Sleeping arrangements are different for everybody. Some like the fan on for white noise, while others like to listen to ASMR to drift off to sleep.

In case you missed it, biographer Michael Wolff spoke on a new Inside Trump’s Head podcast episode, specifically about Trump’s bedtime habits; and how they had to be put to an end.
