Tara Reade Biden allegation megathread

[Fudotei]

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

That's quite an accusation.

What's your evidence that Biden rape women?

[Anti Democrat Democrat Club]

I had to unfollow Peter Dao on twitter as he’s super annoying. Did he get blackballed by the Democratic Party?

He's just a shameless grifter. He jumped from being a Clinton hack to a Sanders hack when it looked like Sanders was in ascendancy and now he's realizing what a huge mistake he's made.

Not really. He's always been a part of the anti-war netroots movement, and has been consistently on the party's left (especially wrt foreign policy). His support for Hillary was more out of personal loyalty and connections than his actual political beliefs, and jumping to Bernie was a correction towards said beliefs.

Quite frankly, the man seems like less of a grifting hanger-on and more like an idiot (see: Verrit, which could have been successful had it not been marketed as Pravda for Clintonites).

Why won’t she just sue Biden so this can go to discovery and he can be deposed? She’s full of sh*t.

...because she have reasons to believe that a thorough investigation would NOT go in her favor

The Reade allegations have been the top story on foxnews.com for the past three days. The allegations are nowhere to be found on nytimes.com,  washingtonpost.com, or cnn.com. Of course, it's the top story on theintercept.com. I doubt most Americans are aware of the Larry King tape at this point. If there's a more sustained push by Reade and her allies for media attention, it could become an even bigger story and I'll be interested in seeing how that affects Biden's standing.

There are like 5 Fox News stories in my google feed about this. 3 of them are individual articles about Tweets made by Bernie surrogates. It reeks of desperation on Fox's part. Now, I'm not saying this story shouldn't be covered. But it's not some shocking smoking gun that requires all  that much real estate on news websites. This allegation has been covered by all major media outlets already, and barring some actual smoking gun or more accusers, I don't think there's much more to say about it.

Edit: I feel icky writing this so clinically. Women should be believed and their claims investigated. But Reade's claims have been investigated, she's past the Statue of Limitations and I don't think there's enough evidence to ask Biden to step aside. It just is what it is.

Fox News is trying its best to distract its viewers from Trump's current implosion.

Other mainstream sources are doing minimal or no reporting because they find the subject -- a Putin-loving, perpetual liar who stole from a non-profit -- to be a non-credible source.

Reade's story is unlikely to get much traction unless some credible evidences actually show up.

[redjohn]

Liberals don't like sexual assault victims unless they accuse conservatives and are boosted by intellectual reputable sources.

Half of establishment Democrats will believe literally any allegation of any kind against Trump/Pence (remember the months-long obsession with Pence reportedly being "uncomfortable" in a room with only one woman?), but want video footage and fifteen sources to even consider an allegation against Biden. They're just as brainwashed.

There are eight stories in the front page of foxnews.com right now covering the allegation.

Fox is desperate trying to take attention away from Trump's current implosion.

How honestly dense and stupid can you be to think this story has any credibility whatsoever? Obviously that numerical value cannot be adequately demonstrated with current known mathmatics.

Trump boasted on video about how he can sexually assault women without consequence.

It's not even about believing "sexual assault victims unless they accuse conservatives": it's about believe my own eyes and ears.

well obviously if Biden groped her in the lobby of a Senate building, then he'd be able to do so unnoticed. /s

Trump is imploding and the right-wing is getting desperate.

[LimoLiberal]

The inclusion of AOC in that graphic is pretty desperate considering she said publicly it was "legitimate" to talk about Reade's allegation.

Fox News is trying their hardest because they want to deflect the ire against Trump on someone else right now.

The Blasey Ford case had way more evidence than Tara Reade, and Blasey Ford also had a way better track record of telling the truth than Reade does.

Ford's allegation isn't the only one against Kavanaugh.

Ramirez alleging that Kavanaugh that stuck his dick in her face actually has more meat to it because multiple people have heard of it at the time.
