The Republicans, including Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, made such a big deal out of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s health. She had pneumonia and had to take a few days off. The Dr Drew On Call show got cancelled because Dr. Drew speculated about Clinton’s healthcare.
Last night, both presidential candidates participated in their first debate together. Hillary Clinton absolutely won it, according to polls. However, there was one thing we noticed about Donald Trump.
He kept sniffing during the entire debate.
The sniffs have gotten people from all over social media speculating as to why he was sniffing.
Trump’s constant need to drink water and the sniffing have been linked to his alleged cocaine use.
Even Howard Dean, former Democratic National Committee chairperson, outright accused Trump of using cocaine:
Notice Trump sniffing all the time. Coke user?

Afterwards, others got in on the act on Twitter:
Is it just me or does anyone else agreed that Trump was high during the Debate?

@Morning_Joe Where are the concerns regarding Trump sniffing throughout debate? Does he have a brain tumor? Does he do drugs? On meds??

There is even a troll Twitter account called Trump Sniff. A sampling of some of the expert trolling:

Even Late Show host Stephen Colbert had something to say about it:
“Trump sounded like he was fighting off a cold. With cocaine!”
He also said Trump looked like Scarface, but “with more face,” and that:
“Instead of doing a bunch of mock debates, the word is that [Trump] sat down with friends over bacon cheeseburgers, hot dogs and glasses of Coca-Cola and tested out zingers. Wow, that’s how I prepared for tonight’s debate, too. And he may not have prepared, but it also looked like he didn’t.”
Trevor Noah also mentioned the sniffing on The Daily Show:
“I don’t want to start any rumors, but there’s a reason I think Trump didn’t do well. I’m not sure and I’m not trying to start rumors, but Trump was sniffing a lot at the debate. … He was probably sniffing all of the bullsh– he was saying.”
Of course, we can’t forget the tissues:

Between the sniffing and his horrible behavior, Trump really blew the first debate. Pun intended.
Someone actually turned his sniffing into a song – see it here:
