I believe they were about to go on stage. Lots of people around. Biden put his hands on her shoulders and gave her a kiss on the back of the head. Those are the facts.

My interp is that he saw she was nervous about the rally and speaking, and sought to reassure her that she’d do great like he would his son or even Obama.

I agree that he probably made her uncomfortable, Biden should back off on the hugging.

Is he a harraser or a groper. No

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

I bet you apologize when people say you've done something to make them uncomfortable, though. WhiskeyGrinder Mar 2019 #12

We've seen this play before. As soon as he apologizes , press misrepresents it claims he's "guilty" emulatorloo Mar 2019 #14
