Despite the fact being cleared up, Twitter users continued to use the viral hashtag to state their opinions on Biden’s cancer:

I believe #BidenHasCancer (terminal).

Remember when the media was telling us Putin was visiting a doctor for his cancer? They were actually projecting, covering up for Joe Biden. This way any mention of the word "cancer" would show up as Putin on social media & search engines. pic.twitter.com/HWXpTre5qK

We aren't treating it like a joke. We are calling him out for misleading & exaggerating to score political points. Melanoma is not caused by environmental pollution.

Steven Crowder an American conservative political commentator also tweeted on the US President Biden’s Cancer blunder stating:

“Lefties are outraged and disgusted because #Bidenhascancer is trending. Yet, they scream about wanting the right to murder babies.  Sorry, Lefties, you don’t have the moral high ground.”

To which another user responded with an image of a Twitter user allegedly showing no concern for when a conservative politician had cancer.
