‘Again?’ Don Jr laughs as creepy porn lawyer Avenatti is hauled off to jail in the middle of hearing
2020-01-16
Responding to this story from yesterday.
[BIZPACREVIEW] A sure sign that Tuesday was an overall good day was evident when creepy porn lawyer Michael Avenatti was arrested — again.

A development that prompted Donald Trump Jr. to engage in a little schadenfreude.

Avenatti was arrested by Internal Revenue Service agents Tuesday evening in Los Angeles, during a break in a State Bar Court disciplinary hearing over allegations the controversial attorney scammed a client out of $840,000, Fox News reported.

When the hearing resumed, Avenatti was nowhere to be found. His attorneys called for a sidebar with the judge and said that their client would not be able to return due to circumstances related to a criminal matter in Orange County.

That his arrest came on the night that the dismal 2020 Democratic presidential field was holding a debate was only fitting, given that Avenatti once entertained an idea of running for president on the party ticket.

All of which proved to be too much for the president’s eldest son and namesake, who was disappointed the one-time attorney for porn star Stormy Daniels wasn’t on stage with the other candidates.

“Again???” Trump Jr. tweeted. “He would have been more entertaining on tonight’s #demdebate than these jokers. What happened? Michael Avenatti Arrested by Feds at California State Bar Hearing.”

#2  Sean Davis at the Federalist did an awesome walk down memory lane with all the MSM douchebags that were washing this guy's balls.

Now he'll have a cellmate to help him with that!

#1  Remember: the Democratic SS was proposing that this disgusting reptile run against DJT for PRESIDENT. Yep, that's right: the 'Resistance' idiots were pushing Avenatti for President.

IOW these howling maroons have for three years been screaming bloody crimes and treason etc against s.o. who's completely innocent of same, and they proposed that his replacement be an actual felon - an extortionist, a thief, a fraudster who stole from his own clients, for chrissakes.

Let that sink in.
