Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer, according to a statement from his personal office Sunday, and it has spread to his bones.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement said.

    I’m not sure lack of a primary was a problem. The last time we had a primary, there were several worthy candidates, including Harris, Warren, Mayor Pete, Klobuchar, and others. Yet, we still ended up with EVERYBODY’S last choice.

    Bruh, Harris, Pete, and Klob all consistently polled under Biden as first choices before they dropped out.

      And yet they were all worthy candidates, and far superior to Biden. That’s a problem with the system, not the candidates, which is exactly my point.
