Donald Trump 'Doesn't Sleep' and Wakes Staffers in Middle of the Night

Donald Trump's own staffers admitted the president is always awake.
Just last month, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller's wife, Katie Miller, joked about Trump's restlessness during an appearance on The Ingraham Angle.
"The president doesn’t sleep, so why does [Stephen] need to?" she quipped.
In response, the news show's host, Laura Ingraham, added, "Yeah, exactly. He just stands over him on Air Force One and says, 'Stephen, are you awake?' 'Why would I be awake, sir? I'm not, it's the middle of the night.'"
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard also mentioned Trump's odd sleep patterns in October, calling the president "absolutely tireless."
