A "sleepy" looking Donald Trump has been mocked online after a video emerged of him appearing to attempt to throw a Tic Tac into his mouth - and missing.
The President could be seen offering a mint to Vice-President, JD Vance, first before pouring one onto his hand. Only to miss the target completely.
His second go proved successful, however, as the pair attended the funeral service for South Carolina senator Lindsey Graham at Washington National Cathedral on Tuesday (July 28).

Trump, who was sat on the front row, was also seen on the verge of dozing off at various points of the ceremony in a video shared to X.
"Sleepy Don Adventures," quipped author Sam Youseff in a caption on the social media platform. "After waking up from his nap, Trump tries to toss a Tic Tac into his mouth but misses on the first attempt."

Writing in response, one X user joked: "He can’t even eat them correctly…" A second person claimed: "Dude missed his mouth on the first attempt... if that was Biden it would be running on Fox 24/7 for a week."
In another tweet, a commentator theorised: "Trump was fast asleep and didn't hear a word." And another alleged: “Trump fell asleep at his funeral. And was popping Tic Tacs… What an embarrassment.”
Thankfully, the President seemed more awake when he spoke at the funeral. Trump described the late Graham as a "giant of the United States Senate" during his eulogy.
Graham had just returned from a trip to Kyiv, Ukraine, where he met with President Volodymyr Zelensky, when he died from an aortic dissection - a tear in the heart's main artery.
Paying tribute, Trump said: "He died doing the work he was born to do."
