MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski says she's concerned about the 'political nature' of Lucy Flores' Joe Biden accusation
MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski is coming to former Vice President Joe Biden's defense after a woman accused him of kissing her inappropriately.
Morning Joe on Monday discussed the recent allegation from former Nevada Assemblywoman Lucy Flores, who says Biden inappropriately touched her and kissed the back of her head at a 2014 campaign rally. Brzezinski said that Biden, who she has known for "a long time," is "extremely flirtatious" but in a "completely safe way," per Mediaite. She argued that Biden had no "bad intent" in this instance and was only trying to be "nice" but that "I'm sure somebody can misconstrue something he's done."
