Biden's Advanced Prostate Cancer Sparks Timing Debate

Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with advanced, metastatic prostate cancer, prompting controversy and speculation over the timing and handling of the announcement. Critics suggest the disclosure may have been timed to distract from negative press regarding Biden's cognitive health and the imminent release of a book detailing his decline. Notable commentators, including CNN's Brian Stelter and Senator Rick Scott, have questioned how such an advanced cancer could go undetected given the regular, high-quality medical care presidents receive. Medical experts noted that missing metastatic prostate cancer with routine screening is highly unusual, raising concerns about recent health oversight. Despite these allegations, Biden's office and some public figures have extended well wishes for his recovery. The debate continues as political and media circles scrutinize both the medical and political implications of the diagnosis.
