Trump to campaign for Darline Graham after she got pummeled for her debate performance

President Trump will campaign for South Carolina Sen. Darline Graham, the sister of late Sen. Lindsey Graham. CBS News' Zak Hudak reports.

Jill Biden, presently the First Lady of the United States, has suggested that her husband, former President Joe Biden, might have ingested a substance that affected his cognitive abilities during the June 2024 presidential debate against Donald Trump. This speculation emerged during a podcast conversation with Jamie Kern Lima, who inquired about the possibility of Joe Biden having a stroke during the debate.

Jill Biden assured that doctors had dismissed this notion, stating that her initial concern was solely whether her husband was alright.

Lima then probed Jill Biden about her gut feeling regarding Joe's condition. She acknowledged that while numerous theories existed, she remained uncertain. Joe Biden had been on a tour and Jill noted he appeared fatigued and unwell during their last encounter, but she could not pinpoint any specific cause. When asked if there was a chance someone might have administered a substance to her husband, she responded, "Who knows? Who knows?"

Joe Biden's office declined to comment on the matter immediately following the interview. The June 2024 debate was marked by Joe Biden's apparent struggle with stammering, lengthy pauses, and noticeable confusion, which led several of his key supporters to distance themselves and call for his resignation. However, as of the aforementioned date, he had not resigned from his presidential campaign.
