President Donald Trump expressed surprise that the public had not been informed earlier about Joe Biden’s prostate cancer diagnosis. Biden revealed on May 18 that he has prostate cancer which has metastasized to his bones, and he is currently reviewing treatment options with his family. The announcement has sparked renewed concerns about Biden’s health and transparency during his presidency. Vice President JD Vance criticized Biden for withholding critical health information from the public. At 82, Biden’s age and medical condition are drawing intense scrutiny, especially in light of a new book that details concerns among Democratic insiders and aides about his mental acuity during his 2024 re-election campaign. Biden’s office stated the diagnosis was made just days earlier, on Friday. Medical experts informed that such cancers are usually detected before reaching an advanced stage, raising additional questions about the timeliness of both the diagnosis and the public disclosure.
