This afternoon, Donald Trump was asked to weigh in on Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden.
Trump was just asked about Reade before Biden. Good work, media!

Media officially have asked Trump about the Biden allegations more times than Biden

Sigh. So, what did Trump have to say?
"I think he should respond," President Trump says about the allegation made against Joe Biden. "It could be false accusations. I know all about false accusations."

Trump on Biden allegations: "I think he should respond. You know, it could be false accusations. I know all about false accusations. I've been falsely charged numerous times and there is such a thing."

Trump, asked what he'd say to Joe Biden about Tara Reade: "I don't know anything about it. I think he should respond. It could be false accusations—I know all about false accusations. I've been falsely charged numerous times."
He argues Brett Kavanaugh was "falsely charged."

Watch:
Video: And with that question from @ABC's @KyraPhillips, Trump has been asked about Tara Reade more times than Joe Biden. He invoked Kavanaugh for having been "falsely charged, what happened with him was an absolute disgrace to our country…I saw a man suffering so unfairly." pic.twitter.com/LxFPl2uYOI

Biden’s defenders should actually be pretty satisfied with that answer. They kind of have to be, don’t they?
And here's the box they've now put themselves into. https://t.co/e5NT8HrF2k

Real hard to come out hard against Trump on that statement now while defending Biden. Great work, team. A great hashtag, everyone.

Well, in any event, Trump’s definitely right about one thing: Joe Biden should respond. We’ll see what he comes up with on “Morning Joe” tomorrow.
