Former Republican President Donald Trump took a shot at Democratic President Joe Biden in a Truth Social post that even conservative media is calling "backhanded" and a "wild rant."

On Sunday after a poorly attended golf event, Trump took to his struggling Twitter knock-off and posted:

"Joe Biden's second bout of Covid, sometimes referred to as the China Virus, was sadly misdiagnosed by his doctors. He instead has Dementia, but is happily recovering well."
"Joe is thinking of moving, part time, to one of those beautiful Wisconsin Nursing Homes, where almost 100% of the residents miraculously, and for the first time in history, had the strength and energy to vote—even if those votes were cast illegally."
"Get well soon, Joe!"

While the post was probably intended to be clever, it was instead described as petty, pathetic, racist and detached from reality.

The conservative Washington Examiner called Trump’s post "rehashing his grievances with the 2020 election and reiterating his debunked accusations of widespread fraud."

In contrast, when it was announced in October 2020 that then President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump had COVID, 2020 presidential election rival Joe Biden tweeted:

"Jill and I send our thoughts to President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump for a swift recovery."
"We will continue to pray for the health and safety of the president and his family."

The contrast is being cited as class versus trash, with Trump coming out on the losing end.

President Biden had tested negative after his initial diagnosis, but tested positive again on Saturday.

The White House announced the President is not experiencing any symptoms thus far.

Lorne Michaels Just Explained The Thinking Behind His Big 'Saturday Night Live' Cast Shakeup

Saturday Night Live turned 50 last year and a lot of former cast members and major celebrities joined in the season long celebration, but it's a new year and it's time to get back to business.

Which, with SNL, usually means some cast changes—out with the old (and sometimes not so old) and in with the new. Show creator and producer Lorne Michaels recently announced SNL would return on October 4 with a literal handful—five—cast changes.

Kari Lake Slammed After Warning Parents Not To Send Their Kids To College After Charlie Kirk Murder

Speaking during a memorial service for far-right activist Charlie Kirk at the Kennedy Center, failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake—now the Trump administration's Senior Advisor for the U.S. Agency for Global Media—called U.S. colleges “indoctrination camps” and urged parents not to send their children.

Lake ignored the fact that Kirk was killed while speaking at a college, in this case Utah Valley University (UVU), the largest university by enrollment in Utah.

Vance made the claim after Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah—a Black woman—said she was dismissed from the paper following social media posts on gun control and race after Kirk’s assassination.

Speaking to reporters on Sunday, Trump was asked about the order he gave earlier this month to destroy a boat he suspected of transporting drugs off the coast of Venezuela, rather than simply intercepting it. All 11 people on board the boat were killed.
