Donald Trump Puts Outrageous Condition On Potential Debate With Joe Biden
Donald Trump on Thursday accused President Joe Biden of being “higher than a kite” and insisted any debate with him “should be drug-tested.”
In an interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, Trump revived his baseless insinuation that Biden used cocaine, this time during his fiery State of the Union speech last month.
A baggie of the drug was found last summer in a heavily-trafficked area of the White House. Without evidence, Trump accused both Hunter Biden and his father of using the stash. But the Secret Service said it could not finger the culprit.
Asked by Hewitt whether Biden would agree to a debate before their expected rematch in November, Trump replied: “I don’t think so, but I hope he does... You know that white stuff that they happened to find, which happened to be cocaine in the White House? I don’t know, I think something’s going on there, because I watched his State of the Union, and he was all jacked up at the beginning. By the end, he was fading fast. There’s something going on there.”
“I want to debate,” Trump continued. “And I think debates, with him at least, should be drug tested. I want a drug test.”
Hewitt asked the presumed GOP nominee if he was suggesting that Biden is using cocaine.
“I don’t know what he’s using, but that was not, hey, he was higher than a kite,” Trump replied.
