Former Vice President Joe Biden says he never meant for the hugs and shoulder squeezes he has long doled out to women to cause them any discomfort. A Nevada Democrat named Lucy Flores says she felt uncomfortable in 2014 when she received a kiss on the back of her head from Biden, who’s considering whether to enter the 2020 Democratic presidential race. Democratic strategist Maria Cardona says Biden “has to acknowledge that his behavior made some women uncomfortable.”
