Trump calls for drug testing of the candidates before the next debate

(For once I agree with him--we need to find out just what is causing all that sniffing he does during debates):

Donald Trump says that both candidates should take a drug test before the third and final presidential debate during a rally in New Hampshire, CNN reports.

Said Trump: “I think we should take a drug test prior to the debate. I think we should. Why don’t we do that? We should take a drug test. Because I don’t know what’s going on with her, but at the beginning of her last debate she was all pumped up at the beginning and at the end it was like, uh, take me down.”

Cocaine leaves the system within days, so he can piss clean, then snort up before he goes onstage.

Throw him that little wrench and see if he takes it to the forehead.

As for Hillary being energized and then tired...natural adrenaline is typical at the beginning of a performance, and it does go away after a while.

I've done theater that required 90 minutes + of unbroken stage time. It's not as hard when you are used to it, and one is running on and off in a high-energy production, but standing for long periods with low energy saps it away the quickest.

Plus you think you're interesting to listen to, Don?
