OPINION | Views expressed in this article do not necessarily reflect those held by Sarah Palin.
Remember all those folks on the left who cried “Believe all women” and went after Brett Kavanaugh despite there being no evidence to support the claim against him?
Some of those same folks seem just cool with completely giving Joe Biden a pass.
First, Ana Navarro basically said that Biden should get a pass because ‘Orange Man Bad.”
How problematic is that? Whether one is for or against Trump, what does that have to do with Biden’s behavior and whether it is inappropriate?
And there are actually multiple pictures and videos of Biden’s behavior with women and girls, with exactly the behavior claimed by the Democratic lawmaker who came forward, Lucy Flores.
But it’s all cool, Mika Brzezinski says, it’s just ‘Joe being Joe.’
From Mediaite:
She then defended Biden who she described as a friend “There’s a lot of things I know about Joe Biden– I’ve known him for a long time — he is extremely affectionate extremely flirtatious in a completely safe way,” adding “I am sure that somebody can misconstrue something he’s done. But as much as I can know what’s in anyone’s heart, I don’t think there is bad intent on his part at all.”

What does that even mean?
So she’s saying that the kissing the head, touching the shoulders is “flirtatious” but it’s all good because he doesn’t have any bad intent?
Somehow that’s not at all helpful, that’s revealing part of the issue, that he doesn’t get it isn’t appropriate interaction.
And where is the recognition of the feelings and concerns of the woman/women confronted by this “flirtatious” behavior?
Or doesn’t it matter it the person is thought to be the best candidate to take on President Donald Trump?
