Does anyone who didn’t feel like their space was violated really care about this? No. If the Democratic pols, Bernie bros, and progressive activists trying to kill Biden 2020 on the launchpad were serious in their concerns about him, they had eight years to make the case. Yet there were never any calls for Biden’s head when he was a sitting vice president or discussion about replacing him on the ticket with someone less handsy in 2012. When confronted about this point, several liberals sent me a link to a single Daily Show take out on Biden in 2015, seven years into his presidency. If a jokey Samantha Bee segment is all the accountability that was needed then, I don’t understand why Biden is being “cancelled” now.
And as for the Trumpy Republicans going after Biden . . . ayfkm? Twenty-three women have accused the current president of sexual misconduct, almost all of them mirroring the sexual assault modus operandi that Trump bragged about on the Access Hollywood tape. Trump had previously boasted to Howard Stern about how he would walk in on teenage girls getting dressed at beauty pageants saying, “I’m allowed to go in because I’m the owner of the pageant and therefore I’m inspecting it. You know, I’m inspecting.” A pro-Trump PAC put out an ad criticizing Biden with the tagline, “our kids are watching.” No kidding. They are watching you and what you are doing is despicable.
