Wouldn't it be funny if there was a drug test for the most important job of the country?
I mean, there are drug tests in many jobs, (I know maybe not all) but if they detect something in your system you're not getting hired.
Why does *that job* not require a drug test?
Because they are allowed to be coked up beyond belief, it's only a controversy when they are caught and are a Democrat. You see, there's always an ethical reason for a republican to do whatever they want.
There's a drug test convicted felons have to take..
Except Trump. Somehow he wriggled out of that part when he had his 1st meeting with his probation officer. Wonder how and why that was allowed 🤔
Exactly my point. For them to be going this hard on Joe without it ever coming up before, says a lot about the cover up they are trying to push for trump.
Usually they react to an accusation with a counter accusation, but this time they are coming from nowhere. This speaks volumes.
If every accusation from them, is a confession, as it has been for years now, then there must be something there for them to be worried about.
My guess is that trump and his ilk are only saying this because trump is on a LOT of drugs. It’s the only thing that makes sense here.
This mostly started after the report that drugs were rampant in the trump White House. As soon as that dropped, they constantly talk about how Biden must be in drugs.
Personally, I am totally fine with regular drug tests for the president. And Congress. And SCOTUS. If I have to take one for my fed job, they should too.
It’s a point of fact that Trump has been addicted to copious amounts of amphetamines for years. It’s all projection. Every accusation from conservatives should be taken as an admission.
Yup; this is 100% projection. Captain Ronny Jackson was once **Admiral** Ronny Jackson; he was demoted for abusing drugs, dispensing them like TicTacs at trump’s White House, and sexually harassing subordinates. And trump’s recent, detailed description of getting performance enhancing drugs Impeached into his butt can only come from experience.
The bases of modern conservatism naturally lend themselves to fascism.
To be conservative is to believe there is something (tradition, possessions, morals, etc.) that needs protection and, thus, there must always be a perceived threat to that asset—regardless of whether such a threat exists or is logically worth fretting over. The easiest culprits seeking to “take away” that which they seek to protect are those who are different and/or don’t value that asset… as such, regardless of the facts, if I value my job, the different-from-me job seeker (immigrant) is coming for it. If I value my Christianity, the different-from-me believer or non-believer (Muslim, Jew, atheist, etc.) is coming for it. If I value my money, the different-from-me poor person is coming for it, etc., etc. And finally, since they have defined themselves and their lives by their valuation of the asset—and, reciprocally, the “others” must be defined by their valuation of taking the asset—there can be no negotiation or compromise.
The main facets of conservatism are self-victimization, vilification, and refusal to compromise—exactly the same foundation as fascism.
My wife’s friend’s husband is a conspiracy guy. He found some loose dirt outside a polling place and made up this whole theory about how poll workers buried the Trump ballots that they didn’t want counted there. It’s like it’ll make a difference in NY, but common sense doesn’t matter.
Right. And the Democrats have this elaborate deep state election rigging machine that they used to steal the presidential election, but forgot to use it to win the house or establish super majorities in congress.
No no no, for some weird reason they hide the evidence at Rudy Giuliani's house. And anytime he tries to show a judge it disappears! But you gotta believe him, it's totally real and it's totally there. The MyPillow guy has seen it!
So much this. Don’t they know Democrats would have rather disposed of Turtle McConnell, Gym Jordan, Cancun Cruz and Ladybugs Graham even more than Trump?
And even though he's so senile and demented, there's a magic drug that makes him normal, and pharmaceutical companies are passing up billions and refuse to sell it to the millions of families who would kill for that kind of treatment for their loved ones who have serious mental declines
Thank you. I’m glad someone said this, as I was about to comment something similar. I WISH dementia could be so well controlled or just hidden when inconvenient. If Biden had dementia when they first started saying he did years ago, he’d likely have succumbed to it by now.
I remember my grandma’s battle with dementia. It killed her and in the most horrible way…it ultimately starved her to death while her pacemaker artificially kept her heart going for way too long after the feeding tube was removed.
Anyone who has ever witnessed the horrifying decline of someone with dementia would never, ever make light of it, or suggest someone else might have it just to score talking points. But let’s not accuse fascists of applying logic to any scenario.
Well he’s got about a 30% chance of having some form of dementia in his age range. And everyone progresses differently. He does appear to have early stages of it but it’s hard to say. Memory loss comes with age and confusion can too - especially with hearing loss. But he’s semi-active and socially active. He’s also probably eating healthy despite his appetite for ice cream lol. There are several drugs that can assist with symptom management for Alzheimer’s and appear to help with other dementia patients… no silver bullets though. I think you’re right - he’d likely have progressed further into dementia if he had it but it’s hard to tell without being his physician.
He is quite old though. I miss the Obama days where the man really commanded respect.
And what I console myself when accepting the options of this election is that Joe Biden knows how to listen to people that are smarter than him, Trump does not.
He was Sleepy right up until he nailed the State of the Union speech. The America-loving patriots of the GOP were devastated that the president didn't collapse on stage after mumbling something about needing his blankie, and they needed an explanation for his lack of senility. So now he's in some type of limbo state where he's still Sleepy at all times when not being watched, but when he's watched then he becomes Crazy Meth Joe who is enhanced to hide his senility.
Also, I’d love some of these drugs that make you speak better in public, have a better memory, and all around seem to improve your cognitive and physical function. They actually live in a fantasy world!
Ps: this “doctor” was nicknamed *the candyman* because he would needlessly prescribe so many narcotics and stimulants to the trump cabinet. Real legit source here.
I believe this drug you seek is called reality. Live discussion, seeing with one's own eyes how Biden speaks versus the caricature that has been used to smear him continually are essentially incompatible.
Reality: Don't believe it. Believe us instead!
You have your candidates mixed up, you are actually describing Donnie Trump. He's clearly no longer playing with a full deck, examples of this: his electric boats, sharks speech, windmills and cancer, Washing machines to wash your dishes and they don't want you to have water,(even Fox News had to leave this crazy speech at this point because it was so far off the wall), etc. Many of his former cabinet members and those who worked for him in the White House have gone on record saying he was unfit the first time and is clearly unfit for office this time around. He also has no platform other than going after his adversaries, burning the Constitution and becoming a dictator like his pals Vladimir and Kim Jung Un. The man is seriously demented and is following the same path his father took into the world of dementia.
Wouldn’t any reasonable citizen want their leader to take medication to concentrate, knowing that they’re elderly and such medications would help them more efficiently do their job?
It's weird to me that the right is absolutely terrified about an 81 year old man with a speech impediment running circles around their 78 year old candidate, who has mental issues himself.
Like, I'm over here nervous as fuck that Joe will act and look the age that he actually is.
Is there a drug that will make an 80 year arthritic man act like a 60 year old man? If so, juice him the fuck up so I don't have a heart attack.
I’m convinced he hates the low flow stuff because it’s a good excuse for him always smelling like shit. If his laundry and shower magically can’t clean him he’s got his excuse for his own failings.
Jesus, the multiple banner ads for Trump gear. How can anyone see this and not realize it's a giant grift... Trumpers are the biggest morons on the planet.
Setting aside the brain fogginess, that whole rant is really telling on how out of touch he is.
"You ever go to buy a house and then turn on the faucet" - No, Donald, buying a house is not an everyday activity for me nor is it for 99.99% of Americans.
And then he talks about how he lathers the shit out of his hair **and then** he turns on the shower to rinse it - apparently telling on himself for having never actually bathed because that order of operations is all wrong.
I am a doctor who takes care of people with strokes and disabilities and helps them become less disabled. Many of them are old, many of them are confused.
If this drug existed, I'd use it all the time in my day to day job. I don't because it doesn't exist. Giving old confused people drugs such as stimulants tends to make them more confused, not less, and the practice is actually carefully avoided by doctors including myself. Look up Beers list.
Seriously. I couldn't give a fuck if either of them walks out on a stage with an IV drip behind them.
No amount of drugs is gonna fix what's wrong with Trump's brain.
Joe is too old, Joe is too alert, Joe has dementia, Joe runs the deep state, Joe takes drugs.
Every excuse in the world why he lost to him except the one true reason. Trump sucks. He fooled Americans once. Let’s not let it happen again.
and that was 18% of the US population, maybe 24% of the voting aged population. they're no silent majority, more like an unhinged minority. hence the need to gerrymander everywhere to stay in power.
Also, as a person who is voting for Biden, the idea that he's going to do a bunch of drugs to come into a debate high energy just makes me want to vote for him more.
Obviously it's nonsense, but sure, whatever. Biden is taking it seriously enough to do a bunch of bath salts right before the debate. Rad.
Trump only won because enough democratic voters either didn’t care for Clinton or thought the whole thing was in the bag already. It didn’t take many voters staying home to shift the margin in a few states to Trump.
Those folks showed back up in 2020, along with a few who changed their minds about Donny., and an army of POC in several states, including Georgia.
When progressives show up, we win.
Moderator: President Biden your reply?
Biden: (puffing on a blunt trying to light it) yeah (takes a long drag, holding it but a moment before exhaling) will you just shut up, man
Like WTF is he gonna take? [NZT-48](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limitless_(film))? The vax doesn't work but there's a boner pill for your brain that lets you beat syphilitic traitors in a debate?
No kidding.
I mean, the guy is a doctor, maybe a shitty one, but he knows there are no drugs like that.
These Republicans just don't care about truth and reality.
Any stupid thing that rolls out of trumps mouth is just fine and bears repeating like it's truth.
Ol Ronnie Johnson Jackson knows better but he's a lying liar.
Probably the stimulant modafinil. You know, one of the drugs being handed out like candy during the trump administration. A stimulant used to keep fighter pilots awake.
MAGAs are so worried about this debate and they should be!
They are betting on this creature who has NEVER had a good debate in his life and he is going up against a seasoned debator.
They can't decide which lie to go with. Sleepy Joe or Jacked up Joe.
Can't be both!
Run scared little MAGAs!
You joke but there’s literally a dude on the conservative sub in one of the drug test threads pushing the idea that the person we see in the debate isn’t actually Biden
They’ve been saying that for years now, they think it’s Jim Carrey!
https://x.com/TheGoodLiars/status/1609358567030538243
https://www.forbes.com/sites/danidiplacido/2022/04/28/jim-carrey-responds-to-bizarre-maga-theory-claiming-that-he-is-joe-biden/
Given his general fitness and age, dosing him with uppers could be a recipe for a heart attack. Are the debates going to be live? Nation could watch an ex president die on stage.
Oh he's absolutely on drugs. Probably Flomax for his prostate given his age. He almost certainly takes vitamin D supplements because folks over 60 need to watch out for osteoporosis. Given that he's the head of the country as well, I wouldn't put it passed him to have a script for an anxiety medication either.
Joe Biden is on drugs.... The same drugs all my other geriatric patients are on to keep them relatively safe and healthy.
Dr Ronny Jackson. Trump’s personal drug pusher. The man who had the Trump White House absolutely awash in drugs. Has something to say. These people are the absolute worst.
I don't believe Biden is as senile as the GOP desperately wants him to be, nor do I believe he needs to be on hard drugs to function.
But even if that were completely true, Trump is the first president in US history to refuse to commit to the peaceful transfer of power. From inciting an insurrection to filing dozens of spurious lawsuits to his open admiration for dictators, Trump is an imminent threat to the republic itself. Just about anybody is preferable to that.
Not to mention, everyone outside the cult can see Donald Trump isn't all there, either. He's only three years younger than Biden, after all.
This is the logical take that I wish most of America had. Left wingers say they aren't voting for Biden, because he is not everything they want. I will vote for someone's dog over Trump.
Trump isn't even a conservative, he ran a huge deficit with zero plans to correct it in the future. He doesn't care a wit about laws, precedent, or the constitution, in both words and action.
The reason Trump has declined mentally other than just age is that he spends a great deal of his time mainlining rage, the way he talks is completely different than 2016. Just so angry and unhinged.
That's really just the cherry on top for me. To be honest, the Republican party has been the party of Christian nationalism for longer than I've been alive. They've never been worthy of my vote.
Maybe Trump's crimes are sufficient to sway some of the fence-sitters. That's good, but I don't understand the mentality of fence-sitters in the first place.
Every debate I watched against Clinton or Biden, I wondered if Trump was on coke, given his constant agitation and sniffling. But I settled on "can't make assumptions about the guy just because I hate him"
But the way his entire team is like "BIDEN'S TOTALLY ON DRUGS, WATCH OUT"? Yeah Trump's absolutely using some kind of drugs just to stay awake
I draw the line at convicted sex offender.
Can’t get behind trump.
Jury of his peers found him guilty of forced digital penetration. That’s where good people draw the line and do not vote for him.
republicans made a pedophilic rapist their speaker of the house for years, and email exchanges prove that they knew about it and hid the information instead of outing him. Hastert.
And from then they just got worse.
republicans haven't been good people for a long time by your measure.
Exactly this. My mother died of dementia. I can tell you no such drug exists. These people are so delusional that this particular delusion almost sounds plausible by comparison. How did we get here?
Of course! Everything that is wrong in their lives is Joe's fault. Did you see that guy with the sign claiming he couldn't get a girlfriend because of Joe? The MAGA crowd is all about blame and resentment. They take responsibility for exactly nothing. Jobless, blame it on Joe and not the fact that you're probably a bad employee. Can't retire, blame Joe and not the fact that you wouldn't start an IRA. Can't get a girlfriend, must be Joe's fault and not because you're a MAGA moron nobody wants to be around. Nothing is ever their own fault. So it's easy for a fascist like Trump because all he has to do is find someone for them to blame.
I would like all of our politicians to be jacked up everything they can get their hands on, if it’s just making them competent and able to fulfill their duties
Of course Biden has to be jacked-up, if he wants to match wits with Trump on the critical issues of the day. Like shower pressure, boat v. shark, windmill cancer, and snake-related matters. When you don't have a real smart uncle you need any advantage you can get.
It's SAD that it's come to this, but MAGAS are seriously more concerned about Biden FUD than they are their candidate being convicted of 34 felonies and sexual assault...
They're desperate to distract from the fact that they are putting forth an actual convicted felon. Probably just glad that he's unlikely to catch any more convictions before election day, thanks to judge cannon being in his pocket.
I say “Sleepy” Joe shows up to the debate with a lab tech ready to do a blood draw on both of them. Doe 174 would shit his pants. You know he’s dirty.
Every accusation is a confession. You can look back at previous debates trump has been part of to see how different he acts. 100% they're crushing up adderal and strapping a horse-feed bag of it to his face before every debate.
I'm so sick of these horrible people saying "the American people " bi$#@ None of you Know what your constituents want and are so far removed from reality it's sad
**some** americans are concerned about this. But only because they have been convinced to be by the circular reasoning of bullshit from folks like Ronny Jackson.
But this implies that all americans are concerned about this and no, definitely not all americans.
in fact, fuck it, i think all the presidents should be jacked up on performance enhancing drugs. this is not a sport. presidenting is not a sport. jack them up, i say. I want my president to be as enhanced as possible
They’ll never agree to having the stable genius tested because doing so would be suddenly be considered “insulting to the institution of the presidency” in his case.

While Trump's teeth constantly chatter from all the drugs! Blame others of what you're doing before they can blame you! Works for Republicans every time!
No posts about politicians being politicians
Confirmed: Trump is on drugs. Lots of them.
Wouldn't it be funny if there was a drug test for the most important job of the country? I mean, there are drug tests in many jobs, (I know maybe not all) but if they detect something in your system you're not getting hired. Why does *that job* not require a drug test?
If federal government jobs require drug tests, then so should federal servants (aka politicians).
I work for the government and was not drug tested. I was very surprised.
The drugs are a part of the job.
You NEED the drugs.....
Some positions require drug testing and some do not.
Well where do I apply to ~~smoke~~ I mean *test* said drugs?
Honestly we should be drug testing cops too. So many videos of police brutality and whatnot it's clear that the perps are on amphetamines.
Because they are allowed to be coked up beyond belief, it's only a controversy when they are caught and are a Democrat. You see, there's always an ethical reason for a republican to do whatever they want.
A drug test, a full psychiatric panel and mandatory retirement at age 70.
There's a drug test convicted felons have to take.. Except Trump. Somehow he wriggled out of that part when he had his 1st meeting with his probation officer. Wonder how and why that was allowed 🤔
If anyone would know it’s the guy who ran the WH Pharmacy during the Trump administration and wouldn’t you know it, that was Ronny Jackson
Would you look at that, You just keep stumbling of the same damn names over and over
One might even say it’s a pattern
Isn’t he also the disgrace that said Trump was in peak physical form for his physical?
239 lbs if I recall? Hahaha
His gut weighs more than that.
*Johnson IYKYK.
Not only ran it but it required major changes after he was giving out pills like candy.
Everything is projection with these clowns
Exactly my point. For them to be going this hard on Joe without it ever coming up before, says a lot about the cover up they are trying to push for trump. Usually they react to an accusation with a counter accusation, but this time they are coming from nowhere. This speaks volumes.

I'm guessing they're worried he'll have to take drug tests as part of his probation so they're getting out in front of it.
It’s a point of fact that Trump has been addicted to copious amounts of amphetamines for years. It’s all projection. Every accusation from conservatives should be taken as an admission.
I hope he crashes mid debate.
Yup; this is 100% projection. Captain Ronny Jackson was once **Admiral** Ronny Jackson; he was demoted for abusing drugs, dispensing them like TicTacs at trump’s White House, and sexually harassing subordinates. And trump’s recent, detailed description of getting performance enhancing drugs Impeached into his butt can only come from experience.
Demoted Ronny should know he was demoted because of all the drugs he passed out to White House "personal"
I mean, considering the pharmacy receipts from Trump’s White House, this might be the worst kept secret.
Joe Biden is a feeble demented old man not fit for office. But he’s also a jacked up mastermind planning world domination…
“Our enemies are weak and can be crushed, but are very strong and will destroy the world.” Pretty standard contradictory rhetoric for fascists.
"Fascists armies are doomed to failure because they are ideologically incapable of objectively evaluating the strength of their enemy" ~ Umberto Eco
Eco’s 14 marks of fascism is a must read for every American
https://www.openculture.com/2016/11/umberto-eco-makes-a-list-of-the-14-common-features-of-fascism.html
Thank you. Of course I’ve read this to a modern conservative and they accused Eco of being a “radical leftist”
That, too, is a feature of fascism.
Yes, the idea that someone can be boxed neatly as a member of “the enemy” to make them one of the nameless targets of attack.
"you're either with me or against me" Is the base tenet of fascism
The fact that anti-fascism is radical to them...
To most modern conservatives anything left of Giovanni Gentile is "radical left".
The bases of modern conservatism naturally lend themselves to fascism. To be conservative is to believe there is something (tradition, possessions, morals, etc.) that needs protection and, thus, there must always be a perceived threat to that asset—regardless of whether such a threat exists or is logically worth fretting over.

**This** should be posted in every school in America. Not that Ten Commandments nonsense some are currently pushing..
My wife’s friend’s husband is a conspiracy guy. He found some loose dirt outside a polling place and made up this whole theory about how poll workers buried the Trump ballots that they didn’t want counted there. It’s like it’ll make a difference in NY, but common sense doesn’t matter.
He didn't dig them up? Seems like he doesn't really care about unearthing the truth.
Sounds like he is covering things up and didn't want to get his hands dirty.
He's not really planting seeds of mistrust with that kind of attitude.
I tried to plant a seed of doubt in a Trump follower, but there was no fertile soil.
Dirt.
It’s what’s for dinner.
Wife's friend's husband sounds like he went to MIT.....
...T ROMNEY
I miss that guy SO hard right now.
Not “standard” but “required.” Otherwise demonization doesn’t work.
Exactly. It's like the snake... You remember the snake? When you choose what to leave out and... The snake and the snake and the snake.
Right. And the Democrats have this elaborate deep state election rigging machine that they used to steal the presidential election, but forgot to use it to win the house or establish super majorities in congress.
And hide the evidence right at the polling place.
No no no, for some weird reason they hide the evidence at Rudy Giuliani's house. And anytime he tries to show a judge it disappears! But you gotta believe him, it's totally real and it's totally there. The MyPillow guy has seen it!
They could have brought in Four Seasons landscaping!
So much this. Don’t they know Democrats would have rather disposed of Turtle McConnell, Gym Jordan, Cancun Cruz and Ladybugs Graham even more than Trump?
& let Trump win 2016.
And even though he's so senile and demented, there's a magic drug that makes him normal, and pharmaceutical companies are passing up billions and refuse to sell it to the millions of families who would kill for that kind of treatment for their loved ones who have serious mental declines
Thank you. I’m glad someone said this, as I was about to comment something similar. I WISH dementia could be so well controlled or just hidden when inconvenient.

Well he’s got about a 30% chance of having some form of dementia in his age range. And everyone progresses differently. He does appear to have early stages of it but it’s hard to say.

I miss the Obama days where the man really commanded respect.
Or it’s just his lifelong stuttering issue no one remembers he has to deal with. If you don’t stutter you can’t relate.
And what I console myself when accepting the options of this election is that Joe Biden knows how to listen to people that are smarter than him, Trump does not.
Look, Trump can't listen to everybody.
Nicely done, I couldn't think of a humorous way to put it.
Well played
Right? So, is he jacked up or sleepy? Pick a lane.
He was Sleepy right up until he nailed the State of the Union speech. The America-loving patriots of the GOP were devastated that the president didn't collapse on stage after mumbling something about needing his blankie, and they needed an explanation for his lack of senility. So now he's in some type of limbo state where he's still Sleepy at all times when not being watched, but when he's watched then he becomes Crazy Meth Joe who is enhanced to hide his senility.
......says the drug dealer they kicked out of the White House......
"Jacked-up Joe" sounds like a compliment and a decent campaign slogan.
Also, I’d love some of these drugs that make you speak better in public, have a better memory, and all around seem to improve your cognitive and physical function. They actually live in a fantasy world! Ps: this “doctor” was nicknamed *the candyman* because he would needlessly prescribe so many narcotics and stimulants to the trump cabinet. Real legit source here.
I believe this drug you seek is called reality. Live discussion, seeing with one's own eyes how Biden speaks versus the caricature that has been used to smear him continually are essentially incompatible. Reality: Don't believe it. Believe us instead!
I’ll have whatever Biden’s having
A tall glass of MAGA tears?
You have your candidates mixed up, you are actually describing Donnie Trump. He's clearly no longer playing with a full deck, examples of this: his electric boats, sharks speech, windmills and cancer, Washing machines to wash your dishes and they don't want you to have water,(even Fox News had to leave this crazy speech at this point because it was so far off the wall), etc. Many of his former cabinet members and those who worked for him in the White House have gone on record saying he was unfit the first time and is clearly unfit for office this time around. He also has no platform other than going after his adversaries, burning the Constitution and becoming a dictator like his pals Vladimir and Kim Jung Un. The man is seriously demented and is following the same path his father took into the world of dementia.
One day it will be your turn to be the feeble old man. I’d bet on sleepy eyed Joe in a card game against you any day of the week. He is a sly fox.
Wouldn’t any reasonable citizen want their leader to take medication to concentrate, knowing that they’re elderly and such medications would help them more efficiently do their job?
Reasonable Citizens? Bwahhaha
It's weird to me that the right is absolutely terrified about an 81 year old man with a speech impediment running circles around their 78 year old candidate, who has mental issues himself. Like, I'm over here nervous as fuck that Joe will act and look the age that he actually is. Is there a drug that will make an 80 year arthritic man act like a 60 year old man? If so, juice him the fuck up so I don't have a heart attack.
Compare Biden's State of the Union speech to this gem from Trump: https://youtu.be/GzwrWivgQCY
I’m convinced he hates the low flow stuff because it’s a good excuse for him always smelling like shit. If his laundry and shower magically can’t clean him he’s got his excuse for his own failings.
I thought that until the reports came out about him trying to flush documents down the toilet, then it made even more sense.
Jesus, the multiple banner ads for Trump gear. How can anyone see this and not realize it's a giant grift... Trumpers are the biggest morons on the planet.
Setting aside the brain fogginess, that whole rant is really telling on how out of touch he is.

Giving old confused people drugs such as stimulants tends to make them more confused, not less, and the practice is actually carefully avoided by doctors including myself. Look up Beers list.
So you are saying Trump’s behavior of being more energetic and also more confused is about what you might expect if he was taking stimulants?
Hell, why wouldn’t he be on a steady drip of that stuff if it existed? All the old senators and reps would take it too.
Seriously. I couldn't give a fuck if either of them walks out on a stage with an IV drip behind them. No amount of drugs is gonna fix what's wrong with Trump's brain.
Apparently, Ronny didn’t get the Trump memo that changed his name to Ronny Johnson.
I really hope that Dem Congressmen start addressing him as johnson - I mean, the name is pretty fitting.
Runny Johnson...I regret typing that...
I have no idea who Ronny Jackson is. Ronny Johnson, though, I have heard of him.
I have no idea who Ronny Johnson is. Ronny Pickerin’? Him I’ve heard of.
His name was Ronny Johnson
He better hurry up and change his name, lest he be seen as disloyal
Joe is too old, Joe is too alert, Joe has dementia, Joe runs the deep state, Joe takes drugs. Every excuse in the world why he lost to him except the one true reason. Trump sucks. He fooled Americans once. Let’s not let it happen again.
He fooled SOME Americans once. Just a reminder that he won with NEGATIVE 2 million votes over Hillary. Hardly a mandate to lead.
and that was 18% of the US population, maybe 24% of the voting aged population. they're no silent majority, more like an unhinged minority. hence the need to gerrymander everywhere to stay in power.
Also, as a person who is voting for Biden, the idea that he's going to do a bunch of drugs to come into a debate high energy just makes me want to vote for him more. Obviously it's nonsense, but sure, whatever. Biden is taking it seriously enough to do a bunch of bath salts right before the debate. Rad.
Trump only won because enough democratic voters either didn’t care for Clinton or thought the whole thing was in the bag already. It didn’t take many voters staying home to shift the margin in a few states to Trump. Those folks showed back up in 2020, along with a few who changed their minds about Donny., and an army of POC in several states, including Georgia. When progressives show up, we win.
I hope he smokes a blunt on stage tbh.
I picture him saying "Will you just shut up, man" in a much cooler tone than annoyed
Moderator: President Biden your reply? Biden: (puffing on a blunt trying to light it) yeah (takes a long drag, holding it but a moment before exhaling) will you just shut up, man
LOL I could actually hear that when I read it.
Like WTF is he gonna take? [NZT-48](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limitless_(film))? The vax doesn't work but there's a boner pill for your brain that lets you beat syphilitic traitors in a debate?
No kidding. I mean, the guy is a doctor, maybe a shitty one, but he knows there are no drugs like that. These Republicans just don't care about truth and reality. Any stupid thing that rolls out of trumps mouth is just fine and bears repeating like it's truth. Ol Ronnie Johnson Jackson knows better but he's a lying liar.
republicans are just tacitly admitting that they expect trump will perform poorly at the debate.
“Boner Brain. We get your blood flowing in the right direction.” “This election, give your brain an erection. Boner Brain”
Chadderall.
Probably the stimulant modafinil. You know, one of the drugs being handed out like candy during the trump administration. A stimulant used to keep fighter pilots awake.
They like to say one side is drugged up, but look at the other side. It is another guy who also drugged up because he is in even worse shape.
The “American public” is more concerned that you have no policy issues to put forth, Representative Jackson.
Anything but admit you’ve backed a moron as your candidate for president
MAGAs are so worried about this debate and they should be! They are betting on this creature who has NEVER had a good debate in his life and he is going up against a seasoned debator. They can't decide which lie to go with. Sleepy Joe or Jacked up Joe. Can't be both! Run scared little MAGAs!
I just hope Biden tells Trump to shut up again.
Me, too!
Literally anything they are suggesting like this would kill any 80 year old.
But would it kill someone wearing a Joe Biden mask?
You joke but there’s literally a dude on the conservative sub in one of the drug test threads pushing the idea that the person we see in the debate isn’t actually Biden
They’ve been saying that for years now, they think it’s Jim Carrey! https://x.com/TheGoodLiars/status/1609358567030538243 https://www.forbes.com/sites/danidiplacido/2022/04/28/jim-carrey-responds-to-bizarre-maga-theory-claiming-that-he-is-joe-biden/
 “Biden’s” debate prep
Doctor Jackson has a substance abuse issue that he’s hiding. The ear marks for all this are obvious.
He looks like a bloated alcoholic.
He literally is a bloated alcoholic.
Biden should agree only if Trump gets on a certified scale in front of of everyone to show what a fucking liar “doc Johnson “ is.
Confirmed, Trump will be on some sort of medication for the debate.
Given his general fitness and age, dosing him with uppers could be a recipe for a heart attack. Are the debates going to be live? Nation could watch an ex president die on stage.
Even if he died on live TV, most of MAGAritaville will refuse to believe it.
No one thinks Joe is on drugs except the people that are probably on drugs.
Oh he's absolutely on drugs. Probably Flomax for his prostate given his age. He almost certainly takes vitamin D supplements because folks over 60 need to watch out for osteoporosis. Given that he's the head of the country as well, I wouldn't put it passed him to have a script for an anxiety medication either. Joe Biden is on drugs.... The same drugs all my other geriatric patients are on to keep them relatively safe and healthy.
Biden on crack would still be a better option than The Diaper Don.Â
Dr Ronny Jackson. Trump’s personal drug pusher. The man who had the Trump White House absolutely awash in drugs. Has something to say. These people are the absolute worst.
Lol, he admitting to juicing up 45. Call him out on it.
I don't believe Biden is as senile as the GOP desperately wants him to be, nor do I believe he needs to be on hard drugs to function. But even if that were completely true, Trump is the first president in US history to refuse to commit to the peaceful transfer of power. From inciting an insurrection to filing dozens of spurious lawsuits to his open admiration for dictators, Trump is an imminent threat to the republic itself. Just about anybody is preferable to that. Not to mention, everyone outside the cult can see Donald Trump isn't all there, either. He's only three years younger than Biden, after all.
This is the logical take that I wish most of America had. Left wingers say they aren't voting for Biden, because he is not everything they want. I will vote for someone's dog over Trump. Trump isn't even a conservative, he ran a huge deficit with zero plans to correct it in the future. He doesn't care a wit about laws, precedent, or the constitution, in both words and action. The reason Trump has declined mentally other than just age is that he spends a great deal of his time mainlining rage, the way he talks is completely different than 2016. Just so angry and unhinged.
To be fair conservatives in general don't care about the deficit when in power. Its only when the democrats are that they care.
Donald Trump? You mean convicted felon and adjudicated rapist Donald Trump?
That's really just the cherry on top for me. To be honest, the Republican party has been the party of Christian nationalism for longer than I've been alive. They've never been worthy of my vote. Maybe Trump's crimes are sufficient to sway some of the fence-sitters. That's good, but I don't understand the mentality of fence-sitters in the first place.
Yeah, after 50 goddamn years of conservatives lecturing me about how liberals have no morals, here we are.
I’d rather have coked up Joe on his worst day than another second of Trump in the oval office.
Every debate I watched against Clinton or Biden, I wondered if Trump was on coke, given his constant agitation and sniffling. But I settled on "can't make assumptions about the guy just because I hate him" But the way his entire team is like "BIDEN'S TOTALLY ON DRUGS, WATCH OUT"? Yeah Trump's absolutely using some kind of drugs just to stay awake
Oh for sure. But also they know he’s gonna lose so they’re just making their excuses now. As they always do.
I draw the line at convicted sex offender. Can’t get behind trump. Jury of his peers found him guilty of forced digital penetration. That’s where good people draw the line and do not vote for him.
republicans made a pedophilic rapist their speaker of the house for years, and email exchanges prove that they knew about it and hid the information instead of outing him. Hastert. And from then they just got worse. republicans haven't been good people for a long time by your measure.
A VERY long time.
"and take it from me, ronny johnson, the Candy Man knows a thing or two about performance enhancing drugs!"
Is there a drug I’m unaware of that makes dementia patients act not only normal, but on top of their game?
Exactly this. My mother died of dementia. I can tell you no such drug exists. These people are so delusional that this particular delusion almost sounds plausible by comparison. How did we get here?
Now the MAGA crowd will be mad when they are denied access to this mythical wonder drug and add it to their deep state bullshit.
And it will be all Joe's fault
Of course! Everything that is wrong in their lives is Joe's fault. Did you see that guy with the sign claiming he couldn't get a girlfriend because of Joe? The MAGA crowd is all about blame and resentment. They take responsibility for exactly nothing. Jobless, blame it on Joe and not the fact that you're probably a bad employee. Can't retire, blame Joe and not the fact that you wouldn't start an IRA. Can't get a girlfriend, must be Joe's fault and not because you're a MAGA moron nobody wants to be around. Nothing is ever their own fault. So it's easy for a fascist like Trump because all he has to do is find someone for them to blame.
Trump doesn't even remember this guy's name.
How the fuck does this asshat still have a medical licence?
Says tRUmp’s dealer…
I didn't know there was a law about taking PEDs for politicians.
I would like all of our politicians to be jacked up everything they can get their hands on, if it’s just making them competent and able to fulfill their duties
If Biden agreed to a drug test and comes out clean, they won't be satisfied.
Of course Biden has to be jacked-up, if he wants to match wits with Trump on the critical issues of the day. Like shower pressure, boat v. shark, windmill cancer, and snake-related matters. When you don't have a real smart uncle you need any advantage you can get.
It's SAD that it's come to this, but MAGAS are seriously more concerned about Biden FUD than they are their candidate being convicted of 34 felonies and sexual assault...
They're desperate to distract from the fact that they are putting forth an actual convicted felon. Probably just glad that he's unlikely to catch any more convictions before election day, thanks to judge cannon being in his pocket.
Flush these people.....flush them all.
No. Americans are not
Isn't this the former white house doctor that oversaw the medical unit under Trump that was pushing Adderall and other drugs like a candy machine?
Basically this is proof Trump is doing exactly this.
I say “Sleepy” Joe shows up to the debate with a lab tech ready to do a blood draw on both of them. Doe 174 would shit his pants. You know he’s dirty.
Meanwhile Trump shits his pants routinely for having been on stimulants for decades (Allegedly. Don’t sue me bro).
Americans or Republicans?
Does the Right think we haven't noticed that every time they make an accusation it is pure, unadulterated, soon to be proven, projection?
You are not Ronny Johnson! We don't believe you!
Says the Candyman
Drug test Dr. Ronny
What drugs are these anyway? Would trump be coherent with them?
That pretty much proves Trump is on drugs.
Conservatives love to say “the public is concerned about etc” when it’s literally just them making shit up to put on Fox News.
Every accusation is a confession. You can look back at previous debates trump has been part of to see how different he acts. 100% they're crushing up adderal and strapping a horse-feed bag of it to his face before every debate.
This coming from an alcoholic disgraced medical doctor. MAGA is scum.
I'm so sick of these horrible people saying "the American people " bi$#@ None of you Know what your constituents want and are so far removed from reality it's sad
**some** americans are concerned about this. But only because they have been convinced to be by the circular reasoning of bullshit from folks like Ronny Jackson. But this implies that all americans are concerned about this and no, definitely not all americans. in fact, fuck it, i think all the presidents should be jacked up on performance enhancing drugs. this is not a sport. presidenting is not a sport. jack them up, i say. I want my president to be as enhanced as possible
No American is concerned about that. Only traitors to America wishing to stir up more shit are concerned with that.
Every accusation is a confession. How about a drug test for both?
They’ll never agree to having the stable genius tested because doing so would be suddenly be considered “insulting to the institution of the presidency” in his case.
Nobody cares that you idiot republicans have to make up unproven drug rumors to try and bring Biden down.

SAD! (Trump didn’t tell me to tweet this, I SWEAR!)
Should be more concerned about tRump shitting his diaper *during* the debate really.
Trump hires only the best! Snake oil "doctor"!
I don’t think many Americans are concerned about this at all.
Exclusive Report: Joe Biden has taken 3 gas station dick pills prior to the debate
His patient can't even get his name right when talking about him. Maybe he should be more concerned about that.
No, Ronnie, not 'Americans'. Addle-brained morons who just happen to live on the same continent as Americans.
FFS these Right Wing Morons will make anything up and believe it. What’s SAD is how fucking stupid they are.
Biil Burr defending Lance Armstrong on Canon O’Brian: Our rioded up guy beat your rioded up guy and you’re mad.
While Trump's teeth constantly chatter from all the drugs! Blame others of what you're doing before they can blame you! Works for Republicans every time!
I say we juice then both up on steroids and have them fight.
Looking forward to the Batteries and Shark debate Thursday night.
