    For a person who’s known to be on cocaine to the point his dad jokes about it on Rogan, no. This is a thing people who take cocaine do with cocaine.

    If someone put a gun to my head and asked me to think of excuses? He’s got a tube of Orajel in his pocket and he’s got a toothache or a cold sore or something.

    But again, based on what is widely known about the cocaine abusing son of or 47th president… we can go on context queues alone here, pretty reasonably.

      I think we can definitely Occam’s Razor this but I would not be surprised to see people suggest that it was something like a chewing tobacco pouch. I think they call them Zyn?

      Like I’m 100% in camp “he’s gumming some coke”, just saying there could be people who believe it isn’t.

        I’ve never seen anyone rub a zyn into their gums like they were exfoliating their elbows, but I also agree with you.

          I’ve also never seen a Zyn that sticks to your fingers like that, but I can definitely see people buying it.

        Being from Scandinavia and having used snus (what zyn is) for over 20 years I can confidently say this:

        It is not a zyn. Fuckers rubbing his gums not putting a zyn in under his lip.
