“I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has. I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones, but I’ve had it longer than he’s had it – well, longer than he’s admitted having it,” Adams said.

He's acting like a child about a life threatening illness. This smacks of a pity based "whataboutism" to take away from someone going through a genuinely bad time.

He has been really shitty since he spent several years unable to speak at all

IDK that's such an awful and terrifying thing to have willed yourself back from. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Now do I wish heate nothing but expired Dilberitos every day of his life? Yes, yes I do want that for him.

"Adams himself noted, "[t]he mineral fortification was hard to disguise, and because of the veggie and legume content, three bites of the Dilberito made you fart so hard your intestines formed a tail."[5] "
