I stomached looking at his truth social account so you don't have to:
I guess some pr person has his phone today. He'll probably say something stupid in an interview later.
I checked the Conservative subreddit to see what their reaction was and it’s pretty sympathetic. This made me laugh though
As if this isn’t the most basic norm of the presidency?
Has any other president trashed an ex presidents diagnosis (or something similar)?
This almost made me puke:
Cancer doesn't care about ideology, but it sure seems like one ideology in the US cares about giving you cancer and denying treatment for it.
If cancer could vote, it would vote Republican.
Yes. That’s a big reason why a democrat posting in r/conservative calling them classy and wonderful almost made me puke.
You are an angel! Yes it’s written by an educated and classy person. Not him.
Yeah. Turns out he posted on twitter last night, less than three hours from the OP's countdown:
I should note that there is no such thing as stage five cancer, only 1-4. And Jill Biden's doctorate is in education.
I thought that was his son? Or did he retweet it?
Those were his words while retweeting something else.
Kinder response than half of Lemmy, even if he didn't write it.
Yeah the comments ITT are pretty awful. I'm no fan of Biden, but some of the comments here are depraved.
Aiding and abetting a genocide is depraved.
Going on national TV and lying about seeing "pictures of 40 beheaded babies" is depraved.
Celebrating when a war criminal gets prostate cancer? Not depraved at all in my opinion. He deserves much worse.
Agreed.
Agreed.
Agreed.
Hard disagree.
You can acknowledge that he's an awful person while refraining from celebrating his misfortune.
If someone deserves punishment, celebrating that punishment is basically just hatred. I might want to get that looked at.
Yes, I hate the man who spent my tax dollars to bomb children living in tent cities.
I hate the man who failed so spectacularly as a candidate that he gave us president Trump.
I hate Genocide Joe.
It takes some self awareness to acknowledge that.
You might want to get it looked at.
You have no moral clarity.
On the contrary. I can acknowledge that someone's behavior is immoral without hating them and without rejoicing at their misfortune.
Finally, the woke moralist?
Fuck that shit. He didn't give a shit about the children being shot and slaughtered by isreals military, or our own while he was VP. Why should I pretend to give a single shit about him? For some "moral high ground"? The bar is in hell.
Yeah, there is absolutely no way he wrote that!
lol yup no way t wrote that himself.
