1/ THREAD: During Donald Trump's speech today he sniffed profusely. Seventy (70) times he sniffed *deeply* during the 9 minutes and 15-second speech. He sniffed mildly many additional times.
2/ Trump's sniffing is chronic — and it's been documented for years on audio and video. It was widely noted during all three of the 2016 Presidential Debates.
3/ And while chronic sniffing may have other causes, many people have suggested this sniffing is caused by drug abuse.
4/ There are multiple reports of Trump sniffing and abusing Adderall. Of course, there are many other drugs that may be abused in this manner and other people have made these other drug allegations for decades.
5/ Donald Trump's pupils were moderately dilated during his speech today (approximately 4.0 to 5.0 mm). At other times they are of normal diameter — but often they are WIDELY dilated (6.0 mm to 8.0 mm and even 9.0 mm).
6/ This pattern of bilateral, intermittent, widely dilated pupils is highly suggestive of drug abuse (Please see 2 other thread-links at the end of this thread).
7/ The accompanying image shows Trump in the midst of a deep inhaling/sniffing. He pulls his jaw backward allowing him to more effectively press his tongue against the roof of his mouth.
8/ This combination creates a smaller potential space by separating/closing off the back of the oral cavity — and thereby allowing more air to rush through the nasal cavity.
9/ In addition, Trump was also experiencing significant shortness of breath during this speech. This is separate and distinct from his deep sniffing.
10/ His shortness of breath may very well be caused by anxiety or possibly a side effect of drugs — and it also may have other medical etiologies such as heart disease or pulmonary disease. A combination of causes is also highly likely.
11/ Trump also mispronounced several words ("tolerited [sic] for tolerated", and "accomplimented [sic] for accomplishment").
12/ Of course, we all mispronounce occasionally. However, when we do mispronounce, we openly acknowledge the mistake and correct ourselves.
13/ Trump never recognizes a mistake openly — instead, he adlibs and restates the entire sentence using synonyms or repeating/trying to repeat the original mispronounced word.
14/ By repeating it, Trump is rationalizing both to himself and to his audience, as if to say, "See, I *can* (still) pronounce this word".
15/ SUMMARY: Trump's speech today is a further indication of his highly probable long-term drug abuse affecting his cognition and judgment.

18/ If Trump takes #Adderall, he must be taking it far in excess of normal dosages for his pupils to be as dilated as much as they are often.Such dosage will have significant side effects on CNS - impaired thinking, impaired judgment.Other drugs may be causing his dilated pupils.
