Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis is bound to run its course, no matter where it ends up.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If the former president is able to beat back the aggressive form of prostate cancer — which I and others hope happens — we’re going to see the temporary end to what is likely to occur if the president’s cancer fight ends in another fashion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What will occur will be the birth of yet one more never-ending conspiracy theory. This one will center on allegations that the White House covered up President Biden’s cancer, that staffers knew he suffered from “aggressive prostate cancer,” but wanted him re-elected in 2024, so that he could resign and hand the presidency over to Vice President Kamala Harris.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I don’t feel good about the former president’s prognosis. He is 82 years of age. He has had cancer before, many years ago. But no one ever talks about that.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I am not privy, nor is anyone outside the White House, to what people knew during Biden’s term as president and when they knew it. A couple of questions keep nagging at me regarding the conspiracy theorists.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

One is, why even worry about such a thing now? Joe Biden is no longer president. He has exited the political arena after serving what many millions of us consider to be a successful presidency. I am not going to spend a moment of my time thinking about what the White House medical staff knew and whether they covered it up.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The other is that we’ll never know the answer, except that if the White House medical team says it hid nothing, that is going to be good enough for me.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Conspiracy theories are the stuff of individuals who have too much time on their hands and too little to fill their vacuous noggins.<\/p>\r\n\n
