    No it’s not enough to say he’s guilty but it’s a dark fucking cloud to be following him around during an election.
    "I'm not saying he's guilty.  He just needs to prove his innocence!"

    How does Biden get out from under this dark cloud?  How does he prove he's innocent here?

    It's kind of a catch-22 isn't it?

    So...you don’t have to agree with me, obviously, but hold up....

    A rape accusal, whether it’s true or not, but can’t be proven one way or the other, is not baggage for a presidential hopeful? It’s not a dark cloud? YOU have lost your sensibilities then. 

    Reide may be full of shit but there are people here who are a little too eager to dismiss what she is claiming. Pretty fucked up.

    I don’t follow. IF Sanders was accused of rape, I would not be okay with that, no. Where did I give that impression?

    Yes, I’ve acknowledged it as such. 

    I guess he doesn’t prove his innocence. It’s either ignored, swept under the rug as you’d clearly like or he does the right thing and drops out of the race.

    Does anyone know why the democratic topic was closed? I cant find personal attacks on the last page but maybe some commenters were going after Biden too much?

    Usually any comments in violation are deleted.

    What is there to sweep under the rug?  

    The three primary standards of proof are:
    proof beyond a reasonable doubt
    preponderance of the evidence 
    clear and convincing evidence

    These allegations don't meet any of these standard and should be ignored accordingly

    Bernie is actually asking people to donate to charities that support relief for covid 19 not his campaign.

    He has also been supporting striking Amazon and Whole Foods workers. As well as going after Walmart to provide better for their employees.  His threat of slow walking the CARES bill if it didn’t adequately provide for workers and worker protections is also one of the things that helped the bill move past the republicans with as much help as it had for the benefit of the working class.

    I’m not saying Biden isn’t doing anything, but offering advice to Trump is hardly leadership.

    Good for Bernie! I anticipate he will have lots of time to dedicate towards charity in the near future.

    And good for Biden!

    Maybe when Creepy Joe calls his boy Don, he can pick up some tips on shrugging off rape accusations. Though he seems to be doing it just fine.

    You seem to be okay with a rape accusation,  any rape accusation,  against Joe Biden.

    That’s a funny way to spin it. I’d like to not believe it but I’ve long thought the man was a fucking creep, because he acts like one in plain sight. At the very least, the accusation should be taken more seriously and it isn’t.

    Accusations happen in a court of law

    Smear campaigns happen in the media

    It should be taken more seriously, she should be deposed
