Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis take cracks at Biden over White House cocaine discovery

This was snort of predictable.

The top two Republican candidates for the 2024 GOP nomination drew battle lines against President Biden Wednesday after the discovery of cocaine inside the White House was confirmed.

“Does anybody really believe that the COCAINE found in the West Wing of the White House, very close to the Oval Office, is for the use of anyone other than Hunter & Joe Biden,” former President Donald Trump jabbed on Truth Social.

On Sunday, the Secret Service discovered cocaine in a “heavily traveled area” within the West Wing, press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed to reporters Wednesday.

The discovery prompted a brief evacuation of the executive mansion and took place while Biden, 80, was away at Camp David with his son Hunter and other members of the first family.

“But watch, the Fake News Media will soon start saying that the amount found was ‘very small,’ & it wasn’t really COCAINE, but rather common ground up Aspirin, & the story will vanish,” Trump continued his rant before turning to his own legal troubles.

“Has Deranged Jack Smith, the crazy, Trump hating Special Prosecutor, been seen in the area of the COCAINE? He looks like a crackhead to me!” he added.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis similarly mocked the incumbent president over the affair.

“I’ve long believed, I think a lot of us have believed, that the Biden administration has been blowing it on a lot of fronts. But I guess it’s a little bit more literal than even I had thought,” DeSantis told Outkick host Tomi Lahren.

“I can tell you in Florida, my wife and I, we have a six, five and a three-year-old running around the governor’s mansion,” the 44-year-old added. “So that’s not something that we see. We do have to occasionally get slime out of the carpet and get marker off the wallpaper.”

Former Vice President Mike Pence struck a more sober tone.

“They need to get to the bottom of it,” Pence said at a campaign event in iowa Wednesday. “It’s a very serious matter. Illicit drugs found. I heard it was in the library, whether it was in other places at the White House … the American people deserve answers.”

Thus far, White House and Secret Service officials have not disclosed how the illicit substance got inside the building.

“When it comes to visitors to the West Wing, they come for many reasons, and obviously we do have West Wing tours that occur here on campus,” Jean-Pierre told reporters. “They happen, and this particular past couple of days, they happened on Friday, they happened on Saturday, and on Sunday.”

Some, including Trump, alluded to first son Hunter Biden’s past struggles with cocaine addiction, which he detailed in his memoir “Beautiful Things” and is widely known due to reporting on information from his abandoned laptop.

The 53-year-old recently reached a deal to plead guilty to a pair of misdemeanor charges of willful failure to pay federal income taxes and enter a pretrial diversion agreement for a felony charge of illegal possession of a firearm while addicted to illicit drugs.
