Vice President JD Vance sparks backlash over ‘disgusting’ comments about Joe Biden’s c.ncer diagnosis
Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, his team confirmed in a statement. The disease, which has metastasized to his bones, is hormone-sensitive, allowing for manageable treatment. Biden and his family are currently evaluating medical options. President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump extended their sympathies, wishing Biden a swift recovery.
However, Vice President JD Vance faced backlash for his response, suggesting Biden’s health may have impacted his ability to lead. While Vance expressed hope for Biden’s recovery, he questioned whether the public was fully informed about his condition. Critics called his remarks “disgusting” and politically opportunistic, arguing that a cancer diagnosis shouldn’t be used for partisan attacks. Social media users condemned Vance for his insensitivity during a difficult time for Biden and his family.
