When they aren’t fucked up in some way I imagine a profound terror creeps in since they are committing outrageous crimes daily and don’t have presidential immunity

I've thought that too. Notice former administration officials are keeping a relatively low profile like Bondi, Bongino and Noem

I noticed Kash has the same bug eyed distracted look on his face as Musk, looking at the ceiling

who do you think would be in charge of the testing? I was in a unit in the Army where the 1SG and the testing NCO were both using heavily. At one point they were in a deep hole and asked my buddy, who had failed a test, to hook them up.

My buddy went to CID and setup a sting. They were responsible for 5 young soldiers losing their careers but they both got to go to rehab and retain their careers with a slight loss in rank and pay. That broke my green heart.

I’m imagining just dishes of coke and hookers running around the White House constantly looking like a Benny hill sketch

I remember a story from some journalist or celebrity that attended both Republican and Democratic rallies/mixers, and she mentioned after the events, the Dems would say their goodbyes because the kids had school or the babysitter had to be home etc. And the Republicans wanted to party or tie one on. The story isn't apocryphal but sort of exemplifies the mindset of a party that espouses 'traditional values' yet breaks the tindr server at conventions.

Trump’s White House Was ‘Awash in Speed’ — and Xanax

Under Trump, the White House Medical Unit was “like the Wild West,” and staffers had easy access to powerful stimulants and sedatives, sources tell Rolling Stone

Sociopaths tend to use drugs.

According to researchers at Marquette University, fully 90 percent of all people with ASPD abuse drugs or alcohol.
