No thanks.  I'll never vote for a bigmouth with no political experience.

[Fondren & Main 6670]

What a fucking goof.

[burntorangebongos 10681]

nope. bad plan.

[Horn Under a Bad Sign 20344]

If it comes down to him and Trump, I'm voting for Avenatti.

[Blotto 23434]

Is he trying to get a Mulligan on his 15 minutes of Fame?

[Mdhorn 5911]

Ugh! Avenatti--why put yourself under that kind of scrutiny? When representing the under belly of society, you may want to rethink putting a giant microscope anywhere near your business dealings.  

[RomaVicta 29791]

Wake up, Mike. It's a bad idea, see? Snap out of it.

[Hugo Stiglitz 23356]

This was a huge miscalculation by Avenatti.  He hurt his own credibility by this move. 

[BrazilHorn 6576]

Hrs a blowhard idiot. Much better to be on sidelines sniping at Trump vs in fray directly. 

Could be D long game to have him in there and play bad cop allowing real candidate to stay out of mud. 

[Brisketexan 104622]

Y'all realize we're going to get a whole lot more of idiocy like this, right?  And these idiots will win elections.  

Trump set the standard now.  And the standard is "there are no standards, just publicity."

Shia Labeouf, 2028.  Unless president Kanye wins a second term.

I thought it was crazy when Gopher from the Love Boat was elected to Congress.  That ain't shit for what's coming next.

If we get another celebrity after Trump, I'm quitting this country for sure.

Don't sleep on this guy.

[Nivek 16859]

No thanks.  I'll never vote for a bigmouth with no political experience.

I thought we liked outsiders? Drain the swamp!

[Incredulity 11554]

truth of the matter is Congress is already chock full of idiots

Go Gata.

 

[ChiTownDoc 21101]

Of all the clowns brought up in this thread, none are worse than Trump.  Let that sink in...

Friend of mine was a congressional page around the time Gopher made it to Washington.  One day my friend had elevator duty and Gopher gets in.  When the elevator went up and the doors opened, my friend let out an enthusiastic “Promenade deck!”

Friend was summarily run off, fired and shit canned within the hour.

Nah, Fred was a legit politico/lawyer who dabbled in acting, not the other way around.

Agreed except I’ll be on the beach in Costa Rica the second my son graduates high school.

Can you not.  Can you just not

[babysdaddy 2718]

Would he be worse for you guys?  He's a bulldog attorney he seems to be pretty good at getting media coverage and he now has name recognition.  Trump winning should let you all know that this guys chances are greater than 0.

I confess a past certain intrigue by outsider candidates.  No mas por favor.

If the investigations into the Dotard crime family are still ongoing when Beto wins the Presidency, I hope he appoints Avenatti as Attorney General.

Fuck that, he should have been promoted.  Take a joke, pussy.

That was pretty much the reaction among our friend group.  If I had been "Gopher" in that situation I would have worn that shit like a badge of honor.

"Yeah mother fuckers... been here one week and fuckers know who the fuck I am.  Gonna be all up on your committees.  Can I get a hell yeah?"

But that's just me and I've never been elected to shit.

Avenatti is serving his highest and best use right now.  He needs to stay in that lane.

[TwiceHorn 31280]

Actually, I'm fairly certain that the only reason he brought this up is that he found his timer was at 15:01 and counting.

700 years ago, in March, Avenatti started his journey and looking back on it is fucking hilarious (start at about 18:30...)

[bad_teammate 13132]

Start ~8:30

I'm starting to like this guy A LOT

 

[bad_teammate 13132]

I was initially dismissive of Avenatti as a candidate, but the reality is that the Democrats are going to be unable to get an establishment candidate out who will appeal to a very angry Dem base. Avenatti will come out swinging against racist cops and the border patrol. He has no ties to long-standing monied interests and lobbyists.

Pelosi and the establishment are out there saying that OF COURSE they love the Dems who support Kavanaugh and OF COURSE they love ICE and OF COURSE they love the excesses of abusive capitalism and blah blah blah... 

If Avenatti comes out with his stellar Twitter game and a Bernie-ish policy platform, he could steamroll any establishment Dem put in front of him.

 

[Blotto 23434]

He's a sleazy opportunist who has no business chairing a city council, much less the presidency. If that's the best the dems can do, we're fucked either way.
