What are your thoughts on the #metoo movement? Are you in the group who thinks that women are too shy about accusing attackers and that the movement will help make them safer? Maybe you’re in the camp that thinks the movement is waaaay out of control and threatening due process and the rule of law. You could be anywhere in between, and you’d still be able to appreciate the irony of Joe Biden’s recent news.
He went in hard when Brett Kavanaugh was accused of sexual assault. He told us that we should believe the accusers and that they shouldn’t even have to make an official statement. He went as far as to say that Kavanaugh should be disqualified from serving on the Supreme Court without a hearing that investigated the accusations. In other words, he showed complete disregard for due process.
Now that the shoe is on the other foot, you can see how quickly he reverses that position. Sure, he tries to pander with his language and says that women should feel free to accuse him and “speak their truth,” but he’s certainly not taking the position that he’s no longer qualified for office. Some might say that the accusations against Biden are less severe, but they’re also more believable.
In fact, there’s plenty of video proof that Biden is a creepy guy who inappropriately touches women and likes to smell their hair — especially young women. We’re not here to accuse him of assault, but we’re not going to make excuses for him either. You can watch the video and decide for yourself.
