Failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams explained to Vice why she believes former Vice President Joe Biden never sexually assaulted his former Senate staffer, Tara Reade.
"I think there are two pieces. One, I think believe deserve to be heard. Their allegations deserve to be vetted. They deserve to have investigation and they deserve the space, again, to describe their experiences, but the question I got was not only of Joe Biden's character but of my character," Abrams explained. "And if I believed that he had done what he's accused of doing, I would not be in any other conversations, because that's wrong."
"What he's accused of doing โ that he flatly and clearly denied, and I believe his denial โ speaks not only to who he is but to who I am," Abrams said.
If she believed that the former vice president sexual assaulted Tara Reade, she would not be endorsing Biden for president.
