President Donald Trump's bitter rivalry against his predecessor continues - despite former President Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis - as the republican shared a theory that the Democrat could be a clone.
The 46th president announced last month that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive type of prostate cancer, and after Trump had initially taken to Truth Social to share how he and Melania were 'saddened' by the news, he's since rather distastefully urged others not to feel sorry for him.
Eighty-two-year-old Biden was the man to beat Trump at the polls back in November 2020, taking the Oval Office from him democratically - something that his 78-year-old counterpart has never accepted.
Instead of taking defeat on the chin, Trump has claimed the the Biden administration rigged the election and has never conceded to the fact that he lost fair and square.

Now, the POTUS has taken yet another swipe at Biden as he reposted a wild conspiracy theory that alleges Joe Biden was 'executed' back in 2020 and was subsequently replaced by a clone.
The post, which was shared by a MAGA supporter, read: "There is no #JoeBiden - executed in 2020. #Biden clones doubles & robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see.
"Democrats don't know the difference."

While he didn't comment on it himself, people were left in shock.
After it was posted on Twitter, one user commented: "No f***ing way... is this post real?"
While a second added: "Just like all MAGAts, you're all into conspiracy theories. Do you think the earth is flat as well? Just wondering."

But some people identified the post as Trump trolling cancer patient Biden. One wrote: "Trump is a legendary troll."
Yes, as mentioned previously, Trump took to Truth Social on May 19, a day after Biden's bombshell announcement, posting: "Melania and I are saddened to hear about Joe Biden’s recent medical diagnosis. We extend our warmest and best wishes to Jill and the family, and we wish Joe a fast and successful recovery."
And while speaking with the press on May 30 during his Oval Office press conference regarding Elon Musk's position in the White House, Trump was asked about Biden's diagnosis, leading the POTUS to call him 'somewhat vicious'.

"[Biden's] been a sort of moderate person over his lifetime," he said. "Not a smart person, but a somewhat vicious person, I will say."
He added: "If you feel sorry for him, don't feel so sorry, because he's vicious. What he did with his political opponent and all of the people that he hurt - he hurt a lot of people, Biden, so I really don't feel sorry for him."
