How much evidence must there be for Democrats to take Tara Reade seriously?

Published



Something happened to Tara Reade in Joe Biden’s Senate office.

We do not know whether it was sexual harassment or sexual assault — which is, to be frank, a distinction without a difference — as either, if true, should be disqualifying for Biden, particularly given his recent emphatic denials. We also, to be fair, do not know who the perpetrator was, or what he said or did to Reade afterward that led her to leave Biden’s Senate office in 1993.
