beside him.

“I don’t even know how to respond to that, other than to tell you that it’s absurd and ridiculous,” Mr Rubio told the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

“You may not like his policies, you may not like the decisions he’s made. But I assure you, this is not a president that sleeps or is cognitively impaired in any way, shape, or form,” he said.

“And in fact is incredibly active, much more so in many cases than much younger people that are around him. Those are facts.”

No, no Marco you got that wrong. We love his policies and decisions.

Except where he nominates a JD Vance/Marco Rubio team for the 2028 election?

He’s dropping out then?
