Would love a statement like this from Biden's camp:
"Joe Biden has answered these questions and agreed to records releases to help clear his good name. Nobody wins in this situation if people threaten, abuse or in any way urge harm to Ms. Reade. Sexual assault is a heinous and serious offense and our country did not treat it with the seriousness it needed for far too long. That's why Senator Biden stopped up and admitted that at times in the past he violated women's personal space and made them feel uncomfortable without realizing how it made them feel. No one in our country will ever be able to say they made every right decision in their life but the good ones are the ones that stand up and admit when they are wrong and also show some class when defending themselves against false claims. That is how a president should act, buy leading with accepting responsibility acknowledging that in situations like these even if Vice President Biden never intended to purposely make anyone feel like this what matters is how did it make them feel and how can he help make it better. And Vice President Biden looks forward to this debate with President Trump where in perhaps he can learn something from Vice President Biden in how a president acts and accepts responsibility and continues to try to be better. We certainly look forward to President Trump responding to the 20 alleged sexual assault incidents that have been levied against him especially considering his complete willingness to brag about sexually assaulting women and how much women love it. President Biden would prefer to brag about an exponential increase in Covid 19 testing."
