Former President Trump said he wants President Biden to be drug-tested before their first debate.

“I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way,” Trump said at the Minnesota Republican Party’s Lincoln Reagan Dinner Friday. “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 stated in a radio interview that Biden was “all jacked up” at the beginning of his State of the Union address, as well as “higher than a kite.”

Remember back in 2016 when Trump challenged Bernie Sanders to a debate? Bernie said sure and Trump had to walk it back.

The last thing Trump and his people wants it to have to have him stand up in an uncontrolled setting.

I'll be amazed if these debates happen.

Do the debates, and reveal the results of the drug test (taken by both candidates) DURING the debate. Let's do this shit like Maury.

Can Maury reveal it as well?? I would actually watch it then!

[-] nickhammes@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

Can Maury moderate it? Bring in some family members before they reveal the test results, maybe some videos played to tell us a bit more about them

Perfect. And throw in a few surprise paternity tests at the same time

Donald, you’re the father.

I’m sure he has at least a dozen illegitimate kids.

The best would be if he actually wasn't Baron's father...turns out Melania had a side piece, too.

Oh I meant like several dozen women come out with his illegitimate heirs, but that’d actually be pretty fuckin hilarious.

Hold on, we don't want him getting aroused.

I hate this but honestly it's the most truly American way to handle it so I say go for it.
