Biden's cancer and America's ailment

Published 1 month ago4 minute read

SIR: Four months into the inauguration of President Donald J Trump into office as the 47th President of the United States, former president Joe Biden is reported to be suffering from an “aggressive form” of prostate cancer. This Gleason grade 9 cancer has metastasised into the blood and bone marrow. In clear terms, a cancer of such dimension and magnitude seems a light on the home stretch for the victim.

In a nation where the last election into the oval office was a bitter war with extraordinary bitterness, the current scoop seem to provide a fertile ground for conspiracy theories and  insights into the  undercurrents of that election process. 
For reminders, the bitter issues and experiences of that campaign centred around the bitter personality clash between the then incumbent President Joe Biden and his challenger, former President Donald J. Trump.

There was also the definitive war of no ideology between the democrats and republican parties leading to an intercine battle of no sense, for the control of the oval office, instead of the welfare and future of Americans.

  Furthermore were the several pandora boxes on the personality and personal lives of the two old foes. While Trump suffered a perception and stigmatisation as a devil incarnate, an eccentric megalomaniac, con man, right wing supremacist criminal and a destructive capitalist whose mentality is described as a twin brother to insanity, Biden fought very hard to rebuff the stigma as a sick, senile, clueless and absent minded old man fascinated only with splendour and comforts of power than the preservation and renaissance of America.

With his several gaffes, mis-steps, amnesia and apparent hands on the clutch instead of on steering wheel of the U.S. government, he was forced to resign his candidacy for a non tested, smooth talking backline babe and vice President, Kamala Harris.

It must also be remembered that Trump, nearly got killed by an assassin bullet in a bitter turn of campaign which undertone, to the Biden gang, if the plot had succeeded, would have been “good riddance to America’s Mephistopheles”.

For starters, the stark information about Trump’s “sleepy Joe” Biden’s current status raises a few conspiracy proposals. For instance, is Biden and handlers, in true conscience, just knowing about his degenerated personality problems when the whole world knew of the private debates among Biden’s aides on whether, as recorded by the celebrated journalists Jake Tapper of CNN and Alex Thompson of Axios in their new book “The original Sin”, they would have to put the old man in a wheelchair for his second term, moreso that he didn’t recognise movie star George Clooney at a June 2024 fundraiser?

Also of interest is when was the degenerative health status of Biden flagged for the American Government? Was his health status well known before the elections but kept from the public for strategic “patriotic” reasons? Was the strategy of the Democrat’s spin doctors, to help democrats keep to power by selling a  sick cat to the nation with the hope of a post inauguration resignation and handover to the “tush babe” Kamala Harris? 

Was the American establishments, including the media, deliberately sloppy and sleepy about investigating the gaffes of Biden but instead concentrated on “protecting” America from Trump’s “overconfidence and criminal tendencies”. Was Trump’s persistent attack on Biden’s cognitive, affective and kinetic competence indicative of what he suspected or knew about his opponent’s health but which America was too hateful of him to listen to?

Is Trump’s current policy aggression and deliberate neglect of his customary tirades against Biden a strategic move to let them pull the test strip off the beaker themselves? 

Could the kept secret in the pandora box provide enough motivation for the attempted but ill fated murder of the controversially popular  Trump during the campaigns? It is a spin of so much ugly possibilities and putrid stench of the underbelly of America behind closed doors.

Meanwhile, the sad question before Americans currently is how is America faring today in spite of itself?  The answer seems debatable, if posed among deluded consciences, who will easily take their eyes off the frenetic weakening of the U.S institutions and establishments and the gladiators as well.
