The White House declined to respond to allegations that President Joe Biden will be on performance-enhancing drugs ahead of his debate with former President Donald Trump Thursday night in Atlanta.
The Trump campaign has attempted to lower expectations for Biden as he prepared for the debate in Delaware and at Camp David over the past week, alleging that Biden will take illicit substances to explain why he might do well. The Biden campaign has accused Trump and his allies of “resorting to desperate, obviously false lies” with the attack, but White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said she would not “dignify that with an answer” as she fielded questions from reporters aboard Air Force One on Thursday afternoon en route to Georgia.
