It’s because of the report that came out recently that showed trumps doctor was called “the candy man”, who handed out uppers and downers by the handfuls to White House staff.
I’m pretty sure this is fairly common for folks working in the White House, but apparently under Trump the drug usage was especially egregious
I wish my job had a doctor on staff handing out drugs...
Granted
Now everyone is on copious amounts of antidepressants.
From what I can tell, a lot of jobs are already like that. It's almost like society isn't designed to make people happy 😑
Explains a lot.

asdfasdfsadfasfasdfYou obviously didn’t read what you are responding to
But the report is from the pentagon

asdfasdfsadfasfasdfTrump is pretty well known for being sober
What? He shits himself because his bowel control is destroyed from all the coke he used to do.
It was sarcasm.
I'm not certain it was. He is indeed well known for abstaining from alcohol because of his brother, Fred Jr.
He was well known for abusing amphetamines, though.

asdfasdfsadfasfasdfTell that to his ketamine prescription.

asdfasdfsadfasfasdfThere's a Cinco de mayo (2016?) photo of trump in his home office where in the background is a drawer open containing a British allergy medication. A med that is illegal in the USA because it contains amphetamines. Suspicious at best
spoiler
asdfasdfsadfasfasdfAnd I believe that was circa 2015 or 2016. And drug abusers are kinda known for gradually escalating their usage
Just like his hero!
