The narcissistic, vindictive Michael Avenatti, better known as the “creepy porn lawyer” appears to have ambitious plans for 2020 – including a White House run.
Sounds crazy, right? Not so fast. Three years ago a lot of people scoffed at the idea of a Trump presidency.
Already Avenatti has dropped hints at running. He headlined an Iowan Democratic Party event known to attract presidential contenders. Stormy Daniel’s attorney has also attended Democratic events in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.
Now, he’s taking things to another level.
BuzzFeed News reports:
Michael Avenatti, the self-described potential 2020 contender and lawyer representing Stormy Daniels in her lawsuit against Donald Trump, is launching his own federal PAC to support Democratic candidates with “the size and the presence to really fight back and advocate from a position of strength as opposed to weakness.”
The organization, formed Thursday, will be called Fight PAC, he said in an interview here in between meetings at the Democratic Party’s annual summer meeting.
In the coming weeks, Avenatti said, he will begin making endorsements.
…
Avenatti, 47, has become the Democratic media darling of the Trump administration. He appears almost daily on MSNBC. Democratic National Committee members here greeted him as a star. The political operative turned attorney presents himself as a candid, no-bullshit messenger in a party that lacks a clear “public voice,” he said.
Thus far, Avenatti has declined to detail his plans for releasing any forthcoming endorsements.
