texas rep. Ronny Jackson is among those who have demanded that Biden take part in a drug test before and after Thursday's debate. Jackson, who served as Trump's White House physician and medical adviser... [said] "If President Biden needs to take performance enhancing drugs in order to participate in this week's debate, then it is imperative that he and his physician disclose that to the American people," Jackson said.

In that case, anything that you wanted to disclose to the American people there, Ronny? It's always just breathless, impotent projection...

Does anybody else find it a little sad that Ronny Jackson simps for Trump when Trump can't even remember his name when talking about him? Or did he just change his name to Ronny Johnson so that the god-king doesn't have to be wrong?

I mean, I would find it sad if I weren't completely out of sympathy for these Trump sycophants who let Trump talk shit about them publicly so that they can cling to power a little longer. Especially the shitheels who criticized Trump and now find themselves kissing the ring and bending the knee to get that VP nom.

Find it all sad, would be more sympathetic though if they weren't literally fascist psychopaths that want to burn down the world so that nobody can directly focus on the fact that they are bald, broke, gay and their father never told them, "I love you".

I'm okay with both participants performing a drugs test.

Probably the only time I agree on a both sides argument. Hell, while we're at it, lets drug test the house and senate too.

The cartel will start lobbying, because of loosing their biggest outlet.

projection…

Hmm, so Trump needs before and after debate drugs? Of course amphetamines would be the classical far right choice, but then there's the whole opioid crisis thing going on... choices, choices...
