So now there are reports that a loudmouth lawyer is feeling the pain of a plummeting public standing.<\/p>\n

Cry me a river, will ya?<\/p>\n

The lawyer is one Michael Avenatti, who I believe is the least sympathetic public figure this side of Donald John Trump Sr. He represents — for now! — Stephanie Clifford, aka Stormy Daniels, the adult film actress\/stripper who has alleged that she and the future president of the United States had a one-night fling about a dozen years ago. She got a $130,000 hush money check to stay quiet — about an event that Trump says didn’t happen. Go figure.<\/p>\n

Avenatti has been a cable talk-show staple since Clifford\/Daniels burst onto the scene. To be totally candid, this guy annoys me in the extreme. He shows up everywhere. He is on a first-name basis with all the leading talking heads. He clearly has established himself as being part of the most dangerous place on Earth: between Avenatti and a TV camera.<\/em><\/p>\n

Well, now his stock is plunging.<\/p>\n

Stormy Daniels says he isn’t representing her correctly<\/a>. He is doing and saying things in public without her permission. Daniels says she is considering dumping him as her personal counsel.<\/p>\n

What’s more, he was accused briefly of striking a woman in a “domestic dispute.” Avenatti, who is estranged from his wife, denied it vehemently. The local district attorney then decided to forgo filing a formal felony criminal charge against Avenatti. The Los Angeles city attorney’s office, though, is still pondering whether to pursue a misdemeanor case against him.<\/p>\n

And then there’s this: Avenatti is — or was<\/em> — considering running for president in 2020 as a Democrat. His modus operandi<\/em> reportedly is to become the Democrats’ pit bull in a fight with Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

If they go low, according to the Avenatti Doctrine, we go even lower; we fight ’em tooth and nail, hammer and tong; strap on the brass knucks; let’s get ready to rummmmmble!<\/em><\/p>\n

I want this guy to vanish. I am tired of hearing his voice, of looking at his mug, of listening to him proclaim how he is always right and everyone else is always wrong.<\/p>\n

Say good night, counselor.<\/p>\n\n
