So... I know it's a made up story, but if an 81 year old takes a little something something to prepare for a debate and he presents well... what exactly is the issue? All it says to me is that he's got enough faculty left to be able to hold his own against whatever improvised topics Trump throws at him. So many people admit they need a coffee in the morning before their brain starts working, yet have an issue with someone having a stimulant before a 90 minute high-stakes presentation? And that's assuming the story isn't just a projection. Clutch those pearls harder...
