Jill Biden wondered if husband Joe had been ‘drugged’ during presidential debate disaster

Jill Biden has another theory on what happened to her husband, Joe Biden, the night of his infamous debate with Donald Trump — he was drugged.

The former first lady told CBS News in an interview airing Sunday she was worried he had a stroke. But in her forthcoming memoir, “View from the East Wing,” she offered this: “Has he been drugged?”

Biden, per an excerpt of her book published in The Atlantic Thursday, claims she wished she had thought of asking for a blood test after the debate.

She also claims that she suggested he take a cognitive test but was overruled by his team. That, however, contradicts testimony from Joe Biden’s chief of staff Jeffrey Zients, who told Congress he wanted the president to take a cognitive test after the debate.

“To this day, I still don’t know what happened,” she writes. “I only wish I had the answer.”
