WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump’s doctor Ronny Jackson has been called out online after he claimed Joe Biden might need the “right mix of” drugs to perform better during the upcoming presidential debate.

The Former White House physician shared his thoughts while speaking on Donald Trump Jr's ‘Triggered’ podcast, as reported by OK! Magazine.

Ronny Jackson names drug he thinks Biden may take

He said, “Some of those are drugs that are engineered to try and help with your cognition. Some of them are just to try and make you more awake. The amphetamine-type drugs like Adderall and things of that nature.”

“And then there's things like Provigil that increase your alertness,” Jackson explained, before adding, “So, I think they're probably trying to find just the right mix of stuff that can wake him up and make him a little bit more alert with it.”

Trump called Ronny Jackson ‘Ronny Johnson’

This came after Trump forgot Jackson’s name while speaking about him at a Saturday, June 15, event.

The Republican leader reportedly revealed, “I took a cognitive test, and I aced it. Doc Ronny — Doc Ronny Johnson. Does everyone know Ronny Johnson, congressman from Texas?”

“He was the White House doctor and he told me I was the healthiest president he feels in history. So I liked him very much,” he added.

Internet reacts to Ronny Jackson's claims

Meanwhile, Jackson’s statement has garnered negative attention for him as Political pundit Ron Filipkowski tweeted, “After Trump called him ‘Ronny Johnson,’ Jackson went on Junior’s podcast to say that Biden will be on Adderall & Provigil during the upcoming debate, which happens to be the same drugs he dispensed in huge quantities while serving the Trump WH. Story.”



 

An X user commented, “Welcome to Magaland! Where every accusation is a confession.”



 

“The Whitehouse pill mill, with Donny at the helm,” another user shared.



 

A third one noted, “Trump wants Biden to take a drug test before the debate.  I think he should agree to that if Trump will sit with a team of psychiatrists before the debate.”



 



 

“We always knew that Trump is on drugs. Now we know which ones ‘Ronny Jonson’ told us,” a fourth user stated.



 

A fifth one added, “This is Maga proactive attempt to normalize Trump being heavily medicated in the debate. If Biden does it, Trump is okay with doing it. It's a false equivalency.”



 



 

“MAGA already lining up the excuses for Trump‘s poor debate performance……. As expected,” a comment read.

Another one was “Jackson also announced he will change his name from Ronny Jackson to Donny Johnson.”

Another added, "And Ronny knows this for a fact? What a liar."
