And meanwhile we have a President who’s never drank or used drugs.

Is that bad now?

Wasn’t George Washington at one time the biggest distiller in the country?

John Quincy Adams enjoyed Madeira wine, a drink that gets its flavor through a repeated heating process.

That is how Madeira is made today. In Adams day the "repeated heating process" was simply crossing the equator with the wine still in barrels.

Interesting considering Trump doesn’t drink at all according to sources.

I’ve seen this plant many times. I thought that it was just a weed:

Description
Artemisia absinthium is a herbaceous, perennial plant with fibrous roots. The stems are straight, growing to 0.8–1.2 metres (2 ft 7 in–3 ft 11 in) (rarely 1.5 m, but, sometimes even larger) tall, grooved, branched, and silvery-green. The leaves are spirally arranged, greenish-grey above and white below, covered with silky silvery-white trichomes, and bearing minute oil-producing glands; the basal leaves are up to 25 cm long, bipinnate to tripinnate with long petioles, with the cauline leaves (those on the stem) smaller, 5–10 cm long, less divided, and with short petioles; the uppermost leaves can be both simple and sessile (without a petiole). Its flowers are pale yellow, tubular, and clustered in spherical bent-down heads (capitula), which are in turn clustered in leafy and branched panicles. Flowering is from early summer to early autumn; pollination is anemophilous. The fruit is a small achene; seed dispersal is by gravity.[6]

It grows naturally on uncultivated, arid ground, on rocky slopes, and at the edge of footpaths and fields.

Toxicity[edit]
Artemisia absinthium contains thujone, a GABAA receptor antagonist that can cause epileptic-like convulsions and kidney failure when ingested in large amounts.
