Trump - Drug use (Sudafed)
https://mobile.Twitter.com/jrehling/sta ... 58?lang=en
It’s worth the read. I recall reading somewhere that Trump was heavily using some sort of medication years ago that was akin to methamphetamine, and the side effects were manifesting through his behavior and communication. I’ll have to see if I can dig it up.
Anyway. I’m not sure if the picture is legit or not, but it reminds me of when that stripper... Stormy Daniels! was on 60 Minutes and her pupils were the size of dinner plates.

Re: Trump - Drug use (Sudafed)
The one thing that gives me pause is that Trump always seems to have the sniffles. Sudafed is a decongestant. But his age, obesity and body mass and stress levels would make him a great buy for heart attack futures.

When Trump is such a liar, why should we believe him that he doesn't do any substances?

He says he doesn't drink alcohol. I've never heard him say that he doesn't do any 'substances'.

Yeah hang on just a NY minute there. My eyes see one box of Sudafed. I cannot identify the remainder of packages in the drawer, can you? Do you see more than one box of Sudafed?
Yes, there are reports that he used Adderall in the past.
He's on 4 meds. A statin, daily aspirin, something for hair loss and an antibiotic to combat rosacea. You know the flushed face that some photogs tint orange? People are so gullible they don't compare photographs or put two (med) and two (condition) together. Look at the photo you posted the link to...does he look orange there? He's a fair skinned German with rosacea. His statin can also cause flushed face.
I know plenty of folks back East who take daily Sudafed for allergies. The humidity exacerbates allergies there.
If he's using Sudafed daily that probably accounts for his sniffling. It's a decongestant after all. If he were abusing Sudafed, his BP would likely be consistently elevated and I didn't see that it was high in his medical eval.

Yeah, that sniffling is a well known side effect of crushing and sniffing Adderall. Straight up speed, which, you know, 11,000 midnight tweets later start to make sense.

Both Adderall and Sudafed can cause sniffling. with regard to tweets in the wee hours, both Adderall and Sudafed can wire you. Adderall can actually have the opposite effect in some folks exacerbating brain fog.
Both medications, both, elevate blood pressure and heart rate. As I stated previously his annual physical doesn't show either symptom. Unless he knows the half life and cuts off whatever meds he might be taking prior to a physical.
In any case, I have to say I think this is really a non-issue. We don't know if he's abusing anything at all. I don't see any evidence of abuse. I see a guy with NPD doing what narcs do.
This reminds me of when folks were saying Hillary was on her last leg because she coughed so much. God forbid anyone have post nasal drip in allergy season.
I think the raising of this issue is largely beneath us and people need to get a grip.

It’s not beneath us to wonder why his pupils are dilated in glaring light?

Here he is at an Epstein party in ‘92:

His eyes do, in fact, have normal dilation under normal circumstances, except when not. Is our President ripped to the tits?

Re: Trump - Drug use (Sudafed)
Cam I have no idea when the first photo was taken. I would guess that the second photo might have been taken when he was throwing back Adderall.
In any case, I don't know. I'm using his annual physical as counter evidence however weak you may think that evidence is.
He's on the heart meds I mentioned. If he's knocking back Sudafed in extreme amounts he's counteracting his heart meds. Then again, we're talking about someone who takes his statin/aspirin and hogs down fast food as a chaser.
He's not particularly smart.

You know I looked at some photos of his eyes on Google Images. I can find a zillion images where his eyes do not appear to be dilated.
I think Ajax18 needs to comment on this.
