Here's what's behind the indirect approach to Tara Reade's allegations that Republicans have been taking
You’d think Biden was running against Brett Kavanaugh rather than Trump. Photo: Arnaud Andrieu/SIPA/Shutterstock/Patsy Lynch/Shutterstock Nobody is surprised that Republicans generally and Team Trump in particular are all over Tara Reade’s allegation of sexual assault against Trump’s presumptive November opponent Joe Biden.
The “hypocrisy” in question is not how Democrats, the media, or Biden has addressed the many sexual misconduct accusations against Trump, but the “double standard” utilized in assessing Christine Blasey Ford’s 2018 claims that then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh had sexual assaulted her when they were both in high school.
The idea is to stipulate that the enemy-of-the-people liberal media, the Democratic senators who grilled Kavanaugh in the Judiciary Committee , and indirectly Biden, Clinton, and Me Too feminists, have all exposed themselves as partisan hacks who only “believe women” when it suits their purposes. 1. It revives a grievance that united Republicans and conservatives. The supposed mistreatment of Kavanaugh was a powerful unifying force in the summer and fall of 2018, as Matt Lewis noted at the time:
2. It focuses attention on conspiratorial links between Democrats and the media. In the minds of many conservatives, the Kavanaugh case dramatized something they already believed — that the mainstream media is just the chattering wing of the Democratic Party, whose protestations of objectivity are completely sham.
