President Donald Trump took a swipe at former President Joe Biden for “sleeping all the time” — despite being flamed just weeks ago by his own critics for seemingly nodding off on the job.

Images hit the internet earlier this month of Trump appearing to struggle to stay awake during a Nov. 6 meeting at the White House. In the photos, Trump can be seen closing his eyes and also covering them multiple times.

Trump has nonetheless repeatedly referred to Biden as “Sleepy Joe,” and brought up Biden’s sleep again during a meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Tuesday in the Oval Office.

“[The crown prince] does not sleep much, and I don’t sleep much. I think we have the same schedule,” Trump told a reporter who asked how the president manages his time.

Trump then saw an opportunity to insult his predecessor.

“And if you sleep a lot and you’re president — we just had one that slept more than any president,” he continued.

“He broke every record. He sleeps all the time, during the day, during the night, on the beach. The only guy could fall asleep on the beach with the press watching,” Trump said, seeming to reference a clip of Biden filmed while he was vacationing.

Trump added, “When you love your job, when you love your country, and when you’re in a position like we are, future king, highly respected, crown prince, and, in my case, president, you’re thinking about your country.”

Meanwhile, Trump, who is only three years younger than Biden, publicly made fun of Biden’s physique last month while hosting Argentine President Javier Milei at a White House meeting, bizarrely musing about which U.S. president is more prepared to show off their body on the beach.

Trump complained to his audience that “somebody told [Biden] he looked good in a bathing suit.”

“You won’t see me in a bathing suit sitting on a beach in Argentina, falling down, not being able to lift a 3-ounce chair meant for old people to lift,” he rambled, appearing to reference the New York Post’s July report claiming that Biden struggled to set up a beach chair while spending time with his family in Malibu, California, during Fourth of July weekend.
