Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has gotten into trouble many times around women.
This is just one of those times where it grows into more disgust. He kissed his 19-year-old granddaughter, Finnegan Biden.
It wasn't a peck on the cheek it was a smooch on the lips on camera during the Campaign rally in Iowa. It has disgusted many people including a lot of social media users.
From the New York Post:
“I would like to introduce you to my granddaughter Finnegan Biden. The reason I asked Finnegan — grandfathers are always allowed to embarrass their granddaughters — that goes along with the territory,” said Biden, 77, his hand over her shoulder. “Her other grandma graduated from Clarke College in the mid-’60s and talks about it all the time.”
“But granddaughters not only love their grandpops but they like them. And that’s the great thing. Thank you, baby,” he said before giving her a quick peck on the lips.
He's also been called out being handsy with seven other young women. He shows no respect for personal space it seems. This was weeks before his campaign started. One stood out, Lucy Flores, a Nevada legislator known formally. She accused him of smelling her hair and holding her shoulders during an event in 2014.
Heres what some of the grossed out social media users had to say:
“Nobody” posting on Twitter linked to a photo of the smooch and noted: “This is Biden with his granddaughter. I can’t unsee it so now you have to.”
Diante Johnson, president of the Black Conservative Federation, said: “No man should EVER kiss his granddaughter like such … This is a weird family. Who’s running this man’s campaign??”
