MODERATORS
To be clear on the timeline:
He ran a campaign insisting he was healthy and fit for office.
The day after the election he announced he "just found out" he had cancer.
When running for the chair of this committee just months later, he acted like there was no logical reason someone could believe cancer at 75 would effect his ability to fight fascism.
And Pelosi and the (prior) DNC supported him thru all three of those steps.
Like, he clearly lied about when he knew, and he was awarded by the (again, not current) party for it.
