This guy has gone beyond his defense of Stormy Daniels to defending immigrant children who have been separated from their parents, along with taking on Trump directly on other issues and speaking in front of The White House today:

“Our troops didn't die in Yorktown, didn't take Normandy beach, didn't rebuild Europe and secure the postwar peace that you are now destroying, Mr. President, for you to live as a Manchurian candidate in our White House.” My speech in front of the White House moments ago.

I think he's a D.
Thats too bad.  He's probably not at all qualified to be president so I'd rather not see him when it counts.  Probably couldn't get thru a democratic prary anyways.  Doing he's got much more going for him than his role as BizarroTrump.

 
I nominate him to moderate all Presidential debates.  Seems like a natural.

Of course I'd be shocked if Trump ever showed for another debate.

 
He's a D who. during college, IIRC, worked on Gephart's campaign and also worked for Rahm Emanuel's oppo research. 
He's said he won't run for a congressional or AG position, but it is more than a rumor that he'll consider a 2020 presidential run. But not necessarily more than a publicity stunt He contends that  only a street fighter can beat Trump, so says he'll run (you know,to save the country) if he doesn't see another candidate he's confident can beat Trump. Thinks only a few currently speculated to run qualify. And, of course, he won't name them. 

 
Michael Avenatti outside court earlier:

"I found Mr. Giuliani's comments last night on Chris Cuomo to be very interesting. I've said it before and I'll say it again: This guy is a train wreck of a lawyer, in fact I think he’s the best lawyer we have working for us on the case."

 
Avenatti on MSNBC this AM:

"This is going to end badly for Donald Trump. His criminality and criminal behavior are finally going to catch up to him." Avenatti also pledged to fight for public depositions (Trump, Cohen) in Stormy Daniels case.

 
More Avenatti: on MSNBC:

"I am highly confident that in coming weeks we are going to negotiate a resolution with Michael Cohen related to the civil litigation that we have with him... cooperating with me in our attempts to get to the truth and bring Trump to justice."

Appearing live tonight with @TuckerCarlson at 8pm. Get your popcorn ready.

 Michael Avenatti‏ @MichaelAvenatti 12h12 hours ago

Tucker Swanson McNear Carlson @TuckerCarlson: Do you truly expect people to believe that you have never viewed porn? When is the last time you viewed porn? You demean my client and me because of her profession, meanwhile you are an absolute hypocrite. Nobody likes a hypocrite.
:yes: :popcorn:

 
Popcorn?? Get your popcorn ready . Avenatti, the porn lawyer, probably does the old popcorn trick.
He is not a porn lawyer. Defending an adult film actor in a civil action for breach of an NDA does not make one a porn lawyer.

Alan Dershowitz defended Harry Reems on federal charges for distributing obscenity across state lines, yet I have never heard anyone, even his harshest critics call him a porn lawyer.

Anyway, it will be interesting to see how many times Tucker interrupts and talks over Avenatti, who should be able to hold his own unless Tucker cuts off his mic.

 
A little background from The Hill on what lead up to Avenatti's appearance tonight on Tucker Carlson:

Avenatti to appear on Tucker Carlson show

Michael Avenatti says he will appear on Tucker Carlson's Fox News program on Thursday night in what promises to be an explosive confrontation between the two men who have traded verbal blows for months.

"Appearing live tonight with @TuckerCarlson at 8pm. Get your popcorn ready," Avenatti told his more than 728,000 Twitter followers on Thursday afternoon.

Carlson, an opinion host on the network, has referred to Avenatti as "the creepy porn lawyer." 

On Wednesday night, Carlson and Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce teed off on Avenatti regarding his Wednesday appearance on ABC's "The View" alongside Daniels. 

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, argued on the roundtable talk show that President Trump was debasing the presidency in an appearance to promote her new book due out next month. The tell-all is expected to discuss her career as an adult film star and her alleged affair with Trump more than a decade ago.

"They gave three segments of their show to a newly-minted political pundit who has spent her career having sex with strangers for money," Carlson said Wednesday night after playing clips from the program. "Along for the ride was her creepy porn lawyer who, even by his own low standards – and we know a lot about it – was especially creepy today."

"We usually have a word for men who encourage women to sell themselves for sex," Bruce said later in the segment, in reference to Avenatti. 

Avenatti responded by asking Carlson if he ever viewed pornography on Twitter.

"Tucker Swanson McNear Carlson @TuckerCarlson: Do you truly expect people to believe that you have never viewed porn? When is the last time you viewed porn? You demean my client and me because of her profession, meanwhile you are an absolute hypocrite. Nobody likes a hypocrite," he wrote.

Avenatti in an interview with The Hill dismissed Carlson's nickname for him while pivoting to the president. 

"He’s been calling me that for months. I noticed that he doesn’t call his president the 'creepy porn president,' when Donald Trump is the one that had unprotected sex with my client four months after the birth of his son. I find that rather ironic," he said.

Avenatti appears on CNN and MSNBC on a regular basis, but has avoided Fox News for the most part. 

The last time the 47-year-old was supposed to appear on a Fox show, "The Story with Martha MacCallum" in April, he canceled, citing a scheduling conflict. He has only appeared on the network once, with "Fox News at Night" anchor Shannon Bream.

This was classless, even for Tucker and Fox:

Yes. After he told me that he was not going to engage in “name calling.” This is why so many people correctly conclude that @TuckerCarlson is a liar, just like Trump.
