Is it possible to be a coke addict for that long and still be functional ? I'm honestly asking because I don't know. It seems to me that there has to be a flame out at some time. Or can one use it like like functional alchoholics can drink and still function ?
Maybe you need to take a look into Clinton's long history of character assassination and demagogical abuse. But all of this is off-point for the immediate topic of the conversation. Even in P&R there is an expected level of decency and civility expected in our on-line interactions. As outlined previously by the moderators - posters who: Continuously abuse other posters, Threaten other posters or third parties, Abuse the forum by endlessly re-posting the exact same material, or Post commercial advertising material without appropriate sponsorship will face action from the moderators/administrators. The best thing would be for posters in P&R to self-moderate themselves. It is alright to express abusive opinions of politicians, express disagreement of others views, be sarcastic or comedic ... but let's refrain from outright over-the-top direct abuse of other posters.
These are the last few weeks before the close of this campain. Few things I wonder : * did Trump expect all the scrutiny he is going through ? * did Trump expect that the thing he most bragged about ( 'groping' ) would come and take such an important place in his bid ? This election is really confirming my opinion that business people have no clue about how cunning politicians are! I wonder if the Democrats went through all the Republican potential, and actually 'chose" Trump as the best chance for Hillary! And then, as Trump said clearly he would send Hillary to jail if he was elected president, I am not even astonished that prosecutors are opening his files. What will be interesting is how Trump avoids the fallout. Hopefully he won't finish like some billionnaire in Europe who got ruined after a match with some very professional politicians, and went on television to beg for a government bailout saying that otherwise he'd just commit suicide. Business people have no clues about how cunning politicians can be.
You mean the way that Pastor Ted always spoke out against homosexuality? He sniffed throughout the entirety of both debates, which were spaced a couple of weeks apart. "We report, you decide."

Could someone be a recreational user over an extended period and remain functional? Yes. An addict? No, not with cocaine. once again the left over plays their hand. Depending on ones political persuasion there are plenty of reasons to dislike Trump. Supposed drug addiction ain't one of them. If you're shitty candidate wasn't so flawed herself this kind of desperation wouldn't be necessary
