Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsThe only reply about Biden is the following:
He served 8 years under Barack Obama-the first black man ever for president.
He knew he would be scrutinized constantly so he most assuredly vetted Biden with very special care
This "alleged" assault happened in 93 Biden was VP from 08-16
NOTHING came out until last year??/
she can go jump off a bridge. This is plain lying and story telling

This type of stuff is why they're "Repukes" to me. I want nothing to do with any of them.

(54,003 posts)At least two of her friends at the time, including one who had lost contact with her, report at the time she did say that she had been harassed and then had to leave a senator's staff. Interestingly, one of the women corroborating her talking about this 27 years ago still says she's going to vote for Joe Biden.
I don't think the more disturbing accusations were specified, but something clearly did happen back in 1993. The Larry King call-in show incident Reade says came from her mother is too peculiar to be just a coincidence. Reade herself is not a credible witness. But there's circumstantial evidence to at least warrant further inquiry.
This accusation is definitely costing Joe support among young women. I have at least three female friends who say they don't want to "choose between two rapists"

(2,042 posts)I get what you are saying though. My question is why was she tweeting effusive praise of Biden just 18 months ago and now has gone full Trump-Putin now that Biden is the only thing standing between Donnie and a second term? That points to ratfucking. It makes her look like an operative.

(4,395 posts)The questions is whether the facts are true or not, not "if it's true why did she wait so long?" There's any number of reasons why a victim of assault may choose not to go public with it until many years later.
Ditto "why was she praising Biden 18 months ago and accusing him now?" Why did some of Michael Jackson's victims testify in his favor in his earlier trials? They were still brainwashed or they didn't want their careers ruined. It doesn't mean that the assault didn't happen.
I'm sure she probably is an operative, but there are better ways to prove it.

(561 posts)Is that even possible? I not only do I not believe it, but I can't imagine Obama keeping Joe on if was true. The knives are out Mr. "60,000 Dead in 2 months" Trump is desperate.

EVEN IF TRUE, FUCK IT! I'm voting for Biden with all of my might!

Biden could shoot a person on 5th Avenue and still have my vote. I never imagined I would have been in such a position.

(509 posts)She's had ample opportunity to bring this forth and hasn't. This is nothing but an effort by left wing activists and/or Russia to bring down Biden.
