Donald Trump Jr. ripped after ‘disgraceful’ comment on Biden’s cancer

Donald Trump sent warm wishes to Joe Biden following his sad cancer diagnosis.

But the president’s son has come under fire for what many consider an insensitive comment about Biden’s health.

The tone completely shifted

Donald Trump Jr., son of President Donald Trump, has sparked outrage on social media following President Joe Biden’s recent cancer diagnosis.

What began as a seemingly respectful message quickly took a sharp, mocking turn — igniting fierce criticism online.

Shortly after news broke that Biden, 82, is battling an ‘aggressive’ form of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, Trump Jr. initially shared a post wishing the president a “speedy recovery,” adding, “Politics aside, we wish him well.” For a brief moment, it seemed the former president’s son was putting politics aside.

But just a few hours later, that tone completely shifted.

Trump Jr. reposted a message targeting Jill Biden, the First Lady and an accomplished educator with a doctorate. In the post, he questioned how Dr. Jill Biden could have missed such a serious diagnosis — or if it was “yet another coverup.”

He also pushed a conspiracy theory suggesting President Biden may have been diagnosed while in office but withheld the information from the public.

This divisive message was then pinned to the top of Trump Jr.’s X (formerly Twitter) feed, signaling a deliberate choice to amplify the controversial claim.

Ripped for his comments

The internet wasted no time firing back at Donald Trump Jr. after his controversial post about President Biden’s cancer diagnosis — and the backlash was brutal.

“You’re a disgrace,” one user wrote on X, summing up what many seemed to feel.

Another didn’t hold back either: “Donald Trump Jr. just made fun of President Biden’s cancer diagnosis. This is where we’re at in American politics. Trump Jr. is a pathetic, reprehensible conman who wouldn’t know decency if it smacked him in the face. Shame on him.”

A third user added, “This is in really bad taste even for you,” slamming the timing and tone of Trump Jr.’s message.

And yet another person chimed in with a scathing fact-check: “Didn’t take long for the internet trolls to spread misinformation about cancer. There are plenty of oncologists and urologists who can give you accurate info about prostate cancer if you’d like, @DonaldJTrumpJr.”

Conspiracy theories

According to Healthline, aggressive cancers are those that can form, grow, or spread quickly — a reality that has many watching President Biden’s diagnosis closely.

The stark contrast between Trump Jr.’s approach and that of his father couldn’t be clearer. While Donald Trump Sr. extended “fast and successful recovery” wishes, other prominent MAGA figures like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene expressed sympathy and prayers for the president and his family.

“I’m sorry to see this news. Cancer is truly awful. My Dad passed away in 2021 with cancer,” the Georgia Republican shared, urging her followers to pray for Biden and his family during this difficult time.

But some MAGA figures weren’t focused on the medical facts. Instead, they zeroed in on the timing of the announcement and raised eyebrows with bold claims.

Former White House physician Ronny Jackson, who served under President Trump, called it “unbelievable” that Biden’s medical team didn’t catch the cancer sooner.

“Care at the White House should be second to none,” Jackson wrote on X.

“The truth is, his physician was more concerned about assisting with the political cover-up than providing world-class medical care.”

Meanwhile, far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer went even further, claiming without evidence that “Biden has been terminally ill for a long time.”
