Washington Post: “There is no evidence that Biden has used or plans to use performance-enhancing drugs. But Trump and his supporters have spread the baseless claim widely, as some Republicans worry openly that the bar for Biden’s performance Thursday has been set too low. Trump senior adviser Danielle Alvarez said in a statement Tuesday that Biden ‘will be highly prepared and alert on debate night’ because of a ‘perfectly calibrated dosage’ and said the focus should be on Biden’s policy record.” “Democrats suggest Trump is trying to preempt a disconnect between the energetic Biden who will show up onstage and the ‘brain-dead zombie’ that Trump’s campaign has portrayed at every turn.”
