President Donald Trump suggested President Joe Biden should be drug tested before their debate and agreed to take one himself.
Trump and Republicans have long accused Biden of using performance-enhancing drugs to appear more agile, allegations the White House has repeatedly denied. The former president usually limited these suggestions to jokes, but he upped the ante Monday when he suggested that he and Biden should undergo drug tests before their debate Thursday.
“DRUG TEST FOR CROOKED JOE BIDEN??? I WOULD, ALSO, IMMEDIATELY AGREE TO ONE!!!” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
The Biden campaign dismissed Trump’s accusation, referring to remarks made by Biden campaign cochairman Mitch Landrieu in an appearance on Meet the Press on Sunday.
“Trump’s going to talk trash like that all the time because that’s what he does,” he said. “The other day, you may remember, he was trying to question our president’s mental acuity, and he could not remember the name of his own doctor, so tell President Trump, bring whatever he’s got — President Biden will be standing there, ready for him.”
10 Amazing Tips for a Pet-Friendly Home Makeover 10 Amazing Tips for a Pet-Friendly Home Makeover Though perhaps his most straightforward call for Biden to be drug tested, Trump has been toying with the idea since the 2020 campaign.
At the Minnesota Republican Party’s annual Lincoln Reagan Dinner in May, Trump said Biden was going to be “so jacked up” for the debate, alleging that he was “high as a kite” during his State of the Union Address. He also joked that he would demand a drug test before the debate.
In previous statements, the Biden campaign has denied the president uses any drugs. In an April statement to Forbes, Biden campaign spokesman Ammar Moussa called Trump’s accusations “a bizarre outburst” meant to distract from his policies.
Other Republicans have made similar demands as Trump’s, with Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX), a former White House physician, demanding Biden take a drug test before the presidential debate.
“You know, he’s going to be Camp David for a full week before the debate. Part of that is probably experimenting with, you know, just getting the doses just right,” the Texas Republican said in an appearance on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures With Maria Bartiromo.
“Because, you know, they have to treat his cognition. They have to give him something to help him think straighter. They have to give him something to wake him up, you know, to for his alertness. And then, you know, he’s been agitated, we see that all the time,” he added. “And that’s a common symptom of signs of the cognitive disorder he seems to be suffering from. And so, they’re probably going to give him something to take off the edge of that as well.”
The debate will not be drug free, will it Joe
I've no doubt Biden will be shot up with some sort of stimulant like amphetamines, Ritalin, etc. That is why Biden would never agree to a drug test.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) June 24, 2024
This is Trumps out.
“DRUG TEST FOR CROOKED JOE BIDEN??? I WOULD, ALSO, IMMEDIATELY AGREE TO ONE!!!”
That seems a little stronger than suggested.
This is your troll.
*****
oK....then submit to a drug test live on camera.
Biden wont do the drug test anyway, honestly who cares, Trump needs to just show up, be presidential for 90 minutes and leave thats it
If there really is a drug that will improve cognition like it’s being described here, we should make every single person in government take it. They all need some clear thinking now.
I hope that Trump is serious about Biden having to take drug test and that each drug discovered be thoroughly identified.
He should call him feeble minded the whole debate
Too feeble minded to stand trial
As usual,
He (Trump) knows something, and what sounds ridiculous might shock folks if actually done.
Biden is finished and likely needs to be juiced up to get through a debate without stumbling or freezing.
performance enhancing drugs are normally illegal for sporting events.
a debate is a ‘sporting event’ for politics.
“Be Presidential”? Is he capable of it? In the general media sense of the word?

No one believes this is serious [as if PDJT would withdraw when biden refuses/ignores], nor would biden ever agree.
It’s a troll. And effective. Hence the caterwauling.
