In his speech Thursday, Mr. Trump got a little personal, pointing to his relationship with his brother as a reason why the U.S. needs to deter young people from trying drugs in the first place. Mr. Trump's older brother, Fred Trump, had an alcohol addiction. But he always urged his younger brother not to drink.
"I learned myself, I had a brother Fred, great guy, best looking guy, best personality, much better than mine, but he had a problem," the president said. "He had a problem with alcohol. And he would tell me don't drink, don't drink. He was substantially older and I listened to him and I respected. But he would constantly tell me don't drink, he would also add don't smoke. But he would say it over and over and over again."
"And to this day I've never had a drink," Mr. Trump continued. "And I have no longing for it. I have no interest in it. To this day I've never had a cigarette. Don't worry, those are only two of my good things. I don't want to tell you about the bad things. There's plenty of bad things too. But he really helped me. I had somebody that guided me. And he had a very, very, very tough life because of alcohol, believe me, very, very tough, tough life. He was a strong guy, but it was a tough, tough thing that he was going through. But I learned because of Fred, I learned."
