Biden's campaign denies ex-aide-sexual assault claim
Joe Biden -campaign for the new charges has Biden disputed against him
the Former US Vice-President Joe denied the allegation that he had been sexually abused, a former aide-de-camp almost 30 years as a U.S. senator.
Tara Reade, who worked briefly as a staff assistant, the Biden Mr ' s has told the office that her former boss forced her against a wall, put hands under her T-shirt and skirt.
"This is absolutely not going to happen," Mr Biden campaign, Said This Week .
Mr. Biden, 77, is now the likely democratic candidate for President.
"He firmly believes that women have a right to heard and heard with respect," Said its spokeswoman for the campaign. "Such claims should also be checked conscientiously by an independent press. What is clear about this claim: It is wrong. "
Ms Reade, 56, described the statement in an interview with podcast host Katie Halper in March.
she was asked to deliver a sports bag for the senator in The Spring of 1993, She Said , and found himself alone with Mr Biden.
"It was not an exchange, really, he had Said against The Wall ," you to Ms Halper.
"I remember, it happened all at Once . His hands were on me and under my clothes. "He penetrated you with fingers, She Said .
"I remember him saying, the first, when he did it" do you want to go Somewhere Else ?", and He Said to me as I left. He Said , "Come on, man, I Heard you like me," She Said . "That sentence stayed with me. "
The fact that he was a fighter for the rights of women in their eyes, The Experience , the more earth-shattering, She Said .
Then-Senator Biden on the 1991 confirmation hearing for Supreme Court Justice Clarence ThomasMs Reade a criminal complaint filed on 9. April with the police, Said she was a victim of sexual Assault , But does not name Mr Biden. She Said in a tweet that she put the defendant "for safety reasons only", as the Statute of limitations for their claim expired.
Ms Reade was one of eight women to accuse the forward came Last Year , The Candidate of inappropriate touching, hugging or kissing, although none described His actions as sexual Assault at The Time . to be
In response, Mr Biden deliberately" in His interactions pledged".
this Will hurt Biden and His presidential candidacy? Probably notIt is possible that Tara could Biden Reade allegation of sexual Assault against Joe derail His campaign, But it seems unlikely. Here's why.
the Americans already know about the "touchy feely-ness" of the former Vice-President, and they considered that in so they chose him to be their candidate. He put out a video saying that he had learned from #metoo, that times have changed, and that His history of rubbing women's shoulders, kissed their heads, etc was reasonable. Apparently, this was seen as excuse enough for most of the PV-voters.
A charge of sexual Assault is of course more serious, But the criteria for assessing whether someone is a Sex offender is on the search for a consistent story from the Prosecutor and a pattern of the behavior of the defendants. Ms Reade tells various versions of Her Story in the New York Times, and So Far she is the only woman to accuse Biden of sexual Assault . If No Other , the Democrats might be inclined To Believe that your candidate about her.
Joe Biden was Running Against Donald Trump , has been accused of the sexual misconduct of around 25 women. That The President is using as an attack line can't stop, (he suggested it), But it does lessen the credibility of The Attack .
In the midst of this pandemic, which is almost No Other news to break. In a normal cycle, this story would be a lot more attention in the headlines and cable-TV. Today, it is hardly registered. This is useful for Biden.
The Democratic Party holds itself to a higher standard on inclusiveness of race and gender, as the Republican Party does, so this accusation is uncomfortable. But this year, The Standard , the most important of all Democrats always trump from the White house. Do you believe that Biden has The Best Chance to do that.
In a study in Ms Reade's account of the New York Times, Two Friends and Ms Reade brother Said , you described The Details of a traumatic sexual Assault by former Vice-President.
But the newspaper found no confirmation of the former employees of Mr. Biden, and found Biden "no pattern of sexual misconduct by the Lord."
Ms Reade Said she reported harassment by Mr. Biden, Without the mention of the alleged attack - several high-ranking members of Mr. Biden's staff members, including Mr Biden, Executive Assistant , Marianne Baker.
Ms Baker denies ever hear a complaint.
"I have absolutely no knowledge or memory of Ms Reade-accounting of events, would be left a burning impression on me as A Woman professionally, and as a Manager . "
After the staff declined to respond to reports of harassment, Ms Reade says that they have filed a complaint with The Senate . No record was found on a complaint. Soon After , Ms Reade Said , office employees most took their obligations, before they finally dismissed it.
Ms Reade has since coast, moved to the US West, where she worked for a state senator, an advocate for domestic Assault survivors and for the animal-rescue organizations.
The allegations surfaced, has just as Senator Bernie Sanders quit the White house race, Biden, Mr, in all probability, the democratic candidate for President. It is expected that Donald Trump in the US election in November .
