There Is Way More Evidence Against Biden Than There Ever Was Against Kavanaugh

quote:

---

Wherever you stand on the allegations — and I think agnosticism at this point is still the most rational choice — there is no doubt that every person who believed Christine Ford should believe Tara Reade. If the evidence against Kavanaugh was enough to persuade you, the evidence against Biden should look absolutely overwhelming by comparison. Let’s recall: Christine Ford could not remember the day, month, or year of her alleged assault. She told nobody about it at the time that it supposedly happened. Nobody came forward to corroborate any significant detail of her account. Her own family remained conspicuously silent. Her good friend from high school said she didn’t remember the party where the assault allegedly occurred and she doesn’t believe Ford’s story. The only evidence against Kavanaugh — circumstantial or otherwise — was Ford’s own word. That was it. And that was more than enough to call him a rapist, according to many on the Left and in the media

By contrast, Reade remembers the alleged assault vividly. She can say exactly when and where it happened. She told people about it. Her family and former acquaintances have corroborated and verified whatever aspects they could. And Reade is accusing a man with a reputation for acting inappropriately towards women, while Kavanaugh, aside from the claims dug up during his nomination hearing, has exactly the opposite reputation.
