'Show me what?' Maria Bartiromo taken aback by Republican claiming proof of Biden drug use

Fox Business Network host Maria Bartiromo was thrown for a loop by a Republican claiming he could show her proof that president Joe Biden used some type of stimulant to boost his performance during the State of the Union address.

Donald Trump claimed the president was "jacked up" on cocaine during the widely praised speech, and Rep. Greg Murphy (R-NC) echoed that statement and told Bartiromo that Biden would likely need drugs again to compete against his Republican rival in the upcoming debates.

"I'll be very plain and simple," said Murphy, a urologist and chair of the House Doctors Caucus. "I was in the State of the Union and Joe Biden must've been jacked up on something, and I absolutely believe that from a medical viewpoint, and I actually have a little bit of good knowledge that it happened. He can't stand and he can't stand under the lights for that long, and I don't think you can keep a concept in his brain for that long."

"It will be important that President Trump stays presidential," Murphy added. "He did that during the last debate but not the first debate, but he stays on track and shows the American people how much worse they are from four years ago and what this President Biden has done to destroy this country. He has to stay in his lane, President Trump has to stay in his lane and act presidential. Sometimes he can get off on a wheel, we all know that and love that about him, but sometimes it hurts his issues. But Biden will falter and falter if he doesn't have it right in front of him telling them what to do."

Bartiromo followed up on his claims about Biden using drugs and asked him to explain what he meant, and the host was caught off guard by his reply.

"I believe they gave him something to help them sustain the lights and sustain the vigor that he had," Murphy said, as Bartiromo raised her eyebrows. "That was not Joe Biden. I was in there, he screamed for two hours. He screamed for two hours, and maybe we can talk off-line and I'll show you something that proves that."

Bartiromo did a double take, saying, "You'll show me what?"

Murphy again claimed to have evidence to show Biden had used some type of perfomance-enhancing drugs, and Bartiromo asked whether he was talking about medication.

"There is no way Joe, Joe is 82, there was a picture of him taken on the beach without his makeup on," Murphy said, "and guess what? He looks like an 82-year-old. You can see his surgical scar on the back of his neck where he had his facelift. You can see that plainly, he's been manufactured and puppeteered by the Democratic Party to be president of the United States, and I fully believe that has to do sometimes with pharmacology."

"I would like to follow up and see more of that," Bartiromo said. "That's really compelling."
