‘Expert’ Carrie Fisher says Trump’s sniffles are ‘ABSOLUTELY’ a sign of cocaine use

Quote
Carrie Fisher has a theory about why Donald Trump has been sniffling so much at the presidential debate.

Trump could once again be heard sniffling during the second presidential debate Sunday night, an encore of the sharp inhalation noises viewers noticed during the first presidential debate on Sep. 26. Fischer, of "Star Wars" fame, spent the night tweeting her reactions to the debate. Among her observations, Fisher responded to one fan's query about Trump's sniffling with an assertion that the noises were related to cocaine use.

"Tell me something about that sniffle…coke head or no?" asked the fan.

"I’m an expert & ABSOLUTELY," replied Fisher, adding the all-caps emphasis.

Dear Donald Trump: I played in the NFL. Here’s what we really talk about in the locker room.

Quote
Oh, sure, we had some dumb guys, and some guys I wouldn't want to hang out with on any sort of regular basis, but we never had anyone say anything as foul and demeaning as you did on that tape, and, hell, I played a couple years with a guy who later turned out to be a serial rapist. Even he never talked like that.

Quote
We talk about our fears that if a Hitler wannabe who can't even string together a coherent statement on domestic policy becomes president, what that might mean for those of us who are married to a member of a minority community, or are a member of a minority community, or have children going to schools where hopefully nobody screams racial epithets at them or tells them to go back to [insert foreign country they couldn't identify on a map here].

Quote
We talk about money. We talk about what other guys at our position are making, what our next contract might look like, and how much paying taxes each year sucks, since we're in the highest tax bracket and play in multiple states, requiring multiple filings. We talk about how all of us pay taxes, every year, and wonder what a presidential candidate might have to hide if he so stubbornly refuses to release his returns, what possible foreign debts might be lurking in that finance closet he so desperately holds shut with every ounce of his contemptible mental faculties.

The gov’t controlling Baghdad was stable when Bush left office. President Obama set out to change that, since the only think he hates more than American power and success, is a Republican success.

The surge worked. Obama and Hillary sabotaged the results out of spite.

That’s because, as I have recognized since at least May 2014 and Trump has understood since at least a month ago, Obama created ISIS, almost certainly deliberately. When Obama came into office, Bush left it with a stable government without civil war.

lmao at how they twisted that quote and the interview, just delicious and the comments on Breitbart  :delicious

Quote from: Glenn Beck
If the consequence of standing against Trump and for principles is indeed the election of Hillary Clinton, so be it. At least it is a moral, ethical choice
Quote from: Glenn Beck
I can’t do it [vote for Hillary], because she’s just — she’s just a horse of a different color. They’re both bad. I think under Hillary Clinton, the nation — most likely — can become just run by oligarchs. I think under Donald Trump, he’s so unstable, I wouldn’t put anything past him. I don’t know what our party looks like.
Quote from: The Blaze
So who is Beck voting for in November? Darrell Castle, an attorney from Memphis, Tennessee, and the Constitution Party’s presidential nominee.

Mighty_Mouse -Oct. 10, 2016 at 6:17pm
At least Trump goes by it honestly about who he is; Glenn Beck on the other hand has pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes. You know damn well he is going to pull the lever on Hillary. His disdain for Trump is personal. He is not thinking about America, nor does he care about America.

I have said this for months that Glenn Beck was slowly revealing who he really is and that he is putting his bruised ego and pride before the needs of this nation. IF Hillary is elected and the Tsunami of Ruin hits our shores – Beck and his 2%’er friends will be able to afford admission to the Ark that will keep them afloat, while we the upper-middle, middle, and lower-middle class people will be paying the price.

I’ve said for months that I had him figured out. He wants Clinton to win. If Trump were to win and our Nation actually recovered, and everything did get better – his Doom N Gloom business would go down the tubes.

I don’t blame Sean Hannity for stating that he doesn’t want to get with Beck after the election to unite. Who would want to unite with a person who is purposely attempting to sabotage a candidate who CAN stop Hillary; by producing these mass Anti-Trump articles? For example, the Hot-Mic Tape Overshadows Debate headline. What utter bulls-h-i-t! It didn’t overshadow anything. He turned Hillary into a mop and used her to wipe the floor.

My sub to TheBlaze remains cancelled knowing he is in bed with her. I will not patronize a business that accepts money from her.

OBAMANATIONOFDESOLATION -Oct. 10, 2016 at 7:23pm
The Founding Fathers would have voted for Trump. Hillary will stack the court will progressive judges that will redefine the second amendment, thereby neutering individual liberty. The founders would recognize this and vote for Trump with the hope that he nominates conservative judges as he said he would do. How do I know this? Because they compromised on their values to establish the Republic. Many of them were abolitionists but voted for slavery. They also worked from the inside, establishing the 3/5ths compromise. So Glenn, I ask you which is worse? 4 years of Trump or 100 years of slavery?

Oh, so don’t worry about her appointing up to FOUR Supreme Court justices? A 65 % estate tax and higher taxes on all your, and your childrens incomes. Not to mention al the Federal judges etc., and of course global warming and hillaryCare should really line their pockets… Someone said she already turned the Whitehouse into a Walmart.

You set up the laws, position yourself and reap the returns, just like what happened in Haiti. THANKS glenn.

So, Glenn, when Hillary wins, she’ll notify you where you need to go to register your guns. Then, she’ll tell you where to go to surrender them. Then, all will be good with the world, right?

mattcann -Oct. 10, 2016 at 6:23pm
Well, there is a cliche from an old movie to describe Glen’s comments re. voting for Hillary:
For me, this is “A Bridge Too Far…” I’m done with this lunatic completely and forever.
Why listen to anything Glen has to say when he demonstrates on a daily basis that he’s gone round the bend?
He should have done what Ted Cruz did. Swallow hard, and admit that anyone’s better than Hillary. But no, he such and egomaniac that he couldn’t do it. What a fool…
I loved Glen’s show on radio and TV for many years, but I just canceled my Blaze subscription. A very sad day.

I agree that it's pretty unlikely that a 70 year old dude is doing fat rails with any regularity. Wouldn't be surprised if he's taking some kind of amphetamine though, dude seems pretty addled, but he also might just be distinguished mentally-challenged.

The skinny coke user is a myth. I've lived in Miami and I've hung out with plenty of cats that enjoy them some nose candy. You have to be a complete fiend for it to start effecting your appetite. If you just use it recreationally your body composition is not going to be different.

With that said, Trump does not ever look coked out. The biggest tell is that their eyes are wide, wide open. Trump on the other hand looks like he's sedated.

There was a segment on CNN where they analyzed his body language and they said the sniffing is a subconscious tick of him trying to assert himself or something.

With the current structure of America +11 is a blowout. You won't see Reagan or FDR style blowouts anymore. The country is too partisan for that. There is too much media to confirm your bias. The current demographic voting patterns are too entrenched.

I don't even think it will be +11 in the final percentages of the vote. Even that's probably too much. I would guess maybe 7 or 8. Who cares either way. 4 more years of liberal federal judges and potential supreme court picks. Another bruising for the GOP at the presidential level. A more even congress and house.

Of course another beating in the 2 years at the mid-term but you take what you can get.

There is a sizable fraction of the Republican base who hate Trump and will try to primary Congressmen who supported him when mid-term elections roll around. Hell I think anyone after this election who takes the "loud and plainspoken" technique when giving speeches will incur comparisons to Trump. You have to consider that Hillary might win by the biggest margin in 30 years so that's going to widen the split in the Republican party that started back in 2010.

There's a lot of maybes and what-if scenarios to think about but I just don't see a conservative who refuses to vote for Trump willing to fill out a ballot in 2018 if the Republican candidate was a Trump supporter.

Best case scenario is Trump loses, holds a grudge against the GOP and then runs as an independent for the next several terms (however many he has left in him before he kicks the butcket), completely splintering the Republican party and ruining their chances of holding office for years to come.

If he can make money on it, bet he would.

If he could lose money on it, stiff his creditors with the bill, and then take the loss on his income taxes, I bet he would.

“I wanted to point something out, which is that Hillary Clinton expresses that she finds the language on that bus horrific, but in fact she likes language like this: quote, I came to slay, bitch, when he eff me good I take his ass to Red Lobster.”

“Did she say that?”

“That happens to be a line from Beyonce, her favorite performer, whom she says she idolizes and would like to imitate.”

Taking someone to Red Lobster for effing you good = rape. :doge
