âI do remember her telling me that Joe Biden had put her up against a wall and had put his hands up her skirt and had put his fingers inside her,â LaCasse said. Reade, as detailed in a previous NPR report, has accused Biden of pinning her against a wall in the hallway of a Capitol Hill building and penetrating her vagina with his fingers in the spring of 1993.
The Biden campaign denies the alleged incident, as do longtime Biden staffers whom Reade worked for at the time.
The Biden campaign did not specifically respond to the latest developments, but pointed NPR to its previous statement, which said that the alleged incident âabsolutely did not happen.â Biden has not addressed the accusation himself.â
Correct. That is why I was saying Biden was smart about it.
Knowing when to strategically keep silent is not a high point with Trump.
One was likely to ask his lawyer how to handle the situation.
One was likely to do the first thing that comes into his head because, after all, genius.
All #45 hinted was a mention of possibly attending the closing arguments in person⌠and remember this coming Wednesday night, the 10th, President Trump goes to New Hampshire for the town hall hosted by CNNâŚ
He basically confirmed that he meant every word of the âAccess Hollywoodâ tape about his prerogative to assault women.
The sad thing is that this is unlikely to sway the opinion of a single Trump supporter who, if he loses, will respond that it was biased New York jury, biased judge and so on. If he wins, it will be a glorious vindication. Heads I win; tails you lose. Trumpâs supporters and opponents are so locked into their positions that nothing changes.
The risk in the trial rests solely with E. Jean Carroll. If she wins, her claim in vindicated at the cost of exposing a great deal of her personal life. If she loses, then she will widely seen as a liar and another generation of women will see a grim reminder of why it is frequently wise to not report a rape, lest the rapistâs attorneys put the victim on trial.
You have to look at the big picture.
To many drive-bys/attacks and too few solid proofs and facts.
Pretty soon it turns you the other way.
I now donât believe anything âŚeven when it looks close to being true.
