A top official with the Democratic National Committee is accusing Republicans of “dangerous weaponization” of Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation against Joe Biden and the allegations that Democrats are applying a double standard to the presumptive nominee.
“Republicans will undoubtedly try to paint Democrats as #MeToo hypocrites. But nothing is more dangerous to women’s welfare than Republican attempts to weaponize this issue,” Cardona wrote. “Although Biden’s critics will try to equate the allegations, they are really quite different.”
Cardona explained that unlike Kavanaugh and Trump, Biden has said that women who come forward with claims of sexual assault deserve to be heard and did nothing to disparage Reade, a former staffer in his Senate office who claimed he sexually assaulted her in 1993.
