Lucy Flores, a former Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor in Nevada, accused former vice president Joe Biden of kissing the back of her head during a rally in 2014.

Former vice president Joe Biden said that he never believed he acted inappropriately, in response to an alleged close encounter in 2014 with a then-nominee for lieutenant governor in Nevada

"And not once – never – did I believe I acted inappropriately," he said."If it is suggested I did so, I will listen respectfully. But it was never my intention." "He leaned further in and inhaled my hair," Flores wrote."I was mortified. ... He proceeded to plant a big slow kiss on the back of my head. My brain couldn't process what was happening. I was embarrassed. I was shocked. I was confused."She also addressed the incident on CNN's"State of the Union" on Sunday morning.

Good thing he didn't grab 'her' by the dick. LarryFlores

Democrats, the Trump cultists are trying to play this as some sort of SJW issue, and I hope we're not dumb enough to fall for it. We need solidarity, not useless, hyper sensitive identity politics. Do you really want 4 more years of Trump?

A kiss on the back of the head is not sexual assault, and if the Trump cultists use this to engineer a Democratic circular firing squad, then it's another 4 years of the real monster. Narcissistic identity politics have nearly purified our party out of existence.

It could have been just as harmless as most have done something out of excitement & joy for that person never taking it any father. This whole thing is get out of joint. Half of the women out there are not worth a second look to ignore them they wonder ask what's wrong with me.

She waits five years before saying anything. Ridiculous.

This twit fell off the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

THIS IS NOT OKAY.

Lucy give your head a shake. Did he grab your private parts? Did he force you to have sex? Did you say ‘stop ‘? No I bet not.

I believe him. These stupid stories come up all the time. A lot of the times are lies.

He did nothing wrong..

The guy has a big problem

Neither did Al Franken. In fact what Franken did pales in comparison. The 'picture' was comedy. Joe, you put your hands on my daughter that way, we will have words

Can someone make a video of all the “Creepy Joe” moments caught on video or in photos?

Is that a valid excuse now?

Crazy old man! For sure! forsure

And a sad result of the election of President Trump is that stuff like this doesn’t matter in politics anymore. Look at all the things he did with and to women, said to women,etc. It didn’t matter and he was elected anyway. Sad

Just getting SICK & TIRED of the media ABUSING WOMEN to promote SEX and SEXUAL BEHAVIOR. When will this CRAP END

And that is exactly the problem isn't it? He doesn't even realize he was being creepy.

A collage of Biden touching kissing women girls invading their personal space puts it all into perspective. He misses the wife daughter killed in auto accident mayb 50yrs ago. It's a transfer of affection, right? Someone close to him couldn't pull him aside tell him to stop.

'Never did I believe I acted inappropriately.' Yes. And that's the problem.

So, he's not denying it, but calling her a liar and saying she was okay with it? 🤔

Which time is he referring to? Just asking... I'm sure Bill Clinton says the same thing.

If Biden can’t hear and address her specific recounting of the incident and how she felt at the time and how she feels it goes beyond sexual harassment, and matters as much, then he still has a long way to go.

Isn't that the issue, he thinks its ok to intentionally touch people without their consent?

What I don’t understand is why creepy joe hasn’t been punched out at one time or another by a furious husband or boyfriend.

a kiss on the back of the head 5 years ago and she's now decided that it bothered her? Please sit down and shut up

Isn't the moment on tape?

🙁 umm Neither did Trump.

It is getting to a point where men may have to have witnesses with them every time they are around women. Is there a witness to this story? If no, then this will continue. I wonder who is next where there were no witnesses. I am not saying the lady is wrong. Why now and not then?

That’s what they all say Joe

Never did we believe robbing a bank was wrong. Bonnie and Clyde

That’s the liberal way... Just ask this fellow

Most liberal predators never admit guilt

pedo

You dont have to believe in this. We have eyes!

Ok
