Following his endorsement from far-right Speaker Mike Johnson, Scott Baugh is continuing to tout support from the extremist by campaigning with Johnson at a high-dollar fundraiser in Newport Beach tonight.
This comes as no surprise, given Baugh has already committed himself to Johnson’s MAGA platform, from banning abortion without exceptions to not protecting same-sex marriage.
While Johnson’s lack of fundraising and campaigning acumen is posing a problem for California Republicans, it shouldn’t be a problem for Baugh, who has already faced 20 criminal charges – four of them felonies – for breaking campaign finance laws.
DCCC Spokesperson Dan Gottlieb:
“Scott Baugh is showing Orange County residents exactly who he is and what agenda he supports by campaigning alongside anti-abortion extremist Mike Johnson. Baugh can’t be trusted to stand up to MAGA extremists or Donald Trump – and voters will ensure he faces consequences this November for quickly aligning himself with these far-right leaders.”
