Trump Appears to Doze Off During Cabinet Meeting

Off-camera: “Who were facing jail time over a fence line dispute that had been in their family for 130 years, we fixed that. A family, the Henry family in New Jersey, who were facing their farm being taken away for eminent domain to give to affordable housing, we fixed that.
