When Joe Biden began his 2020 bid for president, critics put his decades-long, creepy habit of touching women in the spotlight.
But after establishment Democrats rallied around the former vice president, the attacks fizzled — until this weekend.
At the Iowa State Fair video shows Biden forcibly grabbing a young girl by the arm after she questioned his policies.
It all began as Biden walked through a crushing crowd of reporters and photographers,
A brave young girl wove through the crowd to ask Biden a question.
“Mr. Vice President,” she said. “I’m a student here. And I’m wondering how many genders there are?”
“Pardon me?” Biden replied, thrown off guard.
“How many genders are there?”
“There are at least three.”
A visibly upset Biden wouldn’t let it go.
“Don’t play games with me kid,” Biden said. The girl began to walk away when Biden was seen grabbing her arm.
Biden pulled her back, saying “By the way, first one to come out for marriage was me,” likely in reference to his support of same-sex marriage.
The video, shared by conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, quickly went viral —
Isn’t that sexual-harassment grabbing a young girl’s arm and pulling her toward you. Joe Biden is a predator !
