    President Donald Trump released a heartfelt statement on Sunday after Joe Biden revealed he had been diagnosed with an ‘aggressive form’ of prostate cancer.

    Trump said he and first lady Melania Trump were ‘saddened to hear’ about former President Joe Biden‘s diagnosis. 

    Despite their bitter rivalry, the president put aside their differences to extend some warm words for his political foe. 

    ‘We wish Joe a fast and successful recovery,’ Trump wrote on Truth Social Sunday.  

    The president’s eldest son was the first of the family to wish former Biden well following his stunning cancer diagnosis. 

    Donald Trump Jr. posted to his Instagram story news of the grave prognosis and wrote: ‘Politics aside, we wish him a speedy recovery.’  

    The personal office for the former president announced on Sunday that Biden, 82, has an ‘aggressive form’ of prostate cancer. 

    The cancer metastasized and spread to his bones.

    President Donald Trump put aside his differences to extend his warmest wishes to former President Joe Biden after news broke of his cancer diagnosis on Sunday, May 18, 2025

    ‘Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,’ the statement notes. 

    ‘On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,’ it adds. 

    ‘While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.’   

    The announcement came just one week after reports revealed that a ‘small nodule’ was found on Biden’s prostate that needed ‘further evaluation.’ 

    Prostate cancer with a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) is the most severe grade a patient can receive. 

    Biden left office as the oldest serving president in U.S. history – he was also elected as the oldest ever person to hold the highest office. 

    The Trump family were often highly critical of Biden’s cognitive decline. 

    President Trump, 78, often referred to Biden as ‘sleepy Joe’ as he slammed his light schedule as he claimed the White House was being run by his ‘handlers.’ 

    Questions over the former president’s age, health and fitness for office ultimately led him to ditch his reelection campaign and let then-Vice President Kamala Harris, 60, take over.

    Leaders within the Democratic Party have now started to publicly admit that Biden should not have run for reelection in 2024. Some claim that they were duped by advisers who were shielding Biden from the public and telling members of the party he was fit behind the scenes.

    During his presidency, Biden made ending cancer a priority.

    He reignited his Cancer Moonshot initiative in 2022 – after being put in charge of the effort at first when he was serving as Barack Obama’s vice president. 

    The initiative sought to cut the cancer death rate in half by 2047 and improve the lives of those living with cancer.  

    Solving the problem of cancer hit close to home for Biden. 

    His son Beau Biden died at the age of 46 in 2015 after he was diagnosed two years earlier with glioblastoma multiforme, the most aggressive type of brain cancer. 

    His father claimed the cancer was a consequence of his Beau’s exposure to military burn pits when he was serving in Iraq.

    The former president has also battled cancer before.

    In February 2023, Biden had a cancerous lesion removed from his chest and before entering office had several non-melanoma skin cancer spots removed with Mohs surgery.

    While still president in February 2024, Biden’s doctor declared him ‘fit to serve’ following a routine physical at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. 

    Prostate cancer with a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) is the most severe grade a patient can receive. And the fact it has metastasized in the former president’s bones adds to the grave diagnosis. 

    The statement from Biden’s office claims that the form of cancer he has appears to be hormone sensitive and might be effectively managed by various treatments. 

    Doctors and medical professionals note that effective treatment for hormone-sensitive prostate cancer is blocking testosterone production since this hormone can help the cancer to grow and thrive. 

    ‘The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians,’ it states.

    Biden’s diagnosis comes just shortly after he began once again speaking to the media. 

    He appeared on The View alongside his wife and former first lady Jill Biden for a joint interview on May 8. 

    The former president also joined BBC for a wide-ranging pre-taped interview to mark the anniversary of Victory Day. 

    But CNN’s Jake Tapper and Axios’ Alex Thompson have an upcoming book focusing solely on the downfall of Biden and the massive cover-up of his cognitive decline during his single term as president. 

    ‘Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again’ will hit shelves later this week and details the extent of the cover-up.

    The forthcoming book details how Biden’s deterioration towards the end of his single term was so severe that some aides started to weight whether he needed to use a wheelchair. 

    The authors claim advisers were privately discussing in 2023 and 2024 the possibility that Biden might need to use a wheelchair if he won reelection – and they were weighing how to hide it until after Election Day in November 2024.

    Internet critics and even some medical professionals weighed-in on Biden’s gait towards the end of his presidency, mentioning his shuffle and his inclination to stumble and even fall completely to the ground. 

    During a commencement address at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado on June 1, 2023, Biden tripped and fell down while on stage. A few members of his Secret Service detail rushed to help him back to his feet. The conversations about wheelchair use reflect Biden’s extreme health decline and spine issues, and the extent to which his White House team was willing to go to conceal it during a tough reelection.
