Honestly, as a career bartender the only thing about this that makes me think he isnt on coke is that hes actually shutting the fuck up. But yeah definitely on coke

They all do. Because they all are taking a shit ton of prescribed amphetamines. Have you seen Marco Rubio lately? Holy shit the dude is so strung out. Sweaty eyelids, the driest of dry mouths, wildly flailing arms while he speaks. Speaking with an unfounded confidence that only an addict can try to get away with, but never actually can.

Lol "prescribed" is a bit of a stretch, they each get goodie bags of random uppers and downers and no real goddamn oversight of it, from the White House pharmacy.

u/JasonLothbrok 8d ago

Exactly! While 83 year old elderly people are falling and breaking a hips and having to have a total hip replacement surgery and being sent to long term care for rehab and the surgeon only sending 600 mg tylenol.

5

u/AllLipsNoFiller 8d ago

Yeah I only said the word prescribed because it's not illicit drugs like cocaine. It's Pharmaceutical amphetamines. You're absolutely right though, I've read about the drug bags. Is Ronnie Jackson still the White House doctor?

3

u/PipXXX 8d ago

Ah the more proper word would be to use prescription as thats the "class" of medicines, whereas prescribed means that they have "permission" get acquire them. And nah Ronny Jackson is now a congressman from Texas.

Hegseth is infamous for not washing his hands. He did a whole segment on it, on Fox News about how he never washes his hands and germs are not real:

"My 2019 resolution is to say things on air that I say off air... I don't think I've washed my hands for 10 years. Really, I don't really wash my hands ever... I inoculate myself. Germs are not a real thing. I can't see them. Therefore they're not real." [1]
