WASHINGTON -- A Nevada Democrat who accused Joe Biden of touching her without permission says the former vice-president has been "so incredibly disrespectful" by joking about the matter.
Flores, a former Nevada state legislator, said she wants to force a discussion of how powerful men treat women, even as she affirms that her recollections of a 2014 encounter with Biden don't involve touching of a sexual or violent nature. "That is unprofessional, inappropriate behaviour, no matter who does it," Flores added, saying that Biden and others have made light of his long history of openly affectionate behaviour toward others, particularly women.
