(Atlanta, GA) — Some Republicans are calling on President Biden to take a drug test ahead of Thursday’s presidential debate. Texas Congressman Ronny Jackson says he sent a note to the White House demanding the president be tested for performance enhancing drugs. Jackson says Biden had to be on something when he gave his State of the Union speech in March. He says the President was in rare form, with tons of energy.
Democrats are encouraging President Biden to bring up Trump’s hush money conviction on Thursday. They say the conviction speaks to Trump’s behavior and character. New York Governor Kathy Hochul says President Biden should make abortion one of his talking points on Thursday night. She says female voters should be reminded that one out of three American women live under an abortion ban.
