Dr. Ronny Jackson, former White House physician under Presidents Obama and Trump, has publicly called for President Biden to undergo a drug test before the upcoming presidential debate with Trump.
Jackson, concerned about Biden’s cognitive abilities, highlighted a lack of response to previous requests for cognitive testing similar to Trump’s.
Observing a marked change in Biden’s demeanor during the State of the Union address, Jackson speculated about potential medication use.
“I have sent five letters previously asking for President Biden to submit to a cognitive test, very similar to the one that President Trump got while he was president. And all five of those letters have gone completely ignored,” Dr. Jackson said.
“It’s really embarrassing as a former White House physician to have to do something like this. But we don’t have any choice based on what’s going on.”
With the debate approaching, Biden’s preparation at Camp David has raised suspicions of cognitive enhancement through medication adjustments.
“There was a Joe Biden that came out that was not similar at all to what we see on a day-to-day basis… And there’s really no way to explain that other than he was on something,” Dr. Jackson wrote.
“Part of that is probably experimenting with just getting the doses just right, because they have to treat his cognition, they have to give him something to help him think straighter, they have to give him something to wake him up for his alertness,” he said.
