Crazy, my dad was just diagnosed with the same cancer a few days ago. Not as aggressive, but on the higher end of the Gleason score. Hoping biden continues to live a long and healthy life

I always love the cognitive dissonance people have seeing others hope that a man directly responsible for a metric ton of civilian deaths, succumbing to a painful death, is not ethically correct.
I mean people seem to have zero issue with United Healthcare. Exorbitant Healthcare costs is the equivalent of death, but literally bombing hospitals and refugee camps isn't?
Not to mention that he'll be receiving the latest and greatest in medical aid anyway, so there's a fair chance he'll survive. A lot of geriatric asshat world leaders contracted covid and still lived.
I can't even tell if this is DNC shilling because several people have implied they would treat Trump the same. Wth kind of moral compass are yall following lol?

This is sad. Taking into account of how he was treated by the DNC and how 2024 went down, this is just the shit cherry on the shit sundae.
The DNC made him their king in 2020 in order to prevent a Bernie presidency. In return, biden refused to step down until it was too late in 2024, fucking up the whole primary process. To this day, biden thinks "I'm the guy who can defeat trump" when he was carried and dressed up entirely by the DNC, big media, and trump's shitty handling of covid. He's an absolute asshole whose entire political career has only made the country worse overall. A sprinkling of good things like a tiny bit of student loan forgiveness (loans that exist because of the work he put in decades ago forcing student loans to persist through bankruptcy) does not absolve this asshole of the massive amounts of damage he's done.

As usual, old fuckers don't have to live with the consequences of their (in)actions.
Well at least that definitely puts a stop to any misguided second term ambitions.

When a genocidal war criminal gets a horrific terminal cancer, it is certainly cause for celebration.

This is why after 60, I’m not going to try to be president. I’m retiring. Guy spent the last few good years he had stressed out running the country when he should’ve been playing bingo and sitting on a beach.

God had mercy on this genocidal war criminal by giving him a portion of his punishment on earth
