Things just got a lot worse for Joe Biden.
Even though he finally addressed the allegations against him on MSNBC, it wasn’t enough.
Even the notoriously liberal New York Times is calling for a thorough investigtion.
And they want the DNC to do it.

Guess Who the NYT Wants to Investigate Tara Reade’s Sexual Assault Allegation Against Joe Biden
The New York Times on Friday penned an editorial calling on the Democratic National Committee to investigate Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations made against former Vice President Joe Biden. The editorial board made the case that the DNC had an obligation to look into the allegations because Biden is the presumptive Democratic nominee…
According to the editorial board, Biden agreeing to let the Secretary of the Senate release documents, it’s “a start, but does not go far enough.” They believe that the records at the University of Delaware should be unsealed. As it currently sits, the files are sealed until Biden retires from “public life,” whatever that means.
The former vice president has repeatedly denied the allegations, but the NYT believes that’s not enough. Instead, the editorial board believes the DNC should put together an “unbiased, apolitical panel” to investigate Reade’s allegations.
The DNC did not want to hear this from the New York Times. In fact, they have already responded:
In response to the NYT editorial board’s suggestion that the DNC assemble an “unbiased, apolitical panel” to inventory Biden’s Senate papers, DNC communications director @XochitlHinojosa calls this an “absurd suggestion on its face” and argues Biden has already been fully vetted. pic.twitter.com/QgrPJT6svh

Hinojosa’s statement, a full defense of Biden by the DNC, says he’s already “asked for transparency” by requesting any relevant Senate records and cleared a bar “like no other” with Obama’s 2008 vetting process.

She also told me there’s no precedent for the kind of independent DNC panel proposed by the NYT ed board.

This is a nightmare for the Democrats.
And they did it to themselves.
