Podcast host Jack Hopkins has a tweet with 1M views speculating Biden might've been surreptitiously drugged Thursday [View all]

I'm not familiar with his tweets or show, but other DUers have posted his tweets, and his podcast guests have included Frank Figliuzzi, Stephanie Wolkoff and Lev Parnas, among others, in recent months.

I posted Friday that I thought cold medication could have been responsible for Biden's shockingly bad debate performance, and yesterday Newsweek had an opinion piece from doctors saying the same thing: https://www.newsweek.com/did-cold-medications-affect-bidens-debate-performance-1919099 .

Hopkins considered that possibility but doesn't think it's likely. His tweet, with 1 million views, 15K likes, nearly 5K replies and nearly 5K reposts:

Since I haven’t seen many others saying this, I’m going to. Given the pep, energy, clarity and calm we saw in President Biden, late Friday morning, I would hope that someone (like maybe Dr. Jill Biden) start demanding to know who was in the chain of custody between anything he ate and drank in the hours leading up to the debate.

I’ve said from the day he took office, my faith in the Secret Service as a whole had plummeted, and that I had concern for his well being. Something just isn’t adding up.

I’m not claiming something like that did happen. I am sure as hell saying, though, that I would want to be pursuing this avenue if I were close to President Biden.

Cold medicine? No. What White House Physician allows a man who is about to go on stage for a 90 minute debate to take anything with sedation/confusion as a potential side effect? No way.

Team Biden needs answers.

Was it a simple viral/ bacterial infection? I don’t know. I don’t know anyone who does know.

We just know that he looked VERY pale and was also showing signs of confusion. Both of which would be consistent with a drop in blood pressure. A drop in blood pressure could result from a bacterial/viral infection. It could also result from any number of medications.

Here’s a question: with the number of Trump holdover’s and Trump loyalists embedded within about every facet of Washington, D.C: Why would we NOT be asking these questions? Why should team Biden NOT be asking these questions? I hope someone is.

I’ve been concerned about the people around President Biden from day one. I’m even more concerned …for President Biden.

Lots of people replying agree with him.
