- 💡 The transition from not knowing about President Biden's prostate cancer to the description provided yesterday is too short, raising flags.
- 🔬 Prostate cancer is typically detectable and not a fast-moving disease, especially in older men, allowing for time.
- 🧐 It is difficult to imagine that a president with extensive medical resources would not have had prior signs before the cancer reached its current stage.
History of Deception and Lack of Benefit of the Doubt
- 🤥 The administration has a history of lying and attacking those who question Biden's health.
- 🏥 Details from a new book suggest Biden's aides discussed the possibility of him needing a wheelchair in a second term and were aware of his cognitive issues, like forgetting names.
- 🎭 These are not minor deceptions, making it plausible that the current cancer diagnosis is also being hidden or downplayed.
- 🗣️ Given the context of what is described as one of the worst political cover-ups, it is reasonable for the public to question if they are also being lied to about the cancer diagnosis.
Past Health Concerns and Public Statements
- 🚶♂️ A previous explanation for Biden's strange gait and limp was that he refused to wear a boot for a foot injury, but the truth reported is degenerative spine issues.
- ⚠️ The public held their breath watching him navigate the Air Force One steps, fearing he might fall due to his condition.
- 🗣️ Even prominent Democrats privately acknowledged concerns about his health, yet did not express them publicly.
Speculation on Political Motivations
- 👑 There is speculation that Biden knew about his cancer while running for re-election, with plans to pass the baton to Kamala Harris.
- 🎯 This scenario could have allowed them to prevent an "orange man bad" outcome, retain power, and install their preferred successor, while claiming credit for the first female president.
- 🤷♂️ The alternative—that his cancer was simply not caught during four years of presidency and annual checkups—seems less likely than a deliberate cover-up.
Biden's Own Past Statement About Cancer
- 🔊 In July 2022, Biden stated, "That's why I and so damn many other people I grew up with have cancer," a comment that was largely dismissed as a gaffe at the time.
- 🤔 It is difficult to discern whether his statements are due to confusion, exaggeration, poor syntax, or deliberate deception.
- 🔍 The stark admission in retrospect, coupled with the current diagnosis, raises further questions about what was known and when.
