Trump suggests Biden should be drug tested before debate and says he’ll take one too

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 rules allow for them to have a glass of water. I’d want to have Biden’s tested.

Good idea, he does need to refer to it often. And maybe come up with a better moniker than sleepy joe. Dementia Joe or something.

If Biden is clean, he has nothing to worry about, right? Just take a test Tater.

I think as of now the most concerning voter blocks Trump’s campaign team should really worry about are the illegal immigrant invaders who are being registered to vote at a record pace and the Swifty’s who are being registered left and right at every concert and now Lady Gaga is doing the same thing. These are two voting blocks that we should be very very concerned about. These are the abortion crazies who will do whatever these two skunks want them to do. And remember as much as we dislike those two they draw thousands to their concerts and have millions of followers on social media! They can make a huge difference in this election. They can draw the women’s vote out on November 5.

IMO Trump always acts Presidential. Every other President ( sans Reagan ) acted like a stuffed shirt with stick up their arse.

Did you see this?

Most of these have been removed - it was hard to find this one. She cheated. There are pictures of her with an earpiece in during the debate not to mention the lighted up podium that one of her clean up men came to and removed a device and wires immediately after she left the podium. Those videos have also been scrubbed.

With a cloth.
