Tara Reade Biden allegation megathread

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Looks like this woman was actually a huge Biden fan prior to 2017 and frequently wrote glowing praise of his work combatting sexual assault.  In 2017 she was very concerned about Russian interference in our elections and Trump's ties to Russia.

Some time afterwards she did a complete 180 and fell in love with Putin and started ranting about American imperialism.  It was about two years later that she wrote blog posts swearing her allegiance to Russia and started telling everyone that Biden had sexually harassed her.  Now, a year later, she's upgrading her story to Biden raping her.

This is all just a smear attempt by the evil corporate establishment Dems who want to silence women and let Trump win another four years rather than allow a true progressive to take over the party!

Well first of all, BF had been seeing a counselor for years to cope with the Kavanaugh assault and there are records to prove it. She also took a polygraph test and, although not admissible in a court setting, did indicate she was telling the truth. This woman sacrificed the security and privacy of her and her family's lives to tell her story. There is just no way she was lying.

Reade, on the other hand, accused Biden of something completely different a year ago and even brushed it off as "not sexual". She even has an old Twitter account where she constantly fawned over Biden and praised him for his work fighting against sexual assault. That alone tears a massive hole in her credibility.

Well....four more years folks.

Based on a debunked accusation? Ok.

Let me remind you over 20 women have accused Trump of sexual assault.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

We don't need a mega thread for such a flimsy and ridiculous accusation.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

the bottom line is that everyone credible ignored the allegation ultimately, assumably because they looked into it and realized it was likely false. so that should be the end of this.

It's only logical for the media to be cautious after the sh**t these conservatives jokers tried to pull with Chuck Schumer and Robert Mueller.

Don't forget about the time they tried to accuse Elizabeth Warren of abusing a veteran in a BDSM session.

And the fake Roy Moore allegation.

What?

NYT is pouring cold water on the allegations.

I wouldn’t call that pouring cold water.

I think they’re pretty much saying they found nothing in the accusation.

Biden has been in politics for decades. He’s ran for president three times and was Vice President. Both the Democrats and Republicans must’ve spent hundreds of hours vetting and screening him. Shouldn’t there be more sexual assault claims of this nature? Also, the fact that she waited until now to tell her “story” is extremely fishy.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

MacArthur has done a much better job of investigating this allegation than the entire MSM.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Didn’t Ryan Grim falsely smear Gil Cisneros as an aggressive alcoholic and refused to take down the story or apologize when it was quickly debunked?

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

A toddler saying they didn’t steal any cookies while standing over a bunch of crumbs on the floor is more believable than Tara Reade.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Hmmmm....I think something might change now. Even if it isn't rape it does seem like the allegation isn't entirely unsubstantiated. Still question marks of how much it'll hurt but Biden's chances of dropping out just increased.

Lol no it hasn’t.

And even if Biden did drop out, there is no way Bernie would win the nomination. Biden’s delegates would probably choose someone like Cuomo or Harris.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Reade should've exposed all this in the primaries -- the people who say "I don't like that Biden raped this woman, but he has better policies than the guy who raped the other women" would vote for Biden then and they do now. Meaningless scandal

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Let’s see:

1. Unknown caller
2. Unnamed senator
3. No mention of rape or sexual assault

Totally and unquestionably corroborates a rape allegation against Joseph R. Biden.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Read this and tell me if you still think Biden is innocent: https://t.co/4ho2om2VUo

Now let's get back to the 20-some witnesses named by Reade who have said it never happened.

A toddler is better at lying than she is.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Do you guys actually read the articles or do you just skim the headlines? She really doesn't add anything to the story other than say Reade is telling the truth. Meanwhile, there's an entire section of the article where staffers of Biden at the time say they don't even remember her.

That’s evidence. She says Reade told her about the skirt fingering

It really isn't. She could've easily phoned up her bff and asked her to corroborate her flailing story.

It should be HEAR all women, not believe all women. It was inevitable that MeToo would be weaponized for political purposes.

I don’t think Michelle read the article.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

If that story was first reported in 2008, wouldn't the Obama campaign's vetting team have picked it up and taken it into consideration before choosing Biden? Just smells like more bullsh**t to me.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

I didn't think Reade's allegations were real at first, but that Larry King interview is something else (assuming the caller was in fact her mother). There seems to be more evidence that something went down between them than there ever was for Kavanaugh and Ford.

You have to be trolling.

There's no way to prove the caller was Reade's mother, therefore there is no way to prove the caller was talking Biden, and there was no mention of rape or sexual assault. If you were an anonymous caller, wouldn't you be at least a little comfortable with naming a politician?

It proved absolutely nothing.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

The impact of Reade's questionable allegation on Biden's chances are being way overblown. 55K people are dead and unemployment is going to be 16% by the time of the election. Plus, Trump has his own sexual assault allegations. The only people who really care about this is left and MAGA Twitter and half of Fox News.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Please tell me this won't tank our chances for 2020...

People are dying and the economy is tanking... I find it hard to believe that a questionable sex assault claim will decide the 2020 election.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

This article does a good job with explaining why Reade is not credible.

Here are some of the points she makes that are shaping my perspective.

1. Changed story multiple times.
2. Biden's staffers at the time of the alleged incident are firm in their denial that Reade ever made a complaint.
3. The nonexistent formal complaint.
4. Lied about losing her job.
5. Past tweets praising Biden's work fighting sexual assault.
6. Her emphatic support for Sanders.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Biden needs to address this problem. Now. He's being called a rapist by sports media radio hosts too. He can't let this slide.

OH NO THE HORROR!

Lol
