Why doesn't anyone ever ask the obvious questions about Trump based on his public behavior???

His public behavior is clear to many who have been around Alcoholics (and or cocaine/speed which goes well with alcohol!)

Have the people of America never been around any raving practicing Alcoholics before? (and cocaine/speed users)
He and his enablers say he doesn't drink or do drugs... based on what evidence???? His Word???

He says he doesn't have a drinking problem... He says! My lying eyes disagree!
I have been around plenty of Alchy's and NONE of them ever have a drinking problem ever! Many of them say they don't drink! And those who have quit, only quit for that day they decide they have quit! lol

We witness Trump thinking as an Alcoholic, his behavior is right out of Alcohol playbook right down to his weird relationships (Ivanka) and marriages, his bluster, raving and attention span! Who do we believe about this? Are our eyes lying?

If the guy and his family lie about everything why do we believe he isn't drunk on his ass at 3am?

I guess, so far, we only have his word to accept for his being a teetotler.

I wonder if that "virgin" bloody Mary is ordered with a wink and a nod to the favorite bartender.

That also explains his behavior.

Narcissists tend to be reckless and impulsive.

He doesn't need alcohol to behave like that; he's a textbook case of narcissistic personality disorder. Which is another way of saying he's a yuuge asshole.

I don't understand why everyone believes what he says when he says he doesn't drink.

His brother died from alcoholism.

He should see a doctor, a real one. Maybe might be afraid the press will follow him and find out what's wrong with him. Not seeing a doctor will only allow the condition free reign in his body.

I'd like to hear some doctors weigh in on his looks and possible illness.

But Roy COHN is a whole other Pandora's box of questions that might be asked. But then, perhaps there's a "connection" in his devotion to BANNON, a BREITBART "connection"!1
