Ocasio-Cortez says it’s ‘legitimate to talk about’ allegation against Biden

The Hill: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Tuesday addressed a sexual assault allegation against presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden by a former Senate staffer, saying it was “legitimate to talk about.”

Ocasio-Cortez was asked about the allegation against the former vice president during an online forum hosted by The Wing, a women’s network and community space, by a questioner who said she was strongly opposed to President Trump’s reelection but that she also “really resent[s] the fact that the other choice is someone who has a really long history of being creepy to women,” citing the allegation by former staffer Tara Reade.

“I think it’s legitimate to talk about these things,” Ocasio-Cortez responded, according to CBS News. “And if we want, if we again want to have integrity, you can’t say, you know — both believe women, support all of this, until it inconveniences you, until it inconveniences us.” more

  1. I wonder if she’ll change that as the election (both primary and national) draws closer?

    Seems to me that the Democrats don’t want such things considered to discuss when it comes to their leadership.

  2. Didn’t she hear that entire NYT editorial board cleared Biden of all impropriety because the accusations are “cold”?

    Lying horse faced pony soldier! Wait till Biden pokes her in the chest and challenges her to go out back to see who can do the most squat thrusts.

  3. Oh, give her a break – she’s just telling us what is legitimate to talk about and what’s not. We all need her guidance.

    We desperately need someone to interpret the constitution for us. It’s a big, complex document that the people will never understand without her help.
