A pharmaceutical executive collapsed in the Oval Office Thursday as members of the Trump administration were announcing a new deal for weight-loss medications.

The representative from one of the pharmaceutical companies was standing behind the president during the event when, suddenly, his knees buckled from underneath him.

And Trump just looks annoyed. I remember when this happened with Bernie, and at first he was startled by the sound, then when he realized what happened, he said “oh my god” and rushed over to aid the lady.

I don't think Trump is annoyed, I think he's trying to figure out what's going on. The man is utterly checked out. Seen the video of Japan's new PM guiding him around like a stoned toddler?
