As one former senior administration official puts it: “You try working for him and not chasing pills with alcohol.”
Have you tried having integrity and not working for him though?
I remember reading articles during the dark ages about Trump staffers complaining that no one wanted to date them on Tinder because they worked for Trump.
Same energy
The federal government still needs to function, or a lot of people will suffer. Many people felt it was their duty to continue to do their best for the American people, even though they didn’t agree with the senior leader.
Not on this much Meth, no.
But that would require self discipline - ain’t nobody got time for that

The media - or coroporate news, to be specific - not only failed spectacularly, they absolutely sold their souls and everyone else down the river in a truly astonishing display of cowardice and greed.
I’m not saying the pizza shop owner has to take on the mob, I’m saying every single outlet joined in in supporting Trump at every level, even when they supposedly ran “anti-trump” stories. Their weaselly phrasing and mealy-mouthed spin - for years - was (AND IS) disgusting.
Not just that, imagine when Don Jr. found out he could go to the White House and get a prescription alternative to cocaine whenever he felt like it…
There wasn’t much the medical unit staffers could do, even if they wanted to hold the line. Several told Pentagon investigators “they feared they would receive negative work assignments or be “fired” if they spoke out.
To any future poor bastards unfortunate enough to work for trump in any capacity, I offer the following: GET OUT. Science has proven, again and again ad nauseum, the guy is a demented rapist shitbag who is absolutley hell-bent on crime. Don’t be stupid.
And sure as fuck do not use an official White House-supplied therapist while you’re there.
I have seen people during the Trump administration that were proud to get fired. I am not saying that I don’t get it, but I respect those people more.
Dr. Ronny Jackson “would come around Air Force One asking Donald Trump’s senior staff if they needed anything. This included Provigil and [the sleep aid] Ambien, and he would hand them out, typically in the form of packets with two or three pills in them. . . . On a trip to Argentina in March 2016, one of those reports notes, Jackson’s “intoxicated behavior in the middle of the night, pounding on [a female subordinate’s] hotel room door, screaming, yelling, and overall loud behavior in his hotel room exhibited less than exemplary workplace conduct while on official travel to provide medical care for the President.” The Pentagon interviewed 60 of Jackson’s former subordinates; 56 “experienced, saw, or heard about [him] yelling, screaming, cursing, or belittling subordinates.” During a six-week stretch in 2018, a Defense Department hotline received 12 complaints” about Jackson.
That’s current Texas representative Ronny “coked to the gills” Jackson, making those keen decisions for the people of Texas.

Trump’s second term would bring back Pervitin
They’ve already got the bunker
I’ll say this: Adolf Hitler had his foibles, but at least you know he wouldn’t have needed a YouTube tutorial to blow his own brains out
Could not even write that with a straight face
No bone spurs for him, either, he eagerly served in WWI.
Trump: literally worse than Hitler.
As despicable as Hitler was, at least he passionately believed in something other than himself. Conviction tempered with enough crazy led him to start an ambitious campaign of regional/global domination.
I can’t confirm Trump’s biggest ambitions, but he certainly appears as if he’s desperate to avoid jail and keep creeping on his own daughter.
Hmmm… I’m trying to guess which government you’re talking about. What connected dots are you seeing that I can Nazi?
That’s the most likely one, but the truly sad part is it could have been plenty of others.
Concentration camps? On American soil??? FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS???
Sounds about right…
It’s not manifest destiny without the manifest. Or the destiny. Am I right?
It turns out the manifests were the destinies we made along the way
Or else the destinies were the manifests we made along the way.
Just one? I feel like there must be several. Nixon admin I am guessing. Third Reich probably…
Jeez… even their addictions were trashy.
OUR INTEREST IN THIS STORY was sparked, in part, by a handwritten ledger reprinted on page 14 of the January inspector general’s report: a tracking form for the controlled substances ordered by the White House Medical Unit. In addition to the thousands of pills of Ambien and Provigil listed are even more potent sedatives and pain pills: morphine, hydrocodone, diazepam and lorazepam (better known by their brand names, Valium and Ativan), fentanyl, and even ketamine.
. . . But as the handwritten ledger shows — and our sources confirm — the medical unit’s procedures had grown so sloppy, so lax, that it’s impossible to prove the negative, that these sedatives and dissociatives weren’t given to White House staff.
. . . That might sound like minor errors in paperwork. They’re not. They’re the kind of transgressions that turn patients into addicts, and doctors into ex-doctors. “If you’re sloppy even a little bit with controlled substances, you’ll lose your [medical] license,” one source notes. Without proper record keeping, there’s no way to say just how much of the Trump White House was on drugs. There’s no way to tell how they might use — and abuse — prescription medications if they come back to power. “Nothing is written down,” another source says of the unit’s drug distribution during the Trump years, “because we will always get to yes.”
We’ve heard about Republican’s drug use before, from a Republican to boot.
What is it with fascism and amphetamines?
You know the knives are out when Rolling Stone is whining about drug use.

Ketamine.
Honestly not surprising given how dysfunctional it was
And adult nappies.
