Here is something interesting that I've noticed on Twitter and Facebook

Many of the people who are denouncing Biden as a rapist with the rationale that all women should be believed were attacking all nine women who accused Al Franken as liars just a few months ago.

I guess for them all women should be believed but only when they accuse a politician that they don't support.

Disclaimer: I'm not making any commentary about either the Biden or Franken cases. Just pointing out the differences by some of their response to each.

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

Also, they don't seem to be at all concerned with the 23 women who have claimed IMPOTUS assaulted them.
