Bandaged-up Biden says son Beau ‘should’ve been the president, not me’ in speech ripping Trump
NY Post ^ | 11/08/25 | Victor Nava

Posted on 11/08/2025 1:48:55 AM PST by Libloather

Former President Joe Biden, wearing a seemingly fresh bandage on his head, told Nebraska Democrats Friday that his late son should have been elected commander-in-chief in 2020, not himself, in a speech ripping President Trump.

The ex-president invoked the 2015 death of his eldest son, Beau Biden, from brain cancer to attack Trump, who he accused of “cutting government funding for cancer research” after his administration made it a “priority.”

“Folks, I know what cancer research means,” Biden said in a speech at the Nebraska Democratic Party’s Ben Nelson Gala. “Cancer hits every family. It’s hit my family hard.”

“When the love of my life, my oldest son, the attorney general of the state of Delaware – who should’ve been the president, not me – volunteered to go to Iraq for a year, didn’t have to, he came back with stage four glioblastoma because he lived in a burn pit just like those guys did on 9/11, and he died,” the 46th president said quietly.

Biden, who was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer earlier this year, then referenced his own battle with the disease.

“But when you get that research, research, they’re, they’re doing, when they diagnose it – in my case, I just had prostate cancer – so, and, I, uh, when you finish that round of treatment, you get to ring that bell at the end of each treatment,” he said. “Well, thank God for the doctors and nurses and incredible breakthroughs we’re making in cancer research.”

“Now, Trump and his Republican friends are cutting government funding for health care, making it more expensive.”

Biden, who turns 83 on Nov. 20, appeared at the event wearing a seemingly new bandage on the top-left portion of his head.

Turns out that terminal cancer diagnosis was a lie just like everything surrounding this old senile jackass.

Didn’t the Biden Crime Fam run a cancer charity scam?

Regarding why his family puts him out there, they are scumbags and he is the worst among them. They are all trying to get more money.

Somehow Beau as a president of anything just doesn’t compute in any way, shape or form. What we had was bad enough. Why make it worse than it needed to be?

He’s an old man so the bandage may just be from thin skin or a minor skin cancer removal. Let’s talk about the continuing elder abuse by Joe’ “loving” family, pushing him out in the public. Oh, and buy the way, I thought Joey Boy cured cancer. Always bringing up poor Beau, lots and lots of soldiers came down with cancer, especially after serving in Vietnam and our other Asian conflicts, but I seem to recall that St. Beau was a lawyer working in headquarters and not all that exposed to the burn pits or any other hi risk duty.

"he accused Trump of “cutting government funding for cancer research” after his administration made it a “priority.”

That's the wailing of a typical idiot democrat. Success is simply spending taxpayer money. The more spent, the more success that can be claimed.

My dad joined the Army in 1939 and retired in 1963. He died in 1991 from a brain tumor. His death was 100% service related per the VA, but he didn’t live in a burn pit, so only he and Army knew what he was exposed too

Yes, that is very apparent and illustrates what a horrible human Joe is. I don’t know why his family let’s him still speak publicly, unless they want the world to know how horrible Joe is.

Excellent post.

Well, Biden will go down in history as the worst President and Carter moves one up from the bottom so he will never be there again by any standard.

And you would not have been nominated VP had Beau not yanked Larry Sinclair off the stage at National Press Club as favor to Obama

This brain-addled, irresponsible, criminal, fraud loser should be in prison for the rest of his often-caustic, uncivil worthless life.

As I recall Biden started some charity or org to “ cure cancer” using his dead son as bait. All the donations were grifted to personal use and hiring donors and favored friends and their nepo relatives. Not a dime to actual cancer research.
Maybe someone could check this.

Sadly it seems a number of VPs or Senators lost kids or developed brain cancer…Mondale, Kennedy Biden. I’ve wondered if there were enviro factors at the VP residence or other govt facilities

It was more like a nightmare.

++++++++++

A nightmare would have been great as one eventually wakes up to the relief that the it was not real. OttoPen and his death cult were very real and are paying incredibly bad negative dividends daily. Consider the families whose daughters were slain by the scum that came into this country under OttoPens open border policy. Unfortunately, there will be more death to come as nothing has been learned after witnessing the results of past Tuesday’s elections.

Joe Biden blames Beaus death on burn pit so he can say his son died serving in Afghanistan or he understands the sacrifice military families have made because he lost his son.

My niece died of Glioblastoma at 50, she was a teacher. My cousins husband, 36, farming and landscaping. Good friend, 54, builder/ developer. My longest friend, a hairdresser has recently been diagnosed, 74. An acquaintance, 39 CrossFit trainer.

Glioblastoma is the most common and lethal brain cancer.

This old grifter ran a cancer nonprofit after Beau died... raked in tons of money but not one cent went to research or helping a cancer patient. It all went to his henchmen who served in his cabinet.

You are correct. It was another Biden crime family scam.
