That isn't really true. He floated himself and made appearances on CNN and MSNBC but never got more than about 2% in any poll.Just think - at one time the left floated this guy for a POTUS candidate and cheered him on.

Oh, there was much more than just floating himself.That isn't really true. He floated himself and made appearances on CNN and MSNBC but never got more than about 2% in any poll.

Tim - I have such a love/hate relationship with you. Sometimes you drive me up the wall with your posts and other times I can't believe we agree on things.Whether or not he was seriously considered for President, there’s no denying the dude was on CNN and MSNBC all the time and given tons of attention and respect, simply because he opposed Trump. And he wasn’t the only one- even now, that creepy slimeball Michael Cohen gets to be on one “serious” talk show after another- it’s embarrassing. And it’s a lesson that those of us on the “liberal” side can be just as gullible, just as accepting as those on the conservative side, so long as we hear stuff that makes us happy.
Of some? Yeah, well more like of very few. He was wasn't taken that seriously by Democrats, never saw him more than 2-3% in any poll.What a fall from grace from the one time democratic party hopeful nominee of some and having his face all over the liberal news networks to now this.

So what I said was 100% correct? Thanks and sorry if you were one of them.Of some? Yeah, well more like of very few. He was wasn't taken that seriously by Democrats, never saw him more than 2-3% in any poll.
Progressives played footsie with this clown for a few months.What a fall from grace from the one time democratic party hopeful nominee of some and having his face all over the liberal news networks to now this.

I wasn't one of them as a reading of the posts will confirm.So what I said was 100% correct? Thanks and sorry if you were one of them.
Man, what a #### move. In the same league as Madoff taking money from Elie Wiesel.actually embezzling settlement funds from a disabled client is much more morally perverse.
Sorry, I don’t have the time to review posts of your volume back them. I sure hope that’s the case but understand many won’t own it if it was.I wasn't one of them as a reading of the posts will confirm.
The early days of this thread are gold.Sorry, I don’t have the time to review posts of your volume back them. I sure hope that’s the case but understand many won’t own it if it was.
Cringy to think Avenatti was put on a pedestal by the Dems and Kavanaugh was attacked. Bizarre world we are in.Pretty good:

Below is my correspondence to Mr. Davis of moments ago, together with a sworn declaration from my client. We demand an immediate FBI investigation into the allegations. Under no circumstances should Brett Kavanaugh be confirmed absent a full and complete investigation.

Your post reminded me of a Maher clip I watched recently. Gist of it was that it’s embarrassing how little you have to know or be able to do to be a politician. While I’m sure most are highly educated and probably reasonably qualified there are some that have not completed HS and have no discernible skills. It’s just a tad scary.Progressives played footsie with this clown for a few months.
Republicans nominated their clown, got him elected, and blew up the democratic process for him.
That is just oddJury is now in its 3rd day of deliberations in the Stormy trial (in which Avenatti is representing himself) and the judge has a (potentially big) problem. I don't really care what happens to this guy, but its an interesting issue for the judge and AUSA to deal with.

Update?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."
Update?

You guys?And to think you guys once touted him as a possible Democratic candidate for POTUS.
Unbelievable…..from what I read in here to this. It truly sounded in here like he could have been the Democratic nominee and here we are. Wow.
Sorry I wasn’t basing it off of polls as much as the strong following he had in here I guess gave me that impression.squistion said:As been pointed out in this thread several times, he was never talked seriously as being the Democratic nominee, IIRC he never polled better than about 2%-3% among Democrats.
It's as if the first page of this thread doesn't exist or something.
Guys, we can all see what people were saying about this guy at the time. It's there, in writing.

Exactly…and nobody took him seriously as a candidate for POTUS on page one (did anyone ever). If they did…please link it.It's as if the first page of this thread doesn't exist or something.

Can you point out who on page one was considering him? Or anywhere in here seriously considering him an option?Cognitive Dissonance is a helluva drug!
I see no reason he should receive a pardon and I'd be very disappointed if either party chose to grant one.I would not be surprised to see him on the Biden pardon list in January 2025. If not, the Democrats might have to wait until 2044.
Why do you think Biden would pardon him when he is obviously guilty, and appears to have no redeeming qualities?I would not be surprised to see him on the Biden pardon list in January 2025. If not, the Democrats might have to wait until 2044.
He doesn't. It's just another post of a specific type. His buddies liked it though.Why do you think Biden would pardon him when he is obviously guilty, and appears to have no redeeming qualities?
That's precisely why.Why do you think Biden would pardon him when he is obviously guilty, and appears to have no redeeming qualities?
That makes no sense at all.That's precisely why.
He was a Democratic Party firebrand and top of the ticket contender. The well connected non-violent and political insiders seem to be the types considered historically for pardons.That makes no sense at all.
You think President Biden is going to Pardon Avenatti?
That seems like a non-possibility. Why would he?
Avenatti is nothing to anyone, and between he and Trump, Stormy Daniels is a sympathetic figure.
I have to disagree with the bolded, for awhile there he was a rising star of the Democratic party.That makes no sense at all.

Name one poster who thinks Avenatti deserves a pardon….He was a Democratic Party firebrand and top of the ticket contender. The well connected non-violent and political insiders seem to be the types considered historically for pardons.
There are posters in this forum that would probably write his appeal to Biden based on the first few pages of this very thread.
Avenatti was the San Diego Chicken of the Democratic Party for a couple years.
Name one poster who thinks Avenatti deserves a pardon….
Crazy talk.
Meanwhile, Matt Gaetz…
You guys? Who? Link the posts please rather than continuing to make baseless assertions. We already heard a claim its on page one…yet nothing there comes close to such claims.A few short years ago you guys were not only cheering him on, but supporting him as a POTUS candidate.
