Release the Kraken, Michael Avenatti.

If Trump wants to play the will I or won’t I fire Rosenstein to distract from the hearings on Thursday then I am more than ready to see Avenatti let loose on Kavanaugh. Avenatti plays the game better than Trump.

This is THE reason he'd be the one to beat Trump in 2020. Yea he's a celebrity lawyer with little political, leadership or policymaking experience. We have many others with more experience and leadership and policymaking skills. BUT -- can they beat Trump?

Unfortunately right now (could very well change though) I can't answer that question in the affirmative with any confidence regarding any potential candidate except this Avenatti guy. He kicks Trump's ass all over the place on media and in public opinion and like it or not that is where we are now and it matters.

AND he's a Democrat and has worked on Dem campaigns before. He has published his standing on a number of issues. Is he the best candidate? Dunno - probably not. But he can probably beat Trump.
