‘Don Jr. is on coke’: Trump’s son says people mistake ‘impassioned speech’ for drug habit

Donald Trump Jr., son of the former president, complained this week that people often accuse him of having a cocaine habit instead of focusing on President Joe Biden’s son Hunter.

During a rant on his Triggered podcast on Monday, Trump said that people suggest he’s on cocaine after seeing his political speeches.

“I’ve been blessed beyond belief in this country,” Trump told Kash Patel. “I got thrown into politics in my late 30s, and all the sudden, it’s like, hey, I just actually believe this stuff. I will more than happily fight for it.”

“It would have been a lot easier to shut the hell up and be a real estate developer,” he continued. “It’s so important to be in that fight. But I look at what they called me: a traitor. Adam Schiff wanted to try me for treason. You know, a crime punishable by death.”

Trump accused Hunter Biden of taking “a billion from China” and laundering money.

“And it’s like, he’s an upstanding human being!” Trump exclaimed. “And then I give an impassioned speech, and they’re like, ‘Oh, Don Jr. is on coke!'”

Scott Jennings brutally fact-checked while claiming Trump lowered gas prices



Conservative CNN pundit Scott Jennings was quickly fact-checked as he tried to convince panelists that Trump has lowered gas prices.

During an appearance on a panel hosted by CNN anchor Abby Phillip, Jennings flatly stated that "gas is lower today than when he took office," referring to Trump.

"No, it's not," Phillip shot back. She had to repeat herself as Jennings continued trying to make the assertion.

Jennings was responding to comments by Democratic political strategist Neera Tanden, who was also a Biden White House advisor. Tanden pointed out that the price of oil and gas had gone up.

"What's the price of gas today, do you know?" Jennings asked. When Tanden gave estimates for a barrel of oil at $78 and gas at $4.30 per gallon, Jennings responded, "And what's the price of gas under Joe Biden?" and asked Tanden if she ever talked about oil and gas prices when Biden was president.

"Scott, that's actually not the question," Phillip intervened, which is when Jennings made his claim about gas now being lower since Trump took office. Meanwhile, Tanden said that gas was $3.20 a gallon under Biden.

"Gas is not lower today than when Trump took office, and it's not lower today than it was before Trump started the war" with Iran, Phillip said, continuing her point.

"So look, you can dismiss the gas thing, but it's a real thing that people are going to the gas pump, filling up their tank, and it's costing them 70 bucks," Phillip said.
