Carrie Fisher Says Trump is ‘Absolutely’ a Coke Head After Sniffling Again at Second Debate

All hail Princess Leia!



Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher says that the recent comments Howard Dean made about Donald Trump might have some truth to them after all.

During Sunday night’s event in St. Louis, much of the Twitterverse noticed that Trump was sniffling into his microphone for the second debate in a row. Fisher was apparently watching the showdown, and the Princess Leia actress responded to a fan’s tweet about what she thinks are the cause for Trump’s sniffles.



The conversation is a throwback to some controversial remarks Howard Dean issued about Trump as he was getting mocked for his sniffling during the first debate. While some thought Trump had a cold, Dean raised several eyebrows after he floated the possibility that the mogul’s noises were a side effect of cocaine use.

doesn't even drink alcohol or coffee, but pictures don't lie. It was just another lie from the Master of deceit. That sucker is coking.

Having lived during the 70's and worked a few streets down from Studio 54. Some Executives talked about going there and all the coke that was available.

Of course, he would be dead using all these years, but maybe the pressure of running has started him again.

And he wants to throw young blackmen in prison for selling the same stuff he uses.

There is no doubt he uses drugs. Like most of these cocaine using marijuana smoking lawmakers who are complete hypocrites.

There is a double standard in this country. If you are rich and powerful you can do whatever drugs you want. But if I grow a plant I'm a criminal and deserve to have my home invaded by maskmen with machine guns wearing badges.

all that sniffing makes me think he even lied about that and he's using some kind of drugs.

And think about it:

1. He's getting high on his own supply.
2. He definitely underestimated the other guy's greed.
3. He lives in a giant mansion with his name on it.
4. He's pissed off just about everyone and everything.
5. I'm waiting for him to give the "you need people like me so you can point your finger and say that's the bad guy" speech.

He gets jazzed by the crowds at them. No need for a few lines.
