Our reading

An editorial interpretation.

The insult invents a medication that would account for foolish behavior. Phrasing it as a question gives the accusation the appearance of seeking an explanation. The morning reference makes the imagined cause sound recent and ordinary, which adds to the absurdity of the proposed pills.
