He's certainly good at running Trump in circles. Trump even keeps his muoth and tweets in check regarding MA. Not many can do that so I think Avennati knows how to circle his prey.

New tweets from Avenatti [View all] manor321 Sep 2018 OP

Avenatti seems to get a lot of info "over the transom" DeminPennswoods Sep 2018 #1

That's not Avanatti! That's his doppleganger friend who happened to be in the same Twitter account. TheBlackAdder Sep 2018 #50

??? Pachamama Sep 2018 #53

It's a reference to the Dr. Ford case, where Kavs friends were saying it was someone who looks same. TheBlackAdder Sep 2018 #57

No, it is not a reference to the Dr Ford Case. It implies there are other girls who were raped by Nitram Sep 2018 #140

That's not what my post was about. It wasn't about Avanatti's literal post. TheBlackAdder Sep 2018 #145

LOL Rorey Sep 2018 #64

Ha ha! Good one. Pacifist Patriot Sep 2018 #116

I'm starting to think we could do a lot worse than have Mr. Avenatti as our nominee in 2020 Va Lefty Sep 2018 #2

We could also do much, much better. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #6

That might be a good idea or someone with at least a plan Sherman A1 Sep 2018 #8

He has a plan. GemDigger Sep 2018 #78

So does he Sherman A1 Sep 2018 #109

It's been awhile since Andrew Yang's name has come up on DU FM123 Sep 2018 #126

I do as well, I don't know if he will get enough traction to be Sherman A1 Sep 2018 #127

Just a gentle suggestion FM123 Sep 2018 #129

Certainly but it will Sherman A1 Sep 2018 #134

WAY too many deal breakers in that list. Independents win elections. 7962 Sep 2018 #137

We have tried that, didn't work out to well. He has his positions up on twitter. Va Lefty Sep 2018 #9

He's a celebrity lawyer who's never done anything but litigate civil cases The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #13

You may be correct. Just expressing my opinion Va Lefty Sep 2018 #15

He's also a tad shady ismnotwasm Sep 2018 #28

Explain what tad shady means Sucha NastyWoman Sep 2018 #82

Oh just look him up ismnotwasm Sep 2018 #128

If you're going to pretend to be knowledgeable about a subject, at least have SOME.... DonViejo Sep 2018 #117

I knew that. I was talking about his legal career, not stuff he did in school. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #121

Do you think he might be good veep material? eleny Sep 2018 #14

No. We have a lot better people than that who have real experience. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #17

Yeah, I think there ought to be someplace for him eleny Sep 2018 #23

Name them Sucha NastyWoman Sep 2018 #81

Here are some, in alphabetical order because I can't/won't rank otherwise: The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #85

Biden? No way. Not after Anita Hill. And he's just made it worse lately, pnwmom Sep 2018 #107

I was just listing possibilities, not endorsing them. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #122

And I would prefer Avenatti to Biden, but I'm open on the rest. pnwmom Sep 2018 #125

Have to agree justie18 Sep 2018 #139

Not only that, he very recently put out a statement putting all the blame pnwmom Sep 2018 #144

Avenatti isn't qualified. Just another "media personality" chasing after cameras. PSPS Sep 2018 #21

Imo, he has more depth than that eleny Sep 2018 #25

Totally agree. He's got what's needed in his gut. Plus he's Laura PourMeADrink Sep 2018 #80

It takes more than that to be a good president EffieBlack Sep 2018 #93

Yikes is there a way to get an alert when a particular Laura PourMeADrink Sep 2018 #95

Huge difference between the two Sucha NastyWoman Sep 2018 #84

Just another media personality who graduated first in his class in law school pnwmom Sep 2018 #108

Do not get starstruck Lithos Sep 2018 #104

I talked about his evident abilities not any "star" factor eleny Sep 2018 #133

I will be supporting Tom Steyer who has significant experience in waging the battle StevieM Sep 2018 #43

Maybe. On the other hand, I will cheerfully support shanny Sep 2018 #99

Any Democrat is better than any GOPer. That goes without saying. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #100

At least he knows the law. He's an attorney, calimary Sep 2018 #132

significant experience in government GregD Sep 2018 #135

Avenatti sure speaks out more than lots of those with significant experience womanofthehills Sep 2018 #151

I like him too, doing what he's doing. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #152

Oh good grief Roland99 Sep 2018 #11

Actually, we could do no worse. PSPS Sep 2018 #16

We need somebody who can WIN! Va Lefty Sep 2018 #24

It's no good winning if they suck at being president. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #26

I disagree Va Lefty Sep 2018 #29

So an incompetent ninny would be fine as president as long as he's OUR incompetent ninny? The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #30

You said "It's no good winning if they suck at being President" Va Lefty Sep 2018 #34

Do we want to be like them when we have so many good candidates? The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #37

Not my intention to be divisive. Just expressing my opinion. Please enjoy rest of weeekend! Va Lefty Sep 2018 #39

Why are you so threatened by Avenatti? Sucha NastyWoman Sep 2018 #105

Not if you don't get enough Democrats behind your candidate. leftofcool Sep 2018 #115

Whoever can control the media narrative is who wins NewJeffCT Sep 2018 #142

They're going to find out it's no good. n/t Mr.Bill Sep 2018 #40

So how are you so sure he wouldn't make a good president? Kingofalldems Sep 2018 #49

He has never held ANY elected or other position in government. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #55

So how do you feel about the big news in the OP? Kingofalldems Sep 2018 #58

If it's true, great. But the fact that Avenatti tweeted a hint (which he's done before) The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #61

You mean he should do things the traditional way Sucha NastyWoman Sep 2018 #106

He could not be anymore incompetent than Trump. smirkymonkey Sep 2018 #62

I don't think Avenatti is an incompetent ninny but so far he's dead last on my list The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #66

He can't win... Democrats aren't the dumbshits that republicans are. demmiblue Sep 2018 #51

Let's not get crazy. We don't know much about him. bitterross Sep 2018 #47

He has quite a detailed bio at wikipedia. Grasswire2 Sep 2018 #98

I want him as our VP. How about Cory Booker as President. trueblue2007 Sep 2018 #72

Love me some Cory ... dude is sharp as hell and would make an AWESOME candidate ... mr_lebowski Sep 2018 #102

Well we have actual qualified individuals so.... Ninsianna Sep 2018 #86

I'll take half a Sen Harris tazkcmo Sep 2018 #131

No Lefty, Avenatti is not presidential material. He is an excellent defense attorney. Nitram Sep 2018 #141

Here's hoping .... LenaBaby61 Sep 2018 #3

Because they lie and cheat...it's their MO. BigmanPigman Sep 2018 #33

Kavanaugh would be very smart to just accept guilt and step down. IluvPitties Sep 2018 #7

He wants this too badly meadowlark5 Sep 2018 #12

He reminds me of Ted Cruz, but without the smarts. IluvPitties Sep 2018 #67

He can't at this point... colinmom71 Sep 2018 #31

He can't admit guilt... reACTIONary Sep 2018 #74

He needs to resign idcdu Sep 2018 #123

"Our media strategy" ? This attention hound inserts himself into everything. Trust Buster Sep 2018 #10

This "attention hound" is why we got Cohen. shanny Sep 2018 #18

No, Mueller got Cohen on tax evasion. The attention hound had nothing to do with that. Trust Buster Sep 2018 #27

Without the Stormy case, implicating Cohen and Trump, Mueller probably might not have seen it. TheBlackAdder Sep 2018 #38

Oh, I think Mueller is a whole lot smarter and more thorough than that. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #45

Yes. Very early on, no one was paying attention to Cohen, it was just a Russia-limited investigation TheBlackAdder Sep 2018 #54

Do you think Mueller didn't know about him before Avenatti got involved? The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #59

I didn't say that. I said Avanatti got him looking at Cohen and the American public too. TheBlackAdder Sep 2018 #65

Mueller knew about him, but they were losing momemtum. 33taw Sep 2018 #91

In fact, he almost made things worse. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #41

the raid on Cohen's office / home was about the Stormy Daniels case shanny Sep 2018 #97

"Dr. Ford is not alone. Buckle up - that includes you Mark Judge. #Basta" Jarqui Sep 2018 #19

So far, Avenatti's record on calling things in advance are all correct... Pachamama Sep 2018 #60

Sounds like there were more women attacked by these two scumbags...Judge and Kavanaugh. roamer65 Sep 2018 #20

Yes, that's how I read it too: more accusers (NT) HuskyOffset Sep 2018 #120

Looks to me like Avenatti wants a piece of this. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #22

Seems like the GOP was aware of this. Iliyah Sep 2018 #32

This or his $200,000 debt and gambling habits. BigmanPigman Sep 2018 #35

On Reddit I'm hearing this too. OliverQ Sep 2018 #36

He's beginning to sound a lot like Trump, who also demands the women look like models.nt Honeycombe8 Sep 2018 #44

That's why they had the letter prepared there is another incident they know of grantcart Sep 2018 #48

Is there any links on the intern looking like models part? Thx in advance uponit7771 Sep 2018 #75

What indications, I wonder? nt Honeycombe8 Sep 2018 #42

Republicans hate Avenatti and fear him too. Kingofalldems Sep 2018 #46

Given his record for accuracy, this is going to be interesting. bitterross Sep 2018 #52

Kick this big news. Kingofalldems Sep 2018 #56

Saw Avenatti last night in San Francisco at a Janz fundraiser! Red to Blue/DUMP Nunes! deurbano Sep 2018 #63

Is there still a Stormy Daniels case happening? oberliner Sep 2018 #68

Any comment on the OP? Kingofalldems Sep 2018 #69

Last I read Stormy's case against Izzy Blue Sep 2018 #90

Well, it's not exactly a huge leap to assume that there are other victims. GoCubsGo Sep 2018 #70

A little bit of Avenatti lillypaddle Sep 2018 #71

Good Grief watoos Sep 2018 #73

+1, He's been accurate and effective... don't understand it either. Don't care if he's out front ... uponit7771 Sep 2018 #77

Could Avenatti be referring to Izzy Blue Sep 2018 #76

No. Kingofalldems Sep 2018 #110

Bad news,really bad, this was the other girl Ford said was at the party. Izzy Blue Sep 2018 #79

Unless that girl was also attacked at the same party why should she remember? Nevilledog Sep 2018 #83

Good point Izzy Blue Sep 2018 #88

What I don't understand Izzy Blue Sep 2018 #92

Here's the problem. Nevilledog Sep 2018 #94

There's another thread discussing this. Nevilledog Sep 2018 #96

Thank you, your're so right, all assumptions. Izzy Blue Sep 2018 #101

Get her under oath. OnDoutside Sep 2018 #146

They could subpoena her... *IF* it would be helpful. Silver Gaia Sep 2018 #147

Republicans won't allow that, but if she makes a formal police complaint in Maryland then that ups OnDoutside Sep 2018 #148

I agree, but Silver Gaia Sep 2018 #149

perhaps other women have asked him to rep them? samnsara Sep 2018 #113

Avenatti is the perfect person to do what he does. It's necessary to have some muscle on the left. VOX Sep 2018 #114

THANK YOU +++++ nt bonniebgood Sep 2018 #118

You've summed it up perfectly - Av is a slick and tough hard puncher onetexan Sep 2018 #138

Something else I noticed about Avenatti bashers watoos Sep 2018 #119

Obama had been a state senator and then a U.S. senator before running for president. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2018 #124

K&R Scurrilous Sep 2018 #130

He's been accurate enough to raise my hopes ooky Sep 2018 #136
