Lots of unanswered questions…
While speaking with reporters Monday afternoon, President Trump commented on former President Joe Biden’s Stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis and asked why Americans weren’t made aware of it sooner.
Medical screenings — cancer screenings — are common for U.S. presidents.
Biden has a Gleason score of 9, Grade Group 5. A Gleason score is a metric for grading prostate cancer. Higher scores, such as a nine or 10, suggest a much more aggressive, faster-spreading form of cancer.
“I think it’s very sad, actually. I’m surprised that the public wasn’t notified a long time ago because to get to stage 9, that’s a long time,” Trump told reporters on Monday afternoon.
“I just had my physical. You saw that, you saw the results of that particular test. I think that test is standard to pretty much anybody getting a physical, good physical,” said Trump.
“If it’s the same doctor who said there was nothing wrong there, that’s being proven to be a sad situation,” Trump told reporters. “In other words, there are things going on that the public wasn’t informed. And I think somebody is going to have to speak to his doctor, if it’s the same or even if it’s two separate doctors. Why wasn’t the cognitive ability — why wasn’t that discussed? I think the doctors said he’s just fine, and it’s turned out that’s not so. It’s very dangerous. Look, this is no longer politically correct. This is dangerous for our country.”
“The other thing is, you have to say, why did it take so long when you — this takes a long time. It can take years to get to this level of danger. So it’s a — look, it’s a very, very sad situation, and I feel very badly about it, and I think people should try and find out what happened,” Trump said.
