President Donald Trump’s sleep schedule is truly abnormal, and he seems to be becoming more erratic because of it, according to a new analysis. The Daily Beast reported on Sunday that Trump was up at all hours of the night posting on Truth Social on at least 80% of the nights in April. There were only five days in April when the president didn’t post between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m., according to the report, which raises concerns about Trump’s brain health and his increasingly erratic behavior. The analysis concluded that Trump appears to get about three hours of sleep per night, which is much less than what doctors and sleep experts recommend. Joanna Coles, the Daily Beast’s chief content officer, and Hugh Dougherty, the outlet’s executive editor, discussed the report on a new episode of “The Daily Beast Podcast” on Sunday. Coles said the report suggests Trump is “having anxiety in the middle of the night.” Dougherty added that Trump’s sleep habits may be related to his increasingly erratic decision-making, such as his decision to institute a counter blockade in response to Iran’s efforts to shut down the Strait of Hormuz. “I think this week has been very in line with the forecast about his decision making, and the erratic nature of what he does appears most obviously in … the war in Iran, and this bizarre blockade aftermath is all about erratic decision making,” Dougherty said. Trump is not the only world leader to operate on short sleep. Margaret Thatcher slept for between four and five hours a night, according to Dougherty, which could explain why she seemed so “out of touch” at the end of her reign as U.K. Prime Minister.
