Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, according to a statement from his personal office Sunday, and it has spread to his bones.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said.

    luckily the cancer is still hormone receptor positive, meaning it response to anti-hormone therapy, which usually has more favorable outcomes(just like with breast cancer that is susceptible hormone therapy), if it was hormone negative, it implies a more aggressive type of cancer that is harder to treat. but metastasize already lowers your chances(in general prostate cancer is somewhat slow growing) but bidens mustve had a aggressive version that is still susceptible to antihormone therapy.

      Once it’s out that he is getting some kind of hormone-related therapy, the MAGAs will start calling him Trans, saying he was the first Trans president, and the Dems hid it from the world.

      They’ll insist on talking about it, forcing it to eat up media time and resources that should be investigating HitlerPig’s crimes.
