Biden camp dodges answering if president plans to use performance-enhancing drugs before debate
SUMMARY
In the run-up to the CNN Presidential Debate, President Biden's campaign dodged direct questions about whether he plans to use performance-enhancing drugs, with spokesperson Lauren Hitt dismissing the accusations as false and desperate attempts by former President Trump to deflect from his record. Meanwhile, Trump's campaign directly refuted any plans for drug use, with national press secretary Karoline Leavitt asserting that Trump has "naturally elite stamina" and criticizing Biden's reluctance to take a drug test. Former White House physician Ronny Jackson and other Trump allies have raised concerns about Biden's mental acuity, suggesting that a drug test is necessary to address these issues.
