Here he is joking about the allegations last summer.
“I want the press to know, she pulled me close."

"He put his hand around my neck and pulled me in to rub noses with me. When he was pulling me in, I thought he was going to kiss me on the mouth."
There were even lessons to be learned...that no one apparently did.

SNL mocks Biden's inappropriate touching (yeah some of this is part of the problem if they are unwilling to have serious convos about it but, yup, they knew)

"Assume that all of Biden's gestures were entirely innocent, just Joe being Joe. Still, in today's society, sexual harassment complaints have been lodged for less."

"There is a Spanish saying, “tragame tierra,” it means, “earth, swallow me whole.” I couldn’t move and I couldn’t say anything. I wanted nothing more than to get Biden away from me."

Oh, but please remember there were instances last summer after he came to this understanding.
Also, I'm sorry but "social norms are changing" doesn't give him a pass. HE NEVER SHOULD HAVE MADE A WOMEN FEEL CREEPED OUT.
