50. Biden has to speak up? Puh-lease. The New York Times already thoroughly debunked. But hey,

maybe it's just easier to keep up your concern.

Here's the final debunking of all debunkings for Doubt Machine sunshine Democratic reposters:

The Times interviewed Ms. Reade on multiple days over hours, as well as those she told about Mr. Biden’s behavior and other friends.

The Times has also interviewed lawyers who spoke to Ms. Reade about her allegation; nearly two dozen people who worked with Mr. Biden during the early 1990s, including many who worked with Ms. Reade; and the other seven women who criticized Mr. Biden last year, to discuss their experiences with him.

No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade’s allegation.

The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden.

Moreover, Obama and Biden were oppo researched in 2015.

Not once did any hint about Reade's Senate filing ever appeared on FOX News during the entire eight years that Biden was VP. But FOX and Republicans were calling for Obama's impeachment over wearing a tan suit.

Not once did Republicans bring up Biden as having Trump's problems while Trump's been in office. This is the product of the Brad Parscale-Putin troll machine, the one that expects the cult to have amnesia over any and all 17 filings in court of Trump's own sexual harassment and assault charges.

Is all this good enough for you?
