“This is your brain on drugs”
Well, well, well. It appears that Donald Trump’s former staff, while he was president, indulged in some bad behavior, to put it mildly. Rolling Stone has a new report out. And if this report is to be believed, “up” and “down” could also be applied to what Trump staffers were gobbling up.
This report entitled “Trump’s White House was Awash in Speed” (nice) gets into the nitty-gritty about some of the “Wild West” behavior that was commonplace in Trump’s White House. Rolling Stone, who spoke to several former Trump staffers, reports that Speed was passed out often to staffers, and there was a lot of it to go around.
It would be given to those staffers who needed “an energy boost” as well as a “pick-me-up.” Those who worked late hours for the traitor received speed samples. Samples — How quaint.
But that is not the only drug. “It was kind of like the wild west. Whatever someone needs, we were going to fill this.” Charming. One non-stop happy pill party. Are we surprised? Xanax, mostly used for anxiety, was also reportedly a staple in Trump’s White House.
“During Trump’s presidency, two sources say, senior staffers would repeatedly down Xanax with alcohol.” How lovely to see that Trump’s staff was calm under pressure. (sarcasm) I do wonder if any Congressmen and Senators mingled at these parties. After all, where Trump goes, sycophantic Lindsey Graham types ALWAYS follow.
So, this may help to explain why nothing ever got done when Trump was in the White House. Some of the staff were far too busy indulging in (if this report is to be believed) some pretty serious vices to actually do any work.
As of the time of this writing, Trump’s team had not responded to email requests. Perhaps, if true, these staff members never did see all of the anti-drug commercials. And given that some of Trump’s staff were quite stupid or at least ACTED that way, I do believe the: “This is your brain on drugs” commercial suites them to a tee.
So to sum up — it seems the Trump White House was every bit as chaotic as we thought, only more so. Happy pills will do that to you. At least they’re not (shudder) still there. I cannot help but wonder if Faux non-News will comment on this story. Probably not.
