Howard Kurtz or as Trump refers to him Howie, of course ignores a couple of things. Biden unlike Trump only has one woman accusing him of sexual harassment. And that woman less than a year ago had a different story that didn’t involve sexual harassment. She’s probably gotten far more coverage than any one of Trump’s accusers. This during a pandemic that Trump fumbles daily. Both Biden and Trump have been in the public eye for decades. Trump has a long history of sexual harassment, lying and also bragging about it. Biden just doesn’t.
Uh, there are at least 7 previous women who have accused Biden of touching them in a n uninvited creepy, sexual and inappropriate way. Jessie Watters on his show last night went through the list on Watters' World.
And regarding Tara Reade getting "more coverage", apparently you never heard of Stormy Daniels. Aside from Daniels herself, her lawyer Avennatti (a k a, "creepy porn lawyer") himself was interviewed wellover 100 times on CNN. And in addition on MSNBC and the other liberal media channels.
Even in the case of Christine Blasey-Ford, the lying accuser of Kavanaugh given the most media legitimacy despite no supporting evidence, where not even her friends would verify her story, there is
nothing verifying her story.
As compared to Tara Reade, where she told at least 4 people and her mother about Biden's attack on her. There is a videotaped phone call from Reade's mother to Larry King's CNN show talking about her daughter's assault and her inability to get anyone to take the assault seriously in the Senate, short of going to the press.
Where a California newspaper unearthed a court testimony transcript where Reade's ex-husband in divorce proceedings in 1996 let on that Tara REade had told him about a sexual assault she endured while working in Senator Biden's office.
Where multiple interns that Tara Reade was supervisor for said Reade was their supervisor, until she was abruptly removed and banished to a corner office. Where Reade was clearly an employee of Biden's, was clearly removed from her regular duties at the time of the incident, and negotiated some kind of end to her employment as a result of no one taking the the assault seriously.
As compared to Blasey-Ford where no one can confirm that she
ever even met Kavanaugh, let alone that the two were ever even alone together, or that there was any witness to anything resembling a sexual assault. Blasey-Ford can't remember the day she alleges the attack occurred, the house where it allegedly occurred, how she arrived, how she got home, any witnesses. But her we
have to believe, no questions asked!
And Tara Reade is treated dismissively, despite far more supporting evidence.
Like Bill Clinton's accusers are ignored.
And JFK's , RFK's, Ted Kennedy's.
Like the current date-rapist Lieutenant governor of Georgia, and the Klan-robed governor.
I see a pattern here. If the accused is a Republican and it can be weaponized against them, we are to believe them. If the accused is a Democrat, it is selectively not covered as long as possible, and covered minimally and dismissively, if covered at all.
There is no interest by Democrats in actually protecting women, only in weaponizing allegations. If the accused is a Democrat, the DNC protects the Democrat, not the woman, and further tries to discredit and destroy the woman.
