TOPIC: Joe Biden allegations

Joe Biden allegations 5 Years ago  
About 10 years ago in a car park somewhere, someone parked their car an inch over the white line adjoining my parking space. When I say an inch, it was probably a centimetre, but it felt like an inch back then, more like a foot today. Should I consider myself a car crash survivor?

Three more women come forward with allegations against Biden after pledge to change behavior

"Karasek said she met Biden after appearing onstage at the Oscars with a group of 51 sexual assault survivors and Lady Gaga in 2016. She said that after she told Biden about a friend who had died by suicide, Biden took her hands and put his forehead against hers, a moment that was captured in a widely publicized photo.

Karasek told the Post that she appreciated Biden's support but said the encounter made her uncomfortable because of the close proximity of their faces. She told the paper that she did not know how to respond to the gesture at the time."


With photos: Three MORE women accuse Joe Biden of touching them inappropriately: Number of allegations against the former Vice President rises to SEVEN just hours after he promised to be more mindful of personal space

"None of the women who have come forward have accused Biden of sexual harassment. Rather, they've described behavior that made them feel uncomfortable because it invaded their personal space, regardless of his intentions."


Still, some kind of sexual transgression is what this fuss implies, isn't it, especially in the age of #metoo? It's rather low of them to be reinterpreting an empathetic gesture as something offensive, or that the press should be doing that for them.

Re:Joe Biden allegations 5 Years ago  
I'm not surprised by Joe Biden doing that as he strikes me as a genuine empathetic person and his entire life has really been one of helping people. He's very much loved by his constituents.

But it doesn't take much to destroy these days and Joe Biden is serious candidate who could derail Trump in 2020.

It's another example of how the media either purposely or unwittingly fans the flames of a Witch Hunt.
