Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) promoted a doozy of a bill that would require President Joe Biden to inform the public every time he takes a “mind-altering stimulant.”
Republicans in recent weeks have insisted that Biden will be on drugs for his debate against former President Donald Trump on Thursday. Conservatives have spent years portraying Biden as a feeble and cognitively impaired old man. But amid fears that they have set low expectations for Biden’s upcoming performance, they claim the only way he can have a good showing is if he takes drugs.
“He’s gonna be so pumped up, he’s gonna be pumped up,” Trump said at a rally this month while alluding to a baggy of cocaine found at the White House last year. “You know all that stuff that was missing about a month ago from the White House? What happened?”
Appearing on Newsmax on Wednesday night, Ogles explained his bill, which – spoiler alert – will never become law.
“He’s asleep at the wheel,” Ogles said of Biden’s handling of the southern border. “By the way, I have my bill – the No Juicing Joe, which would require to be– to divulge, to report to the American people anytime that he takes a mind-altering stimulant like we know he’s gonna have to do before this debate. They’re gonna have him juiced up and jacked up on some sort of cocktail so that he can be lucid and take on, or at least try to debate Donald Trump.”
Elsewhere in the House Republican Conference, Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) has written a letter to the White House demanding Biden take a drug test before and after the debate.
The president delivered an energetic speech at this year’s State of the Union, bucking the “Sleepy Joe” image Trump has long promoted. At the time, Sean Hannity of Fox News called the president “Jacked-Up Joe” and suggested Biden was on something. Last week, Hannity predicted Biden will be “hyped up” during the debate.
