According to this, former Vice President Joe Biden is under strict doctor’s orders to STAY HOME. He was supposed to attend “Democrat Day” at the Illinois State Fair this week, but his doctors have ordered him to limit his travels.
I know what you’re thinking: Is this serious?
We have no idea. This could be nothing. It could be simple as a bad flu, and let’s face it. A bad flu sucks the life out of a YOUNG person. Joe Biden is 75.
I don’t agree with Biden on ANYTHING politically, but I hope this is nothing more than a seasonal illness and not something more serious.
“Everyone who knows Vice President Biden knows that he gives our party and our country his all, but unfortunately he is sick and is under doctor’s orders not to travel,” Doug House, president of the Illinois Democratic County Chair’s Association, said in a statement, according to CapitolFax.com.
“The cancellation is of course disappointing, but it is clear that the circumstances are simply unavoidable,” House said. “We all hope he gets well soon and I’m sure he’ll be back campaigning for Democrats in Illinois and across the country in no time.”
South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg will substitute as keynote speaker for an ill Joe Biden at the Illinois Democratic County Chair's brunch on Thursday at Democrat Day at the Illinois State Fair.

I’m sure this is just a temporary setback. You know how politicians are. There really isn’t anything that can convince them to retire. Ol’ Joe will be publicly wishing to take Trump behind the gym in no time.
BTW– I really want this to be true.
I choose to believe Biden is just laying low at the fair. Eating corndogs and riding the ferris wheel over and over again until an operator forces him off. https://t.co/KYiai1ERkt
