Is This Guy The Thug Who Threatened Stormy Daniels?

This morning Stormy Daniels' attorney Michael Avenatti released a sketch of the man Daniels says threatened her and her young daughter in 2011 when she was planning to go public with the story about her affair with Donald Trump.

Before Calamari, Jr. was the Director of Security for Trump, his dad had that job. Here is a story about Matthew Calamari which should at least suggest the techniques his son may have learned.

Donald Trump’s security guards once shoved, threatened, and held a 12-year-old boy and his mother against their will after her husband promised to go public with damaging allegations against the Trump Organization, according to the family’s account in FBI records and court filings.

The incident is one of several in which Trump surrogates have been accused of going to extreme lengths to protect him.

I might be able to give you the chin.

Of course, stormy's in a better position to answer.

But to me, no, this is not a match.

It is rumored they have a hidden stash of converted rapid-fire Melanzane, and then no SWAT team in the country can stop them.

And if he were, it won't be proven seven years later without somethng like a record of payment in Cohen's files. Is there even a date/time when the threat was issued?
