PRESIDENT Joe Biden has been blasted for putting his head down at Jimmy Carter’s funeral as viewers think he’s falling asleep.

Social media users speculated that Biden dozed off after his wife, Jill Biden, was seen nudging him during the service.

The president, 82, even closed his eyes as he was surrounded by other politicians including Vice President Kamala Harris as well as Bill and Hillary Clinton.

“Is Biden asleep at Carter’s funeral??” one eagle-eyed viewer joked on X.

“Biden asleep on the job again,” another joked.

“How much sleep is Biden getting during this service,” another added.

All five recent presidents, George W. Bush, Clinton, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Biden were seated together at the funeral on Thursday to honor former President Carter, who died aged 100 on December 29.

Bush was seen leaning forward to speak to Biden and Harris multiple times as he checked on him.

Biden is set to give a eulogy at today’s service, leaving some viewers to speculate that he was simply looking down at his notes for the speech instead of closing his eyes altogether.

However, it appeared the president blatantly had his eyes closed.

It comes as Michelle Obama is also facing criticism for being the only living former first lady who’s not in attendance at the funeral.
