WASHINGTON: Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump conditioned holding a debate with President Joe Biden getting a drug test first.
Trump, during an interview with radio host Hugh Hewitt, once again accused the Democrat of using cocaine, this time during his hard-hitting State of the Union speech in March.
Last summer, a baggie of drugs was found in White House’s heavily trafficked area, following which Trump alleged that it belonged to Hunter Biden and his father, but the Secret Service couldn’t find the culprit.
When asked by Hewitt whether Biden would agree to a verbal showdown, Trump said: “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. And I think debates, with him at least, should be drug-tested. I want a drug test. I don’t know what he’s using, but that was not ― hey, he was higher than a kite.” –Agencies
