Donald Trump keeps raising the bar of how far Republicans will go to spin
President Joe Biden�s debate performance. Reminder: it hasn�t even
happened yet.

During his rally in Racine, Wisconsin, on Tuesday, Trump suggested that if
Biden performs well during the upcoming presidential debate, he�ll have
hard drugs to thank.

�He�s gonna be so pumped up. He�s gonna be pumped up,� said Trump. �You
know all that stuff that was missing about a month ago from the White
House? What happened?�

As Trump was setting up his punchline, presumably about selling stolen
goods to pay for drugs, he lost the plot and pivoted into incoherently
rambling about Hunter Biden�s laptop.

�Who left it? Somebody left it. I wonder, let�s see. Somebody left the
laptop in an office of a gentleman who was supposed to fix the laptop from
hell,� said Trump. �He never picked it up, and somebody didn�t pick up
hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of cocaine. I wonder who that
could�ve been.�

�I don�t know�actually, I think it was Joe. Ha-ha,� he said, cuing the
audience that he had, against all odds, made it to the end of what he
wanted to say.

Obvious cognitive decline aside, Trump is once again mindlessly parroting
something he heard Sean Hannity say, which has quickly become a regular
Republican talking point: that Biden has a secret stash that saves him
during public speaking events. Trump previously suggested that Biden was
�higher than a kite� during the State of the Union address, and seems
adamant on keeping the company line as he heads into the first Biden-Trump
debate on June 27.

In fact, just Monday night, Hannity reiterated his claim to Trump�s
daughter-in-law and RNC Chair Lara Trump.

�I think the Joe Biden we see on the debate night is gonna be the guy that
we saw at the State of the Union,� Hannity said. �He�s going to be all
hyped up, hyper-caffeinated, whatever �it� is.�
