Avenatti quietly builds 2020 machine
Politico ^ | 10-29-18 | NATASHA KORECKI

Posted on 10/29/2018 3:29:00 PM PDT by dynachrome

Michael Avenatti has assembled a team of Democratic political veterans who are helping him coordinate meetings with donors, connect with national and state party officials, craft messaging and build out a digital fundraising apparatus designed to enable a 2020 presidential bid.

Avenatti’s already long prospects suffered a blow Thursday after he was quoted in Time magazine as saying the Democratic presidential nominee who will battle President Donald Trump “better be a white male” — remarks he contends were taken out of context. The same day, the Senate Judiciary Committee referred Avenatti and his client Julie Swetnick to the Justice Department for an investigation over accusations she leveled last month against Brett Kavanaugh, then a Supreme Court nominee.

But the Los Angeles-based attorney most famous for representing porn actress Stormy Daniels fought back aggressively against Time magazine and Grassley, and said Sunday he intends to move forward in his preparations with a team of 12 core political advisers, some on an informal or part-time basis.

Its not about winning with this asshole. Its about generating recognition/clicks/business and potentially being a kingmaker.

That’s what I thought about the Kenyan from Indonesia who attended Rev. Wright’s church of hate and started his political career in the living room of mad bomber Bill Ayers.

Plus he had really large debts to pay off. Really large.

Just needs a few idiotic Democrats to help with that.

This will be an “I told you so” moment regarding the foolish Democrats.

IOW, he's trying to stay out of prison by starting his presidential run, because he'd be a sure loser, and knows it. Thanks dynachrome.

I hope Politico goes all-in with Avenatti.

This should be popcorn-worthy.

Anytime the press says “quietly’ it’s a propaganda term, but in this case it’s just to keep Stormy front and center. This will blow up on the Dems.

I understand Politico is nothing more than a clickbait factory, but it's beyond the beyond that Obama/Biden are letting this guy hang it all out there and make Democrats look like a FOOL.

Particularly while #Biden and his main competitor #Karamela are already seriously ramping up in Iowa.

Particularly after completely derailing Schumer/Feinstein's Kavanaugh gambit.

Imagine if Avenatti actually starts campaigning soon in Iowa at some bought-and-paid-for Democrat shyster forums?

Trump #2020 will sweep the country like Reagan.

...I’m sure he’ll have no problem running his campaign from prison...

Maybe they will let him do it by a
“Cell” phone.

I’m gonna start my campaign for POTUS in 2020 today so I can rob the bank downtown next week.

Can’t arrest me. I’ll be a politician!
