Lisa Boyne, a fourth accuser, joined them for a news conference later that day.Leeds, Holvey and Crooks reflected on what it was like to watch Trump get elected after they had accused him of sexual harassment and assault.“It was heartbreaking last year when we all — we’re private citizens — for us to put ourselves out there to try to show America who this man is and especially how he views women and for them to say, ‘Meh, we don’t care,’” Holvey said. “It hurt.”Leeds told HuffPost that she isn’t optimistic that sexual misconduct allegations against Trump will prompt his resignation, despite the #MeToo reckoning affecting Hollywood and some political circles.“Unless Congress gets the courage to act as a body and hold him accountable, then nothing is going to happen,” she said Monday.WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING?As accused molester Roy Moore heads into a special election for a U.S. Senate seat this week, Rep.
