President Donald Trump, 78, took to his Truth Social platform to issue a surprising statement following the news that former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer.

Biden's health, both physical and mental, was discussed at length during the 2024 presidential election cycle, more recently after excerpts from a new book by CNN 's Jake Tapper and Axios' Alex Thompson, Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again, were published by multiple media outlets.

Following Joe Biden's diagnosis of prostate cancer, political figures like Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton and more are sharing their well wishes.

The former president’s cancer diagnosis prompted an outpouring of well wishes and sympathy, as well as some whispered uncertainties that reflected a lack of trust in what he says about his health.
