Orange County Republican under fire after 3 women come forward with #MeToo allegations of sexual misconduct

Republicans in Orange County are in chaos after allegations of sexual harassment surfaced at a GOP endorsement meeting.

"As Orange County Republicans considered a 2020 endorsement last week for Assemblyman Bill Brough, R-Dana Point, one local official made a surprising public declaration," the Sacramento Bee reported Monday. "County Supervisor Lisa Bartlett accused Brough of making unwanted sexual advances during their time together on the Dana Point City Council."

"I couldn't move," Bartlett recalled in an interview. "I didn't know who it was at first. It really startled me, then I realized it was Bill. I remember looking up at him and saying, 'What are you doing? Let go of me.' He wouldn't let go and said something to the effect of, 'Let's get out of here. Let's go get a drink and do something.' And I just kept saying, 'Let go of me, Bill. Let go of me.'"
"It's not politically motivated," Bartlett said. "It simply isn't. It's something that I never even really wanted to talk about. ... But if it will effect change in the positive direction to help save other women from encountering Bill Brough's behavior, then, to me, it's worth it."

That allegation resulted in a second woman coming forward with accusations against Brough.

Another Republican with a receding chin who believes "womens" should get more of his interference in their lives.
