Have you noticed how quickly the #METOO movement ended?

When Tara Reade said "METOO"

@Pfuzylogic I already knew the reason when I asked:

Doug Wigdor, on dropping Reade as a client said: “is by no means a reflection on whether then-Senator Biden sexually assaulted Ms. Reade. On that point, our view — which is the same view held by the majority of Americans, according to a Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll — has not changed,” Wigdor said in a statement sent to reporters, referring to a poll that showed most voters believe Reade's allegations.
In the statement, Wigdor said Reade has been subject to a “double standard” by the media, a point progressive critics of Biden and Republicans alike have made.
“We also believe that to a large extent Ms. Reade has been subjected to a double standard in terms of the media coverage she has received,” he said. “Much of what has been written about Ms. Reade is not probative of whether then-Senator Biden sexually assaulted her, but rather is intended to victim-shame and attack her credibility on unrelated and irrelevant matters.”

Sure, from that poll, done in early May:

[quote]55 percent of voters surveyed say they believe Reade, against 45 percent who say they do not believe she is telling the truth. Seventy-eight percent of Republicans surveyed believe Reade, while 66 percent Democrats do not believe her.[/quote]

Notice the flaw in these numbers?

The reason her law firm fired her, is that she's been lying to them about every detail of her life and career. But this branch of law is their bread and butter so they're not going to kill their own business and pretend this is not a good case. They work on commission.

She never proved one part of her allegation but tried to enable a fishing expedition. I am getting tired of people pointing the finger at Joe with no proof at all not even a polygraph. They haven’t even filed in court while trump’s ex-wife filed in court her rape charges and so did the 13 year old twice. Let me offer you a source that Tara can’t provide about your candidates rape past and this is in addition to the 30 some sexual assault complaints against trump. This is a rape that took place in Epstein island with a witness. Something more than Tara had which was a story that kept changing over several decades. She ought to be ashamed of her lies.
