Days after news broke of former President Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis, President Donald Trump broke his silence — but in a way few expected. A recent repost on Trump’s Truth Social account has sparked intense reaction and scrutiny online.
On May 26, 2025, Trump reshared a post from conservative commentator DC_Draino, originally posted on X on May 21. The message accused Biden and his administration of severe wrongdoing, reading: “They stole the 2020 election and hijacked the country using a decrepit corpse as a frontman. They used an autopen to start wars, steal from our treasury, and pardon their friends. Arrest those responsible and charge them with TREASON.”
Trump added no comment of his own, but the repost’s timing — following reports of Biden’s cancer diagnosis — ignited controversy across social media platforms.
DC_Draino later highlighted Trump’s action by resharing reactions from other conservative figures on X, including Karli Bonne and Catturd, both applauding Trump’s repost.

Public opinion was deeply divided. On Facebook, some defended Trump: “So, what! President Trump has been called everything under the sun.” Others were outraged: “OMG this was so uncalled for,” and “How is this unprofessional behavior continued to be tolerated?! Unreal!”
Instagram reactions were more concise but no less critical. One user commented, “Sad.” Another wrote, “Disrespectful,” while a third added, “Unclassy!”
On X, many defended Trump’s message. One user wrote, “Donald Trump doesn’t lie. When he says something, he does it.” Another echoed, “He’s spot on.” A third urged action: “Don’t just repost it. Get started investigating these folks and rounding them up!”
