13. I've tried very hard NOT to make this binary. I've made it clear that I don't think Flores is lying

Mar 2019

about what happened, but that she's misinterpreting it.

I don't know how to put any positive spin on her lie about Biden and Ash Carter's wife, though, since that smear was debunked years ago and she brought it up again and wrote a completely inaccurate description of what actually happened with Stephanie Carter in her essay.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
