Trump calls for drug tests before Biden debate

President Trump says he will call for drug tests for both former Vice President Joe Biden and himself before the first candidates' debate on Sept. 29. In an Oval Office interview Wednesday, the president expressed suspicion at what he said was a sudden, marked improvement in Biden's debate performance during the Democratic primary season and suggested that he believes the improvement was the result of drugs. The president offered no evidence to support his speculation.

Biden took part in 11 debates during the primary season. Most were against a crowded field of candidates, but the final debate, on March 15, was just Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders. The president claimed to see a big difference between the last debate and those that came before.

Joe is on a Drug Cocktail to keep in lucid to some degree.

My guess is all sorts of things to keep him alert and whatever medications there are for Dementia and Alzheimer's.

But all of this will only work for a short time and cannot stop the progress of the disease.

Biden will not agree to any drug test as all that would come out, he can't, even with the drugs, do a 90 minute plus debate. So no debates at all, unless they might be virtual and they have a kill switch for Biden if he goes off the rails.

Biden will stay in his Bunker and let Harris do all the campaigning, and yet there are people that will vote for this sad pathetic man who needs help.

No

[Captain Peter Blood]

Those kind of drugs may give you incremental help, but nothing dramatic. They will only work for a short time.

The Man!!!

Partly. Trump’s call for a test makes the listener to assume Biden did take drugs to enhance his performance by making us wonder if he would pass the test. Further, during the debates and during all future speeches by Biden we will wonder if he is mentally competent or has he taken a drug to enhance his performance.

It is a kill shot equivalent of persuasion.

Outstanding! Recall Biden asking a reporter if the reporter was a “junkie”? Specifically cocaine Biden mentioned.

Biden and his son are peas in a pod.... cokeheads. Expensive habit. Heroin is cheaper.

Trump is brilliant. The arrogance and cocky acting Biden gets his “strength” from nose candy. rocknrolla coca cola biden, Bite Me. Dog faced pony soldier (seriously— where the HELL did that comment come from against a total stranger in his audience who dare argue with him).

The man is a chemical enhanced dementia fakir. Just as Nantzi Pelosi has lost her mind to alcohol. They belong together in a locked ward.

There have been several speculation articles, probably biased, and former apprentice stars and celebrities that knew him before the presidency say he abused adderrall. And in one of his photo-ops there was a drawer full of British px sudafed or sudafedrin whatever. Stuff like that. And because of some of his mannerisms and health problems etc and late night twitter rants ha. And of course it’s not “common knowledge on freerepublic as it is in general with non-Trump supporters

Who knows, I was just saying he’s been accused of the same thing in the past

[poconopundit]

Ha, ha. OK, I went too far in my thinking. I am a student of Scott Adams who talks about “thinking past the sale”.

Good explanation. I get it now and Trump’s brilliant to employ this tactic.

And we see how the Democrats disarm this latest Trump troll:

[ridesthemiles]

It was painfully obvious that Hillary went UP & DOWN during her campaign.

No telling what kinds of drugs could be used for ‘performance enhancement. Even race horses are tested after EVERY race.

LOL! Trump is magnificent!

Yep, Hilarious
