After a debate punctuated by Donald Trump's sniffles, 'Star Wars' actress Carrie Fisher claims she knows what the cause was: Cocaine.

Fisher tweeted throughout the hour-and-a-half-long debate, often poking fun at the Republican nominee. 

But when one fan asked her about the sniffling, Fisher wasn't mincing words.

'Tell me something about that sniffle…coke head or no?' the fan tweeted at Fisher.

Fisher, 59, shot back: 'I'm an expert & ABSOLUTELY.'

Fisher has been open about her heavy use of cocaine in the 1980s, according to the International Business Times

The actress even admitted to doing the drug on the set of 'The Empire Strikes Back' and has frequently talked about being addicted to the substance.  

'I did drugs because they alter you in a way you can’t alter yourself if you’re not comfortable in your own skin.

'I didn’t even like coke that much, it was just a case of getting on whatever train I needed to take to get high,' she told the Mirror last year. 

Fisher also tweeted later in the night and put a nose emoji in the post, nodding to Trump's perpetual sniffles

Fisher is only speculating that Trump could've been on cocaine and there is no evidence he has done the drug. 

However, she continued to belabor the point, later tweeting about Trump and using a nose emoji within the post. 

And the Princess Leia actress isn't the only person to make the claim that Trump could've snorted the drug before his debate performances. 

At the first debate, Howard Dean had the same suspicion Fisher had at the second debate, which was that Trump was on drugs

Former Vermont Governor Howard Dean tweeted after the first debate that he thought Trump had used cocaine. 

'Notice Trump sniffing all the time. Coke user?' he wrote. 

Dean, who is a medical doctor, later said he could not diagnose Trump from afar and wouldn't attempt to, but said Trump presented symptoms of a cocaine user. 

He later apologized for the remarks.
