How will the republic ever survive this shock.
For the life of me, I never understood the Avenatti boomlet. He was an failure as a lawyer and a failure as a crook and a failure as a fraud. Let’s face it, how many lawyers think its fine to run a fundraiser for a client…and not give them the money. Okay. That wasn’t a very fair question given that we’re talking about lawyers. How many lawyers have filed lawsuits on behalf of a client when the client didn’t authorize the lawsuit?
Avenatti let his dislike of Trump…or more probably his jealousy…lead him into perilous territory that resulted in the Senate Judiciary Committee sending a criminal referral to Department of Justice based on his behavior during the Kavanaugh hearing.
But Avenatti apparently took his candidacy serious, right up until his latest domestic violence arrest:
Avenatti’s presidential exploration wasn’t just hot air, he formed a political action committee, purchased a voter database used by the Democratic Party, and worked with a former adviser to Hillary Clinton. Avenatti made appearances in the early presidential primary states of Iowa and New Hampshire, advocating for a strategy of direct and merciless attacks on Trump to defeat him for a second term.
“What I fear for this Democratic Party that I love so much is that we have a tendency to bring nail clippers to a gunfight,” Avenatti said during a speech in Iowa in August. “When they go low, I say, we hit harder.”
Avenatti out! It’s not even 2019 and already the Dem field for President 2020 is shrinking. One down, 389 to go.

But, if one thing is certain, American political life is full of miraculous resurrections. I doubt we’ve seen the last of Creepy Porn Lawyer.
