yeah. my first thought reading the OP is that this is nothing but a jab at the Elf. It's a Trump thing to do. The funny thing is, Trump fucking hates drugs and from everything that is known about him--public proclamations, you know--he advocates the death penalty for dealers and serious prison for users. His bro bro drank himself to death, and it seems to be the one lifelong commitment he has held: no booze, no alcohol. Anyone that touches it is a LooOOoOooser....and now, well, as POTUS: deserves death.
So, obviously, this isn't something he believes in--it is completely counter to the absolute one thing he seems to believe. He's doing it to shove a red-hot poker up his AG's ass, because Trump is such an adult. The best adult.
