U.S. Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) is predicting that former President Joe Biden only has about six more months to go before he becomes "totally incapacitated." 

The Daily Caller reports that Marshall made this prediction during a recent appearance on the "Vince" podcast with Vince Coglianese.

The obvious question here is: why should we listen to what Marshall has to say? After all, he is a Republican member of Congress, and thus he is probably not the biggest fan of Biden.

The reason, however, that we should consider what Marshall has to say is that he is a medical doctor. He, for decades, was an obstetrician and gynecologist.

Background

One of the biggest news items in recent weeks was the revelation that Biden has been diagnosed with an "aggressive" form of prostate cancer, one that has already spread to his bones.

This came as a surprise to many, but not for the reason that you might think. Instead, what surprised people - including doctors - is the fact that Biden has been diagnosed with a type of cancer that ordinary testing would have easily caught years ago, especially considering that, as president, he was receiving premium medical checkups.

This has led to the question of whether Biden's prostate cancer has been known about for many years and whether Democrats covered this up as well. It has also led to the claim that the only reason Biden's cancer diagnosis was announced was to distract the public from the recent release of the Hur tapes.

All of this speculation has forced Biden, through a spokesperson, to release a public statement on the matter. "President Biden’s last known PSA was in 2014. Prior to Friday, President Biden had never been diagnosed with prostate cancer," the spokesperson claimed.

Suffice it to say that this is hard for many to believe, considering just how routine PSA testing tends to be.

6 Months

Marshall recently used his medical background to weigh in on the situation.

He was asked:

We would be in a full-blown constitutional crisis if the president of the United States were an invalid, incapable of doing the job, and other people were doing it for him. That’s completely unconstitutional, senator. Shouldn’t there be a way to address this?

Marshall replied, "So there absolutely is. And there needs to be some type of hearings and investigations on it."

This is when Marshall dropped a bomb. He said:

One last point I want to make here, Vince, is that the next chapter in this book is that Joe Biden is going to be totally mentally incapacitated in six months. And they are going to say, ‘oh, this is metastatic prostate cancer as cognitive decline, and really it’s the last chapter of Alzheimer’s.’

"So we’ll come back in six months and see where we are," he concluded.
