Looks like we're ... oh ... I'ma say ... roughly 2000 lbs shy on the whole 'ton of cocaine' part of the experiment.

Lacking the necessary reagents, if you will.



But hey, if you're coming down to Arizona ... ya never know ...

It lacks the panache of 'a ton of cocaine' ... but it's almost surely more practical under these circumstances.

Plus we can't leave any stone unturned in this crisis, and this research isn't just going to do itself!

That is the abbreviation for the "Incoherency Virus Intensity 100."

It hides in Trump's throat and is expelled when he speaks. Unfortunately it reproduces so rapidly that he expels the same amount of it every time he opens his mouth.
