Michael Avenatti Could Force Trump To Go Under Oath As Early As Next Month

From the article:

In an interview with MSNBC’s Ari Melber, the attorney said that his team has a hearing scheduled on Sept. 10 to ask the court to rule on whether Trump and Cohen will be forced to sit down for a deposition.
“We’re going to ask that the stay be lifted and the court rule immediately on our application to depose Michael Cohen and Donald Trump forthwith,” Avenatti said.

Frankly I think that there is ZERO chance he'll be able to depose either of them, especially Drumpf.

But it creates a sense of anticipation for those of us who want to see it happen, and it also generates billable hours.

You're absolutely correct.

But remember, he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue, and get away with it.

People like him never get held to account. He's a stubborn SOB, determined to get his way every single time.

Articles like this understandably get my hopes up. But then reality sets in, and nothing happens.

I think it's all smoke and mirrors, and deep down, Avenatti knows it.
