So Trump thinks drug addiction is a crime?

As he was ranting about how unfair it was Roger Stone to get the time he was getting, he stated murderers and and drug addicts do not get that amount of time...

Huh? Why would you mention drug addicts with murderers?
Just an odd statement IMO to put addicts on the same level as murderers.

right after he got out of rehab. Is that the only time he talked about any of that? I was under the impression that he only addressed the dug thing once. I thought that might have been part of his probation agreement or something.
