    Has cancer… has lower cognitive faculties… might be dead soon…

    IDK, still sounds a lot better than the orange despot in charge right now!

      This is the kind of mindset that resulted in running Biden long enough that we didn’t have a real primary, and Trump winning.

          Bruh you are the least qualified person on the planet to be commenting on what reality is.

          Your “reality” cost the country its Democracy.

          Supporting Joe Biden when there was -> 0 <- fucking chance he could win, and it was obvious to anyone with two braincells to rub together; if that was you, Trump is your fucking fault.

            Americans are truly fucked if “lesser evil” isn’t good enough. Biden was a lot less evil. Children are the only ones naive enough to think a candidate needs to be near perfect in order to compete with fucking authoritarian.

            A goddamn ham sandwich should have been good enough.

              Just gonna have to keep repeating it. If this is how you proceed through the world; if this is the mentality you approach elections in the US with: you will continue to lose.

    I highly doubt Biden knew he had this specific cancer back then just because it seems incredibly unlikely he would find that out and just not get any treatment for it until he was out of office. It just doesn’t feel likely. You don’t just get told “hey you have cancer” and then not do anything about it at all. Especially when you’re rich and have the money. And when you’re the fucking President and have the best medical care available to you in the entire country all for free.

    Course if we find out he was on chemotherapy back then then I’m obviously wrong. But I think that’s the only thing that could directly point to him knowing he had cancer back then.

    Biden is known for his gaffes so it’s just more likely that’s what was going on in this 2022 speech.

      How dare someone admit he have cancer and then get a different kind of cancer 3 years later?

    It’s never the ones you really want that get cancer. Here’s hoping Trump gets eyeball, asshole and dick cancer simultaneously
