The Patriot Post® · Joe's Blow?
No one wants to talk about it, but Donald Trump had a coke habit when he was in the White House.
Actually, it was a Coke habit — a Diet Coke habit. If we’re to believe The New York Times, he’d guzzle a dozen cans a day. Further, he apparently had a “Diet Coke” button on the resolute desk in the Oval Office — a button Joe Biden removed on his first day in office, even before he executive-ordered the Keystone XL pipeline out of existence. Trump’s Coke habit was so serious, in fact, that CNN saw fit to chastise him about it in a full-length article.
In light of this, we have to wonder whether there are any limits to the corruption of the Biden Crime Family. That a bag of cocaine had been found over the weekend in a West Wing cubby used by guests and White House staffers isn’t surprising, given the people we’re talking about. Heck, we thought the Clintons defiled the White House. But these folks? The incessant lying; the grifting; the rainbow-colored lights and flags besmirching the people’s house; the cross-dressing sicko flashing his “boobs” on the White House lawn; the despicable deadbeat grandpa and grandma in the Oval Office; the crack-smoking, hooker-schtupping, money-grubbing, influence-peddling first son; and now a bag of blow finds its way into the West Wing.
No, the discovery of the cocaine isn’t the thing. The dismissiveness of the discovery is the thing — both by the authorities and by the mainstream media.
As Politico’s Daniel Lippman reports (emphasis added), “One official familiar with the investigation cautioned that the source of the drug was unlikely to be determined given that it was discovered in a highly trafficked area of the West Wing.”
Come again?
Cocaine is a Schedule II narcotic, like meth or fentanyl, and its discovery over the weekend caused an evacuation of the White House. As Arkansas Republican Senator Tom Cotton asked in a letter yesterday: “Illegally possessing cocaine is a crime under federal law. If the Secret Service discovers the identity of the individual who brought illicit cocaine into the White House complex, will they make an arrest under this provision?”
They’d darn well better find the owner of that coke, and they’d darn well better make an arrest. For Joe Biden’s sake. Because there he was, clear as day, on June 20, 1991, way back when he was still lucid, taking to the Senate floor to pontificate on the evils of cocaine: “If you have a piece of crack cocaine, no bigger than this quarter, you’re caught with that, you go to jail for five years,” he bragged.
Well, Joe? What have you got to say now? When asked about it yesterday at the end of a tightly controlled press event, he just sat there and grinned. Have some coke and a smile, Uncle Joe.
But the need for an arrest isn’t just a matter of tamping down the strong and corrosive sense among everyday Americans that there are two tiers of justice in this country — one for those on the Left and another tier for those on the Right.
To understand why this goes well beyond the preferential treatment being afforded this Democrat president and his family and friends, let’s conduct a simple thought experiment: Let’s imagine that the substance found by the Secret Service wasn’t cocaine, but anthrax. Given this scenario, are we really to believe that someone could’ve come into the White House and carried out an assassination attempt without the Secret Service being able to identify the would-be assassin?
Apparently, the Secret Service is looking at security footage and White House visitor logs. Hmm … ya think?
“As you know,” said Karine Jean-Pierre, the self-proclaimed “historic” White House press secretary, “the president and the first lady and their family were not here this weekend, as you all reported on this and as you also know that they left on Friday and returned just yesterday. Where this was discovered is a heavily traveled area where many White House, West Wing — I should be even more specific — West Wing visitors come through this particular area, I just don’t have anything more to share.”
Asked by a journalist whether Biden was committed to getting to the bottom of this, KJP replied: “The Secret Service is getting to the bottom of it and that’s what matters, and it’s under their purview. The president thinks it’s very important to get to the bottom of this. That’s why the Secret Service, which is under their purview, is looking into this. And they’re going to look into what happened this weekend. So the president thinks this is incredibly important to get to the bottom of this.”
We’ll see about that.
Occam’s Razor tells us that Hunter Biden is an obvious suspect, but no Russian hookers were found near the blow, so this would be a departure from the first son’s standard practice. But remember: This is the guy who so loved cocaine that there’s video of him weighing the precious stuff on that FBI-verified “Russian disinformation” laptop computer of his.
As Colin Rugg remarked upon reviewing footage of Hunter watching fireworks from the White House on July 4, “I’m not saying Hunter Biden snorted cocaine at the White House but if he did, I would expect it to look exactly like this.”

Strangely, Joe Biden passes long stretches of mind-numbing stupor with rare and brief bouts of lucidity, like when it’s necessary to read a primetime speech long after snuggerbunny time. Could the coke have been his? Could it have been the performance-enhancing drug that got him through that interminable State of the Union Address?
As Ron DeSantis put it, “The Biden administration has been blowing it on multiple fronts, but I guess that’s now a bit more literal than I thought it was.”
UPDATE: According to NBC News, “Multiple officials involved in the White House cocaine inquiry now say the bag of powder was found in a cubby near the White House’s West Executive entrance, not the formal West Wing lobby, as was previously reported.” More specifically, the bag was found “near where some vehicles, like the vice president’s limo or SUV, park. It is one floor below the main West Wing offices and on the same floor as the Situation Room and a dining area.” Further, in addition to looking at security footage and visitor logs, the Secret Service is now conducting fingerprint and DNA analysis. Clearly, if they want to get to the bottom of this, they have the means to do so.
