Trump may be napping during his trial, but a few weeks in court may be better than time spent on the campaign trail.

So far, Donald Trump's criminal trial has been a snoozer, even for him. The best part to come out of the first days of the Manhattan drama is the courtroom sketch by artist Jane Rosenberg of the big man nodding off like grandpa watching 'Gunsmoke' reruns. Trump appeared to fall asleep again on Tuesday, prompting Law360 reporter Frank G. Runyeon to post this real-time blow-by-blow of the action, like it was Caitlin Clark in the final minutes of her college career.

Me: I almost wonder if the trial doesn't reach a larger audience than a campaign stop because we're not covering his campaign the way we did in 2016 and 2020, where you actually saw his speeches, or parts of them, on the nightly news. And so I wonder if this doesn't reach a broader audience? Fleishman: That's a distinct possibility. There's not a lot of people in America who are undecided at this point of who they're going to vote for.
