Why you need more than 4 hours' sleep to rule the world
Donald Trump gets by on four hours' sleep but what effect would that have on us?
One of the things we learnt from Donald Trump's doctor this week was that he only has four to five hours sleep a night.

As did Barack Obama - so were there repercussions for them?
