articles about Avenatti, since he was toying about running for president.

If it wasn't for Avenatti via Daniels lawsuit we would not know what has been revealed this week. His dogged pursuit of "How was Daniels paid" is why trump is having a very bad week.


So of course the right wing is going to demonize him.

Would Democrats actually vote for him if he ran for president. Some will. Pretty sure most won't. For me I would prefer him to be a surrogate for the eventual D nominee. He can beat republikkklans at their own game.
