You can't change your position when it suits you....keep on topic.
Very on topic. Attacks on one when the other has the same or worse is pointless. It seems the Seattle mayor agrees since it’s Biden she endorsed.

Exactly, one can't be pro-rape when it comes to Two Scoops trump and then change their position when it suits them.

If you want to make it an issue then it is an issue for both candidates. We are weighing two candidates against each other after all. The lone woman accusing Biden of sexual assault has suddenly changed her story after what, thirty years? And this woman is weirdly adoring of Putin, Two Scoops's patron. So, this single accusation suffers from a lack of credibility, especially against the backdrop that Biden's office and staff were considered a vanguard for the hiring and treatment of women before it became more common.

How many dozens of sexual assault allegations have been filed against trump now, with a pattern stretching back years and depositions under oath?

Why would Mayor Durkan demand an investigation of Biden? Did she demand an investigation into trump's sexual assault accusations?

The number is 25, apparently, the number of women accusing trump of sexual assault:

It's actually amusing watching a person twisting into a pretzel.

No one needs to twist themselves into a pretzel when evaluating two candidates, one with 25 sexual assault allegations over the years and the other with a single allegation. The choice is pretty clear for most.

Shaun King

"This much is clear. In 1993 the mother of Tara Reade was so disturbed by what her daughter told her what JoeBiden did to her, & the lack of help she said she got from his staff, that she called Larry King to talk about it in the week Tara stopped working for him."

Unlike the outright lies against POTUS and Kavanaugh this one has legs....While you rush to defend your Mayor by (again) dismissing a woman's rape. Yah it's pretzel time.

Bravo to both Seattle Mayor Durkan and WA State Gov. Inslee who were named by Fortune Magazine to the World's 25 Greatest Leaders list of 2020.

“In Seattle, the earliest U.S. hotspot, Jenny Durkan established the country’s first drive-up testing site for first responders, created a $5 million grocery voucher program, and shared her city’s hard-won lessons with her fellow mayors,” Fortune detailed.

https://fortune.com/worlds-greatest-...the-governors/

Both Mayor Durkan and Gov. Inslee, Biden's former rival, endorse Biden for the presidency. I linked above upthread the interview between Biden and Inslee on Biden's podcast, Here's the Deal, but here it is again:

I honestly have to laugh out loud at this, because someone who might be this woman's mother called into the Larry King Show and mentioned neither Biden nor sexual assault. At least with the accusations against trump and Kavanaugh there is contemporaneous and documentary evidence before the allegations came to light, describing the serious nature of the allegation. The allegation against Biden has suddenly escalated quite dramatically.

Sorry, there is someone on this thread twisted into a pretzel but it isn't me.
