PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: During an interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt on Thursday, April 4, former President Donald Trump made claims against current President Joe Biden, stating that he was "higher than a kite" and insisting that any future debate with him "should be drug-tested."

Per HuffPost, Trump also insinuated, without evidence, that Biden used cocaine during his State of the Union speech last month.

The 77-year-old MAGA figurehead had previously accused sans proof both Hunter Biden and his father of using a baggie of cocaine that was found last summer in a heavily trafficked area of the White House, but the Secret Service stated that they could not identify the wrongdoer.

What did Trump say about debating Biden before November election?

Host Hewitt pressed the 2024 presumptive GOP nominee on whether he ponders if his opponent Joe Biden will agree to a debate before their expected rematch in November.

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,” the former POTUS added. “And I think debates, with him at least, should be drug-tested. I want a drug test.”

Hewitt inquired if Trump was implying that President Biden has been using cocaine.

“I don’t know what he’s using, but that was not ― hey, he was higher than a kite,” Trump remarked.

He continued, “He’s obviously, he’s being helped some way, because most of the time he looks like he’s falling asleep. All of a sudden, he walked up there and did a poor job, but he was all jacked up.”

In response to Trump's recent comments, a spokesperson for the Biden campaign, Ammar Moussa, has dismissed them as a "bizarre outburst" and noted the former president's "toxic agenda."

Despite Trump's repeated calls for a debate with Biden, the ex-President himself declined to participate in any of the Republican presidential primary debates.

President Biden has previously stated that a debate would depend on Trump's "behavior," indicating that he is willing to engage in a debate if it is conducted in a civil manner.

Internet mocked Donald Trump for suggesting Joe Biden take drug test before hypothetical debate

People on X ridiculed the former President of the United States for putting a brazen stipulation on his potential debate with the Democrat incumbent POTUS.

One X user said: “Donald j Trump is the one on drugs. Unfit to be president. A liar and fraud."



 

Another user contended: "Drug testing before Presidential debates? Sure! BY ALL MEANS, but Trump goes first."



 

Another user wrote: "Do they test for Adderall too? If so, he may want to walk that back, lol. Normal people aren't rage posting at 3am without some supplements."



 

One user remarked: "Someone is projecting again."



 

Another X user asked: "who's the one known for his drug use and surrounded by drug users for most of his life? That would be Donald J Trump and family! Bingo! From Cocaine to Adderall!"



 

Finally, this user tweeted: "And they should also hook trump up to a lie detector during the debate but he’d never agree to that in a million years."
