Donald Trump Jr.'s recent video promoting his podcast invited a wave of reactions not for its content but for what some said was his peculiar appearance and behavior.

The clip, which was meant to highlight his father's ability to deliver speeches without prior preparation, sparked debates about Trump Jr.'s sobriety after he was seen struggling to keep his eyes open, as the Inquisitr reports.

The video, which was posted on the platform X, formerly known as Twitter, aimed to promote Trump Jr.'s podcast, Triggered.

The focus of the video was to praise Donald Trump Sr. for a speech given on March 5 at Mar-a-Lago.

Trump Jr. marveled at his father's ability to speak impromptu for 20 minutes, claiming that Joe Biden could not do the same without any notes or a teleprompter.

Social Media Buzz and Public Reaction

The video was shared by Ron Filipkowski, associated with Meidas Touch. His post highlighted Trump Jr.'s apparent difficulty keeping his eyes wide open. From there, social media was flooded with speculation and critical observations about Trump Jr.'s appearance.

Numerous users questioned whether Trump Jr. was under the influence of any substances. One user suggested he was on something, though they were unsure what exactly. Another joked about his disheveled look, noting their surprise at the absence of snack crumbs in his beard.

Appearance Critiques and Drug Use Speculation

Observers pointed out peculiarities in Trump Jr.'s facial expressions and movement. One woman commented that half of his face did not appear to be functioning. A man drew comparisons to Hunter Biden, implying that Trump Jr. seemed inebriated.

Critics also speculated about possible drug use due to the way Trump Jr.'s mouth appeared to move to the side. Some drew conclusions about stimulant usage, calling his gestures and speech indicative of being "coked up."

Past Allegations Stirred by Ex-Girlfriend

Fueling the conversation further, former pop star Aubrey O'Day, who previously had an affair with Trump Jr., made claims about their past drug usage. O'Day stated that while they did use drugs together, cocaine was never one of them and he did not show interest in it.

O'Day also revisited details of their affair while Trump Jr. was still married to Vanessa Trump.

During a separate conversation on Michael Cohen's podcast "Mea Culpa," she remembered Trump Jr. being at ease in settings like a homosexual nightclub, despite his public anti-LGBTQ stance.

Mixed Responses and O'Day's Insights

O'Day's comments added a layer of complexity to the allegations, providing both specific allegations and personal observations about Trump Jr.'s behavior.

She noted that he either was on serious medication like Adderall or was going through inner turmoil, as he had not appeared well for quite some time.

The public's response was mixed; some shared O'Day's recollections, while others criticized her for past comments about her relationship with Trump Jr. Despite the difficult position such claims place her in, O'Day has maintained her narrative about the past.

Conclusion: Ongoing Debate and Public Discourse

In summary, Donald Trump Jr.'s video aimed at podcast promotion took on an unintended narrative as his demeanor led to widespread speculation about his wellbeing and sobriety. The comments from viewers and his former partner only fueled the controversy.

Social media platforms became a battleground of opinions and speculation, reflecting diverse views on what was captured in the clip.

The incident underscores the ongoing public discourse around public figures and how their every move invites analysis and judgment from all quarters.
