Trump jokes that Biden may resort to using cocaine on debate night
Suspicions swirled around Hunter Biden earlier this year after a bag containing cocaine was discovered in a White House hallway.
However, former President Donald Trump recently suggested that the White House drug stash may have belonged to Hunter's father.
Trump says Biden will be "so pumped up" on debate night
According to the Daily Mail, Trump made that claim while addressing supporters at a rally in Racine, Wisconsin on Tuesday.
The former president predicted that his campaign rival is "gonna be so pumped up" on stimulants ahead of their televised debate which is scheduled for June 27.
"You know all that stuff that was missing about a month ago from the White House? What happened?" he remarked in reference to the White House narcotics discovery.
"Somebody didn't pick up hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of cocaine," Trump continued before adding, "I wonder who that could've been. I don't know. Actually, I think it was Joe."
Biden's performance during State of the Union raised eyebrows
This is not the first time that President Biden has been accused of relying on performance enhancing substances, as Fox News host and radio personality Sean Hannity made a similar suggestion following this year's State of the Union address.

Hannity told viewers that the president's animated delivery was "frightening" and "so hyped up it was bizarre" while being "so at odds with Everyday Joe."
"He spent most of the night shouting, speeding through his speech, and clearly overcompensating from the normal, everyday Joe that can barely string two sentences together," the host declared.
"At times it became uncomfortable watching him screaming and yelling and speeding through that speech," Hannity complained before adding, "I might call him 'Jacked-Up Joe.'"
Trump says Biden should undergo drug test before debate
Hannity later characterized Biden as sounding "like a hyper-caffeinated, angry, old man" and accused "Jacked-Up Joe" of "screaming lie after lie."
Meanwhile, Fox News reported in May that Trump said during a speech to National Rifle Association members Biden should be forced to take a drug test before the debate.
"Now, he did that State of the Union the other day. He was high as a kite. So, I think we should go for drug tests on the debate. Yeah, we're going to call for drug tests," Trump asserted.
