I'm not going to vote for Biden or anything like that, and his treatment of other people certainly deserves scrutiny, but everything I've heard, from victims and members of the press who have known Biden for decades, is that his touching was invasive but not sexual.

He's a touchy-feely guy, on an equal opportunity basis with both sexes, or was. He's never had any other whiff of sexual scandal, according to the press. He really seems to have been no repsecter of people's personal space or body-consciousness, which is simply unacceptable in a leader, but apparently not a sexual predator.

Such differences deserve to be acknowledged, because unlike racists, sexists, and authoritarians, we think the truth matters.
