A third woman has come forward to accuse Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct, and President Trump-foe Michael Avenatti has her back.
Julie Swetnick went to high school near Kavanaugh and said he was at parties where incapacitated girls were "gang raped," she revealed in a sworn affidavit Wednesday. Avenatti represents both Swetnick and Stormy Daniels, the porn star who says she had an affair with the president, leading Trump to compare himself and Kavanaugh.
