Pelosi pushed back against the tone of former vice president's apologies after recent allegations of unwelcome contact
Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday that she does not think the allegations against Joe Biden of unwelcome contact are disqualifying for a 2020 run, but that the former vice president should be more aware of others’ personal space.
Biden's camp initially responded to Flores' allegation by offering a statement from him saying he has “offered countless handshakes, hugs, expressions of affection, support and comfort. And not once — never — did I believe I acted inappropriately. If it is suggested I did so, I will listen respectfully. But it was never my intention."Sign Up
Biden also said that he did not recall the moment the same way, and noted he would be surprised to hear those accusations. However, following Flores' continued media appearances, Biden's spokesman Bill Russo issued a new statement aggressively pushing back against Flores' suggestion that Biden had a history of being too touchy with women and making them uncomfortable.
