Donald Trump Jr. ripped after ‘disgraceful’ comment on Biden’s cancer
Donald Trump Jr. Under Fire for Comments on Biden’s Cancer Diagnosis
After former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, Donald Trump Sr. offered kind words, wishing Biden a “fast and successful recovery.”
However, Donald Trump Jr. sparked backlash on social media. While he initially wished Biden well, his tone soon changed. He questioned how Jill Biden, an educator with a doctorate, could miss such a serious illness — even suggesting a possible cover-up. He pinned the controversial post on his X (formerly Twitter) profile, drawing criticism from many who called the comment “insensitive” and “disgraceful.”
While some Republicans, including Marjorie Taylor Greene, responded with sympathy, others like former White House doctor Ronny Jackson echoed conspiracy theories about delayed diagnosis. Far-right figure Laura Loomer claimed, without evidence, that Biden had been ill for a long time.
The incident highlights a stark contrast between Trump Sr.’s respectful message and Trump Jr.’s inflammatory remarks — raising questions about decency and the politicization of health news.
