On a recent episode of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, the comedian and political commentator Bill Maher addressed the absurd conspiracy theories surrounding President Joe Biden’s debate preparations. Maher mocked the unfounded accusations from Donald Trump and his allies that Biden’s strong performances could only be explained by drug use, including baseless claims of cocaine use.
During the panel segment, Maher played a compilation of clips hyping up the idea of a “jacked-up Biden,” then delivered a satirical takedown:
BILL MAHER: Republicans believe he will be very virile because he’s on drugs. I got to say this about the Republicans. When they get a new talking point, I don’t know if they meet in a secret underground lair, but when the memo goes out, they all get on the same page.
And the new page is that Biden, yes, we all say he’s feeble most of the time, but when he’s not, when he’s actually not being feeble, it’s because he’s on drugs. We put together a little run of people talking about this on conservative media.

So that’s it, he’s Joe Biden, he’s jacked up. He’s coked out. He’s completely out of control.
I think they’re on to something here. And would you like to see some of the proof that they have?
The White House gift shop now sells a tiny spoon with the presidential seal.
He expanded Obamacare to cover nosebleeds.
He wants to move the debate to Miami.
Now he’s asking Hunter to introduce him to his friends.
Lately when he sniffs women’s hair, he’s been using a straw.
He named a post office after Marion Barry.
And his secret service codename is Andy Dick, I mean, come on.
He’s been referring to the DEA as that bunch of fucking narcs.
Lately, he stays up to the crack of dusk.
And he keeps babbling about how he wants to spend more time working on his music.
