      I think the amphetamines did that, but the sun certainly didn’t help.

        Are we still peddling the amphetamine addiction myth with literally no evidence?

        To borrow from the post, “think logically”: How could the single leakiest white house with a president whose only good decision for his health was sobriety, which is also linked to his only human moment of swearing off substances due to the death of a family member at the hands of addiction, possibly have kept that secret for four years in the WH and beyond?

          Yes. Because it’s funny.

          Unfortunately the WH medical unit failed to keep any records of where the mountains of modafinil were distributed, and it’s unknown how Dr Jackson ended up with the nickname ‘Candyman’, but sure I’m happy to concede there’s a possibility Trump was only surrounding himself with addicts while abstaining personally.

      I attribute it to him being so backed up with scalding shit that it’s filled the spaces between in meninges and replaced his CSF
