Trump’s New Low: Accusing Biden of Using Performance-Enhancing Drugs
SOMEONE’S SCARED

President Trump has thrown out one of his most absurd explanations for opponent Joe Biden going from “so bad” in presidential debates to leading Trump in most election polls. It’s because Biden is on performance-enhancing drugs, apparently. “There’s probably, possibly, drugs involved,” Trump told Judge Jeanine Pirro on Fox News, with absolutely zero evidence. “That’s what I hear.” Pirro nodded along as he continued, “How is it possible that he can even go forward?” The irony was thick: During the Republican National Convention, a bizarrely glassy-eyed Donald Trump, Jr. was accused of being under the influence of something, to the point where it was trending on Twitter.

to blame someone else what he is doing. The thing is this;What does he think Biden should look like? Biden must look good to have had enhancement.Too bad Trumps makes him look 40 years older and fake.He is an ugly man, inside and out.

you are saying your opponent takes 'performance enhancing' drugs... and he still makes more sense discussing the current situation than you do discussing a TGIFriday's menu?

I am not sure you should be using this to try and make yourself sound more competent. It actually does the opposite.

Exactly what kind of drugs do you think he’s taking?
How do you think he’s taking them—pills? crushing them and snorting them?
How do you think he’s getting them—from a compromised doctor? From someone on his staff?

Trump usually accuses people of things he does.
