There is plenty of evidence to show how unbelievable Reader's accusation is if you bother to look.
Believing women means taking what they seriously and investigating it - not believing every story someone comes up with.
First of all, Biden was thoroughly vetted to be President Obama's Vice President. I have no doubt they were thorough.
Reade's story has changed many, many times.
Time's Up Legal Defense Fund referred her to multiple attorneys at the National Women's Law Center and every single one of the attorneys declined to take her case. They said she was asking for PR help - not legal representation.
Ronan Farrow, Jodi Kantor, and Megan Twohey all did extensive interviews with her and decided not to report her story because of the unsubstantiated claims and inconsistencies. They all won Pulitzer Prizes for covering the Weinstein investigation.
In 2009 - after the alleged assault she praised Biden for sponsoring the Violence Against Women's Act
She has written multiple pieces praising Russia and Putin and claimed Putin was secretly in love with her.
Supposedly she has also stolen from a charity.
She is NOT credible.
Democrats do have a very formidable enemy - Trump and the Republicans. But who needs one when they constantly shoot themselves in the foot.
This is NOT a credible story and it's not going to bring St. Bernard's campaign back to life.
