He was recorded saying that during his high school years he smoked marijuana, drank alcohol and, when he could afford it, used cocaine. This epiphany should have immediately and irreparably destroyed his campaign and erased any chance that he may become our president. To my complete surprise, it has been largely ignored by the liberal media outlets. Where is the public outrage? Where are the news reports? Have we become so immoral as a nation that this has become acceptable? Is this the new metric for presidential behavior? If this man is elected president, it will signal the end of this republic.
