Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is doubling down on his denial of Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation.

During Tuesday’s interview with George Stephanopoulos on “Good Morning America,” Biden was asked what he would say to the American people who are considering not voting for him because of Reade’s allegations.

“Well, that’s their right,” Biden said of voting, adding, “Look, here, I think women should be believed. They should have an opportunity to have their case and state it forthrightly what their case is.”

Biden went on push back again, reiterating that it “never happened.”

He continued, “Then, it’s the responsibility of responsible journalists like you and everyone else to go out and investigate those. At the end of the day, the truth is the truth. That’s what should prevail and the truth is this never happened. This never happened. I assure you. That’s the truth.”

Biden’s remarks come just days after Reade’s interview with Megyn Kelly where she offered clarity on her allegations against the former senator.

She also explained why she previously voted for him and former President Barack Obama.

“I wasn’t voting for him,” Reade said of Biden. “I was voting for Obama. I mean, I was really hopeful and happy that Obama became president and Joe Biden happened to be on the ticket.”

Multiple reports have also highlighted one of Reade’s notable tweets. In 2017, she actually praised Biden for being honest.

“My old boss speaks truth. Listen,” Reade tweeted at the time.

In explaining that tweet, Reade said it was strategic and not personal. She said, “During that time — I’m an expert witness on domestic violence issues, as you know, so that was, like an account, you know, part of that awareness of domestic violence and other violent acts.”

Reade continued, “I’ve always been conflicted about Joe Biden, I didn’t want to talk badly about him. And I wasn’t ready to tell my history with Joe Biden at that point at all.”

There have been mounting concerns from Biden’s campaign about “inconsistencies” in Reade’s claims. Additionally, Reade has called for Biden to drop out of the presidential race.
