Well the GOP is going to jump on this. Biden faces sexual assault claim.
[yahoo.com]
So Biden has one woman accusing him of sexual assault.......that's nothing....Trump has at least 19 women accusing him. Biden better pick up the pace if he wants to beat Trump.
This comment perfectly sums up Bidens entire appeal. Trump is really bad. Biden is bad too but less bad.
Trump sets an extremely low bar and Biden clears that bar, therefore, we should vote for him. Unfortunately, that's not good enough and Biden will suppress the vote.
We could have had a decent person as our nominee but the establishment selected Biden. Probably, we are looking at four more years of Trump.
I blame the Media....they give Trump too much coverage and they have been touting Biden. We have two bad choices. @RoboGraham
Absolutely. They pretty much ignored Bernie. They ignored all the negative stuff about Biden. And they covered Trump constantly because it was good for ratings.
Bernie was my first and only choice....it hurt me to see how the media sabotaged his candidacy @RoboGraham
Same here. No way I can vote for Biden.
Still better than trump, but don't believe it lot of lies being circulated by Russians and trump campaign. Know him and his wife they love each other very much .
Biden is a man who is willing to brazonly touch and sniff women and girls while cameras roll. I think it perfectly matches his character that he would be willing to sexually assault a woman in private.
When a woman comes forward, we must take her seriously rather than dismissing it as Russian propaganda.
I'm so sick of this Russiagate deflection. Anytime there are legitimate criticisms of corporate democrats, they scapegoat Russia. So many have been accused of being Russian agents, it's absurd neo-mccarthyism.
Seems no one can be or remain innocent in these time of Political Correctness!!!
It's a bit late to come forth with this, don't you think? After all the years he was the Vice President? It sounds fishy to me.
Apparently she has been trying to get the story taken seriously since 1993, but was fired and intimidated. She was only taken seriously when other women began talking about his groping and harassment.
@LenHazell53 I take ANY accusation of unwanted sexual advances very seriously. But my way of handling it (in almost all cases) is to get the two people in a room with me, and both parties get to tell their story completely and try to communicate openly and honestly. One big part of that is: What happens in that room is all confidential and never goes anywhere. That's how we get to total honesty. And I'm protected by client privacy protection laws.

"But my way of handling it (in almost all cases) is to get the two people in a room with me, and both parties get to tell their story completely and try to communicate openly and honestly."
With all due respect which in this case is very little, that is the most bloody stupid thing I have ever heard!
I too hold qualifications in counselling, gained after the final end of my horrific first marriage, in an attempt to help myself and other, especially men in a similar situation , and I am am horrified you would suggest such a course of action.
I spent years in an abusive relationship with a violent and predatory woman, my first wife. Getting the two of us in to a councilors office would have been impossible without dire consequences for me, even if we had I would have been coached beforehand on what to say with again the promise of consequences if I deviated from the script.
Confidentiality would have meant nothing, and all our family and friends would have been informed of how I had dragged her through an utterly traumatic event because I was a liar and a bastard.
In sexual matters you want a woman to sit with her uncharged abuser or rapist, who will be taking notes and making tacit threats? You are criminally naive I dread to think how much damage you have caused.

@LenHazell53 Thank you for writing all that. I hear you. But, I'm a counselor, not a cop. I work in situations where two people WANT to repair and/or improve a relationship. If abusive harm has been done and laws have been broken, that might be a case I would have to refuse.
