Michael Avenatti: The jackass, dissected
American Thinker ^ | December 14, 2018 | Monica Showalter

Want a good morning laugh?

Get a load of National Review's Kyle Smith and his hilarious vivisection of Michael Avenatti, whose rise and fall show just how absurd he and his Democratic cheerleaders always were. Here's the start of the piece and don't tell me you don't want to read further :

Remember when Michael Avenatti was the Democrats' big hope for 2020? He wasn't just that, though. Parachuting in to launch his presidential campaign to the DNC's "Ethnic Council" and its black caucus in Chicago in August, he enthusiastically adopted the party's guiltspeak. "People that look like me, white men, we need to stand up," he told his minority audience, exactly the kind of cost-free identity-politics self-castigation without which no Democrat can hope to rise very far. In the same month, Avenatti spoke at the "Democratic Wing Ding" dinner in Iowa and announced plans to visit at least 20 more states.

The response was fanatical. Avenatti was hailed as a hybrid attack dog and sex god. All Democrats bowed to the Trumpslayer. Picture a two-fisted, high-T version of 2008 Barack Obama, and you'll have some idea of how professional Democrats viewed him as they rushed to polish his boots with their tongues. "Hottie Avenatti" became a meme. ... "Unprompted, several Democrats admiringly discussed Avenatti's physique to VICE News," ran one reporter's account, noting that "I have a thing for bald guys" was a typical remark. (Great news, Joe Biden, you can take out your plugs!)

Michael Avenatti was the Democrat Slime Media’s point man to smear President Trump before the midterms. This was part of an overall propaganda campaign to make the American voter think that their support of Republican candidates was support for President Trump. By smearing President Trump, they used guilt-by-association to smear any Republican candidate for Congress. Trump stopped much of this tactic by holding rallies for Senate candidates. There was not enough time to hold rallies for House candidates. The stupid Republicans in the states did not punch back at the smears. Instead they cowered under their beds like scared little dogs.

Well said, that’s exactly right in my view.

If Speaker Ryan had in fact done his job and led the Republican House the loss of seats would have been less but I fully believe he didn’t give a whit.

Evicted from his law offices, accused of domestic violence (by a woman, which I guess is a plus, at least he's not a flamer), lied to his clients, lied to the press, lied to the public, and of course, my favorite:

That is the result of decades of brainwashing. Republicans far too often are terrified of the press and leave the brainwashing operation alone.

The defeats of the GOP last election is inexcusable, it should have been a slam dunk if the voters actually cared to see the Trump agenda move forward. Instead they threw a Nancy in the spokes.

My understanding is that the Speaker’s role is to carry the House business forward not lead a Party. Of course, the Founders were opposed to Parties when they wrote the Constitution.

One does not even have to be a Representative to be Speaker.

They could install any bum off the street should they wish and it might be an improvement.

How did anyone decide that Avenatti was a good choice for Presidential candidate?
He appeared on the scene as “porn lawyer” - then suddenly people were talking about him running for office like he was a long known & respected political figure. WH*?

You forgot not paying taxes....can’t recall if he even filed or not. Oh, and didn’t pay other outstanding debts, including his partner share in his law firm.

I’m not, there should have been no way to cheat enough to win a race with a rational electorate.
