Yesterday Biden was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer that has spread to the bone and is thus considered incurable. I have a couple sentiments about his news:
First, I of course feel sorry for Biden and his loved ones. From navigating the hornet's nest that has been the Israel-Hamas war (which you may have noticed I don't enjoy discussing myself) to becoming the first president in American history to abandon his re-election bid after securing his party's nomination to seeing his replacement go down to defeat and most of his achievements as president rapidly undone by his successor to witnessing the deterioration of his son Hunter's condition in the face of public scrutiny and legal convictions to now being diagnosed with cancer himself, this last year has certainly been among the toughest the former president has ever endured and I don't envy him.
Secondly though...yeah, maybe he was up to remaining president for another four years, right?
The man is in his 80s! What did you think was going to happen?! He had no business running for re-election and this news should end that debate forever.
