MAGA Quickly Turns Biden’s Cancer Into Another Conspiracy
www.thedailybeast.com
Hours after Biden’s cancer diagnosis was announced, conservatives raised their eyebrows at what they claimed was another cover-up.

Donald Trump Jr. and MAGAworld pounced on the news of Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis with wild speculation about a long term “cover-up” of the former president’s disease.

Hours after Biden’s office announced Sunday that he had been diagnosed with a “more aggressive form” of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, Trump Jr. boosted a conspiracy that was already circulating among MAGA influencers and pundits.

“What I want to know is how did Dr. Jill Biden miss stage five metastatic cancer or is this yet another coverup???” he wrote on X.

    We can look at how he ran Minnesota’s state party, turned a purple state blue and made it one of the most progressive states in the country.

    All by himself? Did he fix the Minnesota party by protecting conservative Democrats there too? This reads like all the delusion about Musk establishment Democrats had in ages gone by. “Look at all the great things he’s doing for the planet!”

    while he isn’t overtly progressive, what he cares about is winning elections.

    That’s a contradiction. It’s also the definition of who “they” is.

    after 50+ years of Lex Luther running the party, we really don’t need anything more from the party.

    Alternative definition of “they”. “You got your marginal surface level improvements, now sit down and shut up or we’ll blame you (again) when we lose.”

    Fuck them, you’ll never see me defend them.

    You are them, just nextgen.

      All by himself?

      Yes…

      Chairs are dictators accountable to no one.

      So the Buck always stops with the Chair.

      here too?

      Didn’t then, isn’t now.

      reads like all the delusion about Musk establishment Democrats had in ages gone by. “Look at all the great things he’s doing for the planet!”

      What?

      This is saying it safe to assume he’ll run this political party like he ran the last one.

      If you’re looking for something with the direct skill transfer, a state party chair to DNC chair is about as close as you can get.

      That’s a contradiction.

      This word, I do not think it means what you think it means…

      You got your marginal surface level improvements

      No, it’s foundational improvements…

      After literally 50 years of rightwing bias from the party. We finally have a chair willing to run fair primaries…

      If you don’t understand how huge of a win this is, then you need to read up on party history.

      You didn’t just sleep in past the battle, you woke up ready to fight after the war is over. We won, the goal was never to be as bad as neoliberals when they were in charge, it was to even the playing field.

        Thanks for telling me that you aren’t a serious person. I see no reason to continue.

          You didn’t know that about our political system either?

          Wait, I shouldn’t assume “our”, it would explain a lot if you weren’t American

            I didn’t know that leaders do everything by themselves and nobody else gets any credit for those achievements. Sounds pretty authoritarian to me. Hmm, maybe you’re the Trumpist. All hail the god king!
