A former aide to Joe Biden is accusing the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee of sexually assaulting her during the early 1990s when he was a senator. Biden’s campaign denies the charges.

WASHINGTON —

The November contest between Biden and President Donald Trump will be the first presidential race of the #MeToo era, a movement that spurred numerous women to come forward with allegations of sexual assault, including against several prominent men in politics, entertainment and other industries. Trump has also been accused of assault and unwanted touching by numerous women, charges he denies.

Reade said that she pulled away and Biden looked “shocked and surprised,” and replied, “Come on, man, I heard you liked me.” “She did not come to me. I would have remembered her if she had, and I don’t remember her at all,” Kaufman said. The second friend met Reade more than a decade after the alleged incident and confirmed that Reade had a conversation with them in 2007 or 2008 about experiencing sexual harassment from Biden while working in his Senate office. But the friend, who requested anonymity to protect the privacy of their family, made no mention of assault.

Biden’s conduct towards women first came under scrutiny just before he announced his presidential campaign last spring. Eight women, including Reade, came forward with allegations that the former vice president made them feel uncomfortable with inappropriate physical displays of affection.

Why now?

Why doesn't JoeBiden deny it? WhereIsJoeBiden

So, he is just like Trump then.

oh, the classic 'ill dig some of your sh1t and throw it to you' tactic. meeeeennnnnnnn, it's been 27 years. she is either paid by the opposition or a damage kamikazee persona to bring down VP JoeBiden's campaign coz Trump has been failing from left to right + the coronavirus..

Senile joe....

Creditable being Senator staffer.

So what? Trump was accused too? Now a days Trump made it normal. Nobody cares anymore.

Does anyone really care? We have a sexual predator President, any charges there?

I feel as if they had lots of opportunity to press charges for this. seems politically motivated now.

Her story keeps changing, and some of her friends don’t believe her. But Putin doesn’t need it to be true, just like Burisma. Who do you think is behind this? Has money changed hands?

These are lies all of these years now joe Biden is accusing of sexual assault this woman is a And Trump is the real Rapist the was accused of raping a 13 year old girl

lol, the media & it's hypocrites will bury this story

Why tf isn’t Trump being slandered more on the media like this? He’s done worse...

Where's the dress?

Believe all women! You know his creepy ass done it

She has posted many warm tweets and messages about her old boss as she describes him, years after this supposedly happened. Her friends call her an attention seeker. Not much to the claim but it will be ridden like a pony if it can sway anyone. I have my doubts.

He doesn't care, he knows he will be absolved, everything will be swept under the carpet just like the Ukraine and the woman will be silenced

believe all women MeToo

Wow finally

TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP!

And your a conservative

Doesn't matter. Like all democrats say...we must believe her and let her tell her story to Congress. The truth must be told. MeToo

😂

Don't worry, nobody from nytimes SHO_TheCircus MSNBC washingtonpost CNN will bother investigating it.

The democrats

Is there not one single decent option?

This didn’t come up when he was running for or became VP?

A) she’ll be paid off and we’ll never hear about it. Or B) the liberal medial will never run it and we’ll never hear about it.

IBeliveHer

Really, what was the person doing till then? And you give air for these set of people. You see why king Trump calls you fake news

This woman also claimed she is the ex girlfriend of Putin, she changed her name twice, voted for sanders, but has nothing good to say about biden before going on a twitter storm and voted for biden on 2008 and 2012. Credibility is important here.

Investigate it

yep, pretty much everybody waits 30 years to make their accusations about matters like this right. And the timing is just some sort of strange coincidence right?

All victims should be believed. It must be hard to be a Liberal, you took the moral high ground on this. This is your candidate. Time to condemn

We knew this was coming.

QAnon_Report qanon

Why did she wait 20 years to mention it to anyone?

Well if its only one, vote the guy in. He was not applying himself as well as we have seen other degenerates recently.

This story has been out for 3 weeks but the media sat on it until bernie dropped out

Democratic Party's progressive wing leverages political power to push Joe Biden leftwardFormer Vice President Joe Biden now takes up the mantle for the Democratic Party after Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders ended a run fueled by left-wing enthusiasm and working class and progressives' deep hunger for a revolution. Amid the economic and political uncertainty of the coronavirus pandemic, I hope so. Bernie Bros have already threatened violence against Milwaukee....who knows what they’ll do if this political arm twisting fails.
