...most people would not be surprised to learn The Donald has other children and paid for abortions. While I celebrate the information coming out, I believe his fans will #1) Consider it all lies, or #2) Not care. Some would not care if he ate the baby in a FOX TV special.

Then their deplorables love them even more. When democrats sin tho there is no possibility for forgiveness.

I am sure they spend a lot of their free time figuring how they can give the other person a bad media day.

Avenatti is on solid ground. There is just no bluff there. He is an experienced litigator who was made for this moment.

4. So, Avenatti is boasting about "what he has done" to trump

He might be more careful, this is not about him. He is representing a client.

6. Probably several before it's all over if his attitude is any true indication.

I've found little to criticize about his predictions so far.

This is going to get a lot more interesting I'll wager and much worse for Dump.

he needs to be careful about boasting what "he" is doing to trump. Trumps attorney's and everyone else is listening to him closely. Seems to me, they will do everything they can to discredit him and if he is boasting about what "he" has been capable of doing to Trump that no one else has, he is could be setting himself up for issues down the road. I am no lawyer, just saying, he needs to keep on topic with representing his client(s) and not a whisper about his is own agenda.

10. You have a good point. I'd hate to see him get too cocky.

Getting too enamored of one's self leads to mistakes. He cannot afford to make mistakes.

9. I appreciate that he gave his staff credit for making him look good.

He's a smart guy. So non-45 like. You give credit where credit is due like that and then the staff will work even harder. They will put their hearts into the effort.

For 45, there certainly is a cult following. They are going to put their hearts into the effort to defend and save 45 because they've been brain-washed into a cult.
