Fake news? Reading the article, it is obvious that the reporter is minimizing what happened to Reade and to some others mentioned. Biden’s actions were just passed off as being normal and accepted back then. Changing social norms have placed those actions in a different light today. Move on, nothing to see here.

If we take your premise literally to mean her 2019 accusations of being fired for not being eye candy "serving drinks" for a Senator and then being retaliated against, how does that stack up against the Democrats disqualifying Mitt Romney for having "binders of women" in 2012, meaning background checks on qualified women to work in his administration?

Were the actions she DID recount really acceptable "social norms" in 1993, Bill Clinton's first year in office, or is it really changing the goalposts when the Democrats are on the receiving end of the scandal?

Was Romney having research on highly qualified women in 2012 WORSE than Biden wanting women staffers to be cocktail waitresses in 1993?
