3. The weird thing about Avenatti is that Trump doesn't really go after him much on a personal level

like he does just about everyone else who doesn't bow and scrape to him. It makes me think Avenatti's DVD is not just a blank prop. What did Stormy film??? LOL.

laying off Avenatti just in case there really is a tape. Feelings of guilt can be a heavy load and dumb as he is, trump does not want to poke the bear so to speak.

We don't need our own inexperienced attention whore.

I'm hoping it's Kamila Harris with Joe Kennedy lll as her VP

That could set us up with 16 years of White house control. (yes, I'm a dreamer*)


*But I'm not the only one.

7. If Avenatti runs for POTUS let's hope he refrains from mud slinging.

We don't need our eventual nominee damaged from opposition research generated by someone who's supposed to be on our side.

8. He lost me when he started talking about running for President

I'm fine with him becoming a celebrity himself for the way he goes right at Trump, but that's it. .I am done with over sized egos and people who think they can run the United States of America because they ran their own business without serving a day in public office or in government.

10. Keep an open mind, folks. Avenatti is a Dem, he's smart and a fighter not afraid to take on trump.

Also, on a recent trip, Avenatti personally deliver a 9-year-old immigrant boy home to Guatemala...

where he was re-united with his mother after 81 days of separation.

He's not a one-trick pony, he actually walks the walk on Dem party issues.

He is an ambulance chaser who has a client tied to a scandal. Sorry if I don't trust lawyers right now.

Can you show me the set of balls that don't run and hide at even the thought of being lightly winged? The snowflakes of the human anatomy.
