Trump: ‘Don't Feel So Sorry' For Biden Because Of Stage 4 Cancer

President Donald Trump on Friday said not to 'feel so sorry' for former President Joe Biden, who announced a cancer diagnosis earlier this month, and criticized Biden as 'vicious'—just over a week after Trump and other Republicans suggested Biden may have hidden his illness from the public. Biden, who was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer, said his "prognosis is good." Trump, who spoke in the Oval Office on Friday, called Biden a 'somewhat vicious person,' adding, 'If you feel sorry for him, don't feel sorry for him, because he's vicious.' Trump did not clarify why he referred to Biden as vicious, though he did cite 'what [Biden] did with his political opponent and all of the people that he hurt' while arguing Biden had 'hurt a lot of people.' Biden, 82, revealed he had stage 4 prostate cancer earlier this month and told reporters Friday his prognosis is 'good,' and 'the expectation is we're going to be able to beat this.' '[Biden's] been a sort of moderate person over his lifetime,' Trump said. 'Not a smart person, but a somewhat vicious person, I will say. If you feel sorry for him, don't feel so sorry, because he's vicious. What he did with his political opponent and all of the people that he hurt—he hurt a lot of people, Biden, so I really don't feel sorry for him.' This is a developing story.
