President Donald Trump released a heartfelt statement on Sunday after Joe Biden revealed he had been diagnosed with an 'aggressive form' of prostate cancer.

The president said he and first lady Melania Trump were 'saddened to hear' about former President Joe Biden's diagnosis.

Despite their bitter rivalry, the president put aside their differences to extend some warm words for his political foe.

'We wish Joe a fast and successful recovery,' Trump wrote on Truth Social Sunday.

The health announcement came just one week after reports revealed that a 'small nodule' was found on Biden's prostate that needed 'further evaluation.'
