Joe Biden took to Twitter and uploaded a photo of himself using a ‘performance enhancing’ drink.
I don’t know what they’ve got in these performance enhancers, but I’m feeling pretty jacked up. Try it yourselves, folks.

Kamala Harris acknowledged that Joe Biden had a “slow start” in the presidential debate against Donald Trump on June 27, while also accusing Trump of repeatedly lying.
Speaking after the debate in an interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, Harris conceded, “It was a slow start for Joe Biden, but I thought it was a strong finish.”
“We saw Joe Biden aiming for a debate grounded in facts and truths, whereas Donald Trump continued with his expected tactics of spreading falsehoods and diverting attention from the real damage he has inflicted and continues to inflict on our country,” Harris asserted.
Biden’s performance has been widely criticized as disastrous, marked by moments of stumbling, freezing, misspeaking, and blank stares. Concerns have been expressed even within his own party. However, reports indicate that Biden has no intention of withdrawing from the race. In fact, he has committed to participating in a second debate against Trump.
Responding to criticisms of Biden’s performance, Harris remarked, “People can debate style points,” emphasizing that Trump’s repeated lies during the debate were a more pressing issue.
Addressing the focus on Biden’s performance, Harris expressed some frustration, telling CNN’s Anderson Cooper, “I understand that this is the post-debate conversation happening now, and I get why everyone wants to discuss it.”
“But it’s crucial to remember that the choice in November between the two individuals on that debate stage carries immense stakes. Joe Biden has the endorsement of his vice president, whereas Mike Pence is notably absent from endorsing Donald Trump,” Harris concluded.
