Supposedly that's what he snorted on the set of The Apprentice to keep himself focused. I know, he says that he doesn't drink and do drugs, but...he also said he didn't cheat on Melania with Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.

Not that I’m ruling out drugs. But he is doing what he always does when he’s trying to get out of a jam.

He's so weak he can't give a speech without snorting his Adderall. It stuffs up his nose, making him breathe loudly, often accompanied by sniffling.

The effect of the snort had not kicked in fully. Wonder if he is piggy backing a Inhaler and took a extra hit. Noticed the Slurring effect would happen when my Sis in Law took a extra pull .

he doesn't believe any of it, and it's killing him to read it. He espouses hate and when he reads the opposite of hate, it affects his demeanor and breathing loudly is part of his physical response. JMHO.

Comforter-in-Chief, what a joke.

So the mentally ill become the patsy and fall-guy for mass shootings with the emphasis that they be involuntarily confined where they will see no lawyer or judge. It's the tool dictators do to subdue their opposition.

Besides, he wouldn't be rosy-cheeked. He'd be pale or blueish from the inability of his heart to pump oxygenated blood to his body. He very well might have cardiovascular issues. I'd be surprised if he didn't, actually. But, personally, I think the sniffing is more of him gasping for air. There's nowhere for his lungs to expand under all that weight.

Something on his Wheaties when he is swinging out of control. They have to let him out of his padded cell to speak to his people but don’t dare let him go unmedicated. Or they’ve convinced him it is a new higher octane Viagra. So he snorts it down without a second thought. Imagine him without anything to moderate his baser instincts?? 😳

He was doing something he really, really didn't want to do and saying things he didn't believe, which created stress. He's also fat and out of shape, which didn't help.
