A lingering allegation of sexual assault against Joe Biden is fast becoming a test for the presumptive nominee—and how he handles could impact the first presidential contest of the MeToo era. Biden's campaign has denied the allegation.
The former secretary of state endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden, when she appeared as the"special guest” at his virtual town hall Tuesday afternoon., a virtual town hall focused on women’s issues Tuesday was a chance to try and burnish his credentials with a crucial constituency without veering into uncomfortable territory.
“This absolutely did not happen,” said Kate Bedingfield, Biden’s communications director earlier this month. Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden speaks during a rally at Tougaloo College in Tougaloo, Mississippi. The March 2019 allegations began when a series of women came forward to accuse Biden of physical contact that made them feel uncomfortable, such as unwanted hugs, kisses on the head, and standing uncomfortably close. Reade was among that initial group of seven accusers. None of the women, including Reade, alleged assault at that time. Biden sought to address the group of allegations in a video posted online.
These new allegations from Reade surfaced with virtually no corroboration or paper trail, as is the case with many sexual assault allegations. They appear to reflect an evolving narrative from Reade, who had earlier limited her complaints about Biden to allegations he inappropriately stroked her neck and twirled her curly hair between his fingers. Reade later told ABC she resisted stepping forward sooner with the assault claims because she feared media blowback if she did.
