Heroin, like cocaine and marijuana, seems to inspire an endless supply of monikers once the drug hits the streets. In case you needed a refresher, there’s “dope,” “smack,” “China white,” “brown sugar,” “Mexican mud,” “black tar,” “horse,” “snowball,” and “Big H,” just to name a few.

Florida law enforcement officials announced this week that there’s a new name for the deadly drug: “Donald Trump.”

After a six-month investigation into local drug dealing, the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office last month confiscated 5,500 heroin packages, some of which included an image of the president’s face and name, according to NBC affiliate WFLA.

It's 33 percent low-grade heroin, 33 percent cornstarch and 33 percent rat poison. It'll be like the drugs the Scarecrow was selling in The Dark Knight: "I said my compound would take you places. I never said they'd be places you wanted to go."

maybe they know something we don't. KellyAnne looks like she enjoys a line or snort or puff of anything one might put in front of her.
