US President Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, defended his post about former First Lady Jill Biden failing to notice her husband Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis despite being a ‘doctor’ herself, saying that he was being sarcastic.
Joe Biden was diagnosed with an ‘aggressive’ form of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, according to an official statement, after he experienced urinary symptoms, and a prostate nodule was found. The diagnosis caught everyone by surprise, with world leaders extending support to the 82-year-old former US President.
A political slugfest ensued between Republicans and Democrats, as experts raised concerns if Americans were kept in the dark about Biden likely suffering from cancer during his tenure as President. Donald Trump Jr took a shot at Jill Biden, saying how she could miss his cancer diagnosis.
“What I want to know is how did Dr. Jill Biden miss stage five metastatic cancer or is this yet another coverup???" US’ First Son wrote on Truth Social, a platform his father owns.
Amid backlash over his comments, a journalist highlighted the difference between a PhD and MD. In response, Don Jr said, “I sometimes forget that part of the mental disorder of leftism is an inability to understand sarcasm. So for the confused libs out there, I’m well aware that Jill Biden is a fake doctor, not a real one…Unlike the Dems who were calling for her to be Surgeon General in 2020."

He also shared a link of American TV personality Whoopi Goldberg calling for Jill Biden to be appointed as US Surgeon General after Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential elections, despite the former First Lady having a doctorate in education. “She would never do it but, yeah, she’s a hell of a doctor," Golberg said on ‘The View’.
Jill Biden received her doctorate in education at the University of Delaware in 2007.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump President Donald Trump wished Biden a fast and successful recovery. “Melania and I are saddened to hear about Joe Biden’s recent medical diagnosis. We extend our warmest and best wishes to Jill and the family, and we wish Joe a fast and successful recovery," said Trump on Truth Social.
Concerns regarding Biden’s age and health have been ongoing throughout his presidency and became more pronounced after his halting debate performance against Donald Trump in June.
