Donald Trump sent wishes for “a quick and successful recovery” to Joe Biden on Sunday after the office of the former president announced his diagnosis of prostate cancer.
“Melania and I are saddened to hear about the recent medical diagnosis of Joe Biden. We extend our warmest and the best wishes to Jill and the family, and we wish Joe a quick and successful recovery,” wrote Trump on Truth Social.
“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new discovery of a prostate nodule after having experienced growing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he received a diagnosis of prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (grade 5 of grade 5) with metastases with bone”, a declaration published by the office of Biden and shared by CNN on Sunday.
“Although this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, cancer seems to be sensitive to hormones that allows effective management.”
Biden and his family “examine the processing options with his doctors,” said the statement. The former president is at home in Wilmington, Delaware, also reported CNN.
Trump was a longtime biden antagonist, and often encouraged crowds during his campaign gatherings to vote for which they best described the president of the time: “Sleepy Joe” or “Croooked Joe”.
In September 2023, Trump challenged Rupert Murdoch and Biden to mental acuity tests.
“In a phony newspaper survey and probably faked, coming out of nowhere to soften the mental incompetence that is so obvious with Joe Biden, they ask questions about my age and my mentality,” he wrote on Truth Social.
He continued: “Where does it come from a few years ago, I was the only one to accept a mental acuity test, and I access it.”
He added: “I will name the place and the test, and it will be difficult. No one will even get closer to me. “
