Popular Post Social Media Posted May 19 Popular Post Share Posted May 19 Donald Trump has called for President Joe Biden to undergo a drug test before their first scheduled debate. This demand was made during Trump's speech at the Minnesota Republican Party’s Lincoln Reagan Dinner on Friday. “I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way,” Trump declared, drawing attention with his provocative claim. “I am, no I really am. I don’t want him coming in like the State of the Union, he was high as a kite.” Trump has previously accused Biden of being “all jacked up” during his State of the Union address, suggesting that the president was under the influence of drugs. The context of these accusations dates back to Biden's State of the Union address, where Trump and some of his allies have repeatedly claimed that Biden appeared unusually energetic, implying that he might have used performance-enhancing substances. Trump reiterated this stance in a radio interview, asserting that Biden was “higher than a kite” during the speech. As the former president and Biden prepare for two upcoming presidential debates, scheduled for June and September on CNN and ABC respectively, Trump's comments have added a contentious twist to the pre-debate atmosphere. With just over a month before the first debate, the stakes are high, and the rhetoric is heating up. Trump emphasized the need for fairness in the debates during his Minnesota speech. “They gotta be fair, I think they gotta be fair, and if they’re not, you know, you have to deal with it. Right? You have to deal with it,” he said, highlighting his concerns about potential bias and the integrity of the debate process. Adding fuel to the fire, Rep. Greg Murphy (R-N.C.) echoed Trump’s sentiments on Thursday, suggesting that Biden was under the influence during his State of the Union address. “I was in the State of the Union address and Joe Biden must have been jacked up on something that day. I absolutely believe that from a medical viewpoint and actually have a little bit of good knowledge that happened,” Murphy stated. “He can’t stand, and he can’t stand under the lights for that long, and I don’t think he can keep a concept in his brain that long.” These assertions have sparked significant controversy and have been widely discussed in political circles. As of now, no official statement has been made regarding Trump's drug test demand or the allegations of drug use during the State of the Union address. The demand for a drug test is not entirely unprecedented in political history, but it is certainly unusual and adds an unprecedented layer of drama to the upcoming debates. Trump's tactics appear to be aimed at casting doubt on Biden's mental and physical fitness, a strategy he has employed in the past. As the debate dates approach, both candidates are likely to ramp up their preparations and public appearances. Trump's latest demand is likely to be a topic of intense scrutiny and debate among political analysts and the public alike. Whether Biden will agree to such a test remains to be seen, but the request itself has already succeeded in drawing significant media attention and sparking discussions about the candidates' health and fitness for office.

Get your facts right ok. I loathe both parties but loathe even more when people make stupid and baseless comments about someone just because they do not like that person. 2 4 5 1 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LosLobo Posted May 20 Popular Post Share Posted May 20 (edited) Trump's demand for a drug test from Biden appears paradoxical, given Trump's apparent refusal to take a pre-agreed COVID test before the 2020 debate. It's possible he aimed to play Typhoid Mary, risking his opponent's infection after testing positive three days prior. The judges bypassed the rules by using the 'honor system' to permit Trump's participation. History would suggest honour and Trump are mutually exclusive. Trump wants others to play by the rules, without himself playing the game.

Popular Post JCauto Posted May 20 Popular Post Share Posted May 20 9 minutes ago, Ultrathai said: Biden is sick 😫 with dementia and can't put two sentences together. Is that the idiot that you are talking about? So did you watch the State of the Union? That was a powerful speech and it lasted one hour and seven minutes! That sure is a long time to drag out two sentences. Here's the link so you can observe within seconds that he's got quite the ability to speechify. https://www.whitehouse.gov/state-of-the-union-2024/ As with the drug testing, every accusation is a confession with you people. You are seriously trying to make a cognitive impairment argument with the guy who bicycles around and gives polished hours-long speeches with detailed policy and nuanced understanding and the guy who wears diapers and falls asleep at his own trial and who STILL keeps referring to Barack Obama when he means his actual political opponent who beat him in the last election and who has been president these last four years. Why do you have to lie and state obvious mistruths? Just because your hero does it and you accept it doesn't mean that you can emulate him and have us slavering over your blatant untruths. 2 2 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
