Donald Trump misspoke in off-the-cuff remarks on May 19, saying he felt 'sad' to learn that Joe Biden has 'stage 9' prostate cancer. His comments came one day after Biden revealed he has stage 4 prostate cancer,

The statement followed President Donald Trump’s assertions on Monday, in which he claimed that Joe Biden had been aware of his cancer diagnosis for an extended period. Trump and others have suggested that concealing this information was part of a broader cover-up by Biden’s team regarding his health decline while in office.

Donald Trump Jr. accused the Dr. Jill Biden — who had a doctorate in education — of not detecting her husband's condition sooner.
