Former President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of being high on cocaine during his State of the Union speech last month and demanded that the president take a drug test before future debates.

“I think what happened is 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 this State of the Union, and he was all jacked up at the beginning,” Trump said during an interview with the conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt.

Trump was referencing the discovery last summer of a powdered substance in the White House, which later tested positive for cocaine. The Secret Service was unable to determine who left it there but speculated it was a visitor.

“By the end, he was fading fast,” Trump added. “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.”

“Mr. President, are you suggesting President Biden’s using cocaine?” Hewitt asked him.

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

“And by the way, it was the worst, it was the worst address I’ve ever seen, the State of the Nation,” the former president declared. “I’ll tell you, State of the Union, that’s not State of the Union, because he doesn’t represent us properly. That, I can tell you.”

“But he’s obviously, he’s being helped in some way because most of the time, he looks like he’s falling asleep,” he then claimed. “And all of a sudden, he walked up there and did a poor job. But he was all jacked up.”

Biden campaign spokesman Ammar Moussa called Trump’s remarks “a bizarre outburst.”

The spokesman declared that Trump’s campaign is “spiraling because their candidate’s toxic agenda continues to be a loser with voters.”

Trump made a similar recommendation for Biden to take a drug test back last September 2020 during a news conference.

“I’m willing to take a drug test,” Trump said. “I think [Biden] should too because he’s had a very uneven – I watched him with some of the – when he was with, you know – debating Pocahontas [Elizabeth Warren] and [Kamala Harris] who treated him so badly.”

“But I watched him, and he was out of it, right?” he added. “And then I watched him against Bernie Sanders. That—he was okay. I mean, he wasn’t great, but he wasn’t terrible. He was okay. It was a far cry from the way he—you know what I’m saying, I mean if you look at some of those debates.”

Trump then declared that “people say [Biden] was on performance-enhancing drugs” and have even written it.

“So let’s take a look at him – take a look,” the former president stated. “Why don’t you just check it? You can check out the internet. You’ll see plenty of people say it, and whether he is or not doesn’t matter, but I would love to take a test, and he can take a test, too.”
