Michael Avenatti Thread (2 Viewers)

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.  


Not even close. He polled about 2%-3% at best in every poll that I saw. And no Democrats here talked about him as a top of the ticket contender.

This is about the point now where they all come in and then deny it, right?  As if this thread never existed?
No...the thread is all there.  The denial is that he was ever any legit anything.  Seriously...show me the posts of any regular in the PSF thinking he was some great candidate.

First page alone...one person said he was a fan.  Thats it.

Another said he would just like to see him debate Trump and primary Trump (not even knowing he was a democrat).  When he learned he was a dem...he said he would not want him near the top.

Some of you always act as if he was some legit candidate supported by a significant amount of people on here...and it was never the case.

Okay, cool, so I was right.  This IS about the time someone comes in here and denies it.  :lol:

Please point out examples of anyone saying he was a serious contender or being for him...better for sure if its any regular here.  Come one...you can do it.

Or...this will again go unanswered...more emojis...and this will repeat itself again in a few months as it has in the past.

Just like it did before...

:goodposting:

Just like the  Tulsa thread 


I didn't hide the Tulsa thread. That was done by a moderator. If you believe I was responsible tag a moderator and ask them to unhide or restore it (as they should do as we were specifically told not to hide threads that we start).

Paraphrasing something I saw on twitter, Avenatti running for President is like your favorite actor asking you to check out his band.


Most liked post on the first page.  Noone was taking this dude seriously with that crap.

I don’t recall people talking about him as a potus candidate, but that doesn’t matter.

When politics has you so blinded that you can’t see the reality of an obvious fraud, you’re doing something wrong.

No kidding. Avenatti was a shyster from the start. Just another Trump world figure that deserves to be locked up…

And yet, the first 10 pages of this thread completely refute what you just posted here.  :shrug:

No one on your side believed he was a shyster.  Although, we can believe the revisionist history going on in here regarding him except, well, there are those first 10 pages....  :lol:

This is mostly true.  People on the left, by and large, loved him.

The best part was that goof on CNN drooling all over himself when Avenatti came on. I actually watched CNN’s coverage election night 2016 and it was well done. Somewhere between then and that moment with Avenatti the whole thing went in the ditch. 

 
If I said anything nice about this scumbag I was wrong.

It would have been nice if the President of the United States wasn’t the kind of guy to go banging clownish porn stars while his wife was home with his newborn child, and then paying off said porn star for her silence, thus becoming co-conspirator #1.

Just a gross man that does gross things and draws in criminals.

Agreed...I never trusted Bill Clinton.

 
They loved that he ruffled Trump’s feathers. That seems clear by the actual postings people  made.
With the ferocity that you're posting yur kind of making yourself look guilty here.

As if you trying to convince people that you werent enamored with him.

Most people would probably believe you if the first 10 pages or so of this thread didn't exist.

:mellow:

You claim Sho was enamored with Avenatti in the first 10 pages of this thread.

Do you have single post of his that you can quote to prove that?

As on the other times I posted above…you are free to link to posts to refute me…the silence that comes when I ask you to do so is telling.

Instead…you keep making these baseless claims (using your own words…as if the pages don’t exist)

So i just have to ask…please stop making false accusations you refuse to backup…its disingenuous at best and is proving my point that posts like this from you are not in good faith.

There was some talk here in this thread, but as was pointed out at the time, he never polled more than 2%-3% in any poll, so he never taken that seriously as a POTUS candidate.

The 2% must have been from the PSF FBG lefties.  I even heard a rumor one of you guys wrote to Casey Kasem to play Wind Beneath My Wings as a long distance dedication to Avenatti

Then perhaps you can step on for what @BladeRunnerhas failed to deliver the links to these people so supportive of him  here and considering him a legitimate candidate?

 
Posts seem to disappear when situations changes….


But not the posts that responded to and quoted those original posts. The reactions on the first few pages of this thread all still remain (so it is obvious that there have been few if any posts deleted).

Of course, Avenatti was embarrassing Trump and threatening to make him suffer in court.  People loved Avenatti for that but I'm not sure how many people on the left trusted him.  Many have inherent distrust of politicians or lawyers and Avenatti loved self promotion from the start.

First 4 pages.  I gave up after that. It makes me sad when I see great posters like Noonan and Rove that no longer can post here while the same guys have been doing the same schtick. 
 

I've been wondering that.  I'd love to see him on debate Trump and primary him.


Why?  I mean the us just elected a freaking tv show host as pres....why not a lawyer next time around?


Now becoming a big fan of his work. 

He's fighting the terrible-horrible-disastrous Trump admin wildfire with a little bit of fire himself.  


Jesus. Not gonna lie, it's nice having someone willing to stoop to their level who is also better at it than they are.  And it's a bonus that he's a political outsider so the dirt doesn't rub off on party leaders.


100%.

Someone was fired from the lab where Fox News pundits without a soul are manufactured, and decided to make a liberal model.

So great.


And it works for him where it didn't coming from Rubio or Jeb!.


I'd rather have Avenatti work with my business finances or watch my children than Trump.  And that #### isn't close.


Maybe he would be qualified presidential candidate after all!!

Most of those you quoted are no longer posting in this forum if at all. And those that are still here were hardly on the "Avenatti For POTUS!" bandwagon (more like expressing the opinion that he might be viable).

Not shocking...you went for partial quotes without context.  The very first one...it was not about supporting him...(I mention it earlier in the thread)...it was about thinking it would be interesting to see him debate and primary Trump (the guy didn't even know Avenatti was a Democrat)  When told he was a democrat...he then stated he is probably not qualified and he would rather not see him on when it counts.  That is a bid disservice to @moleculo to claim he was some supporter of Avenatti as a serious candidate.

The second...you really think that was serious support of him as a candidate?  He was mocking the election of a reality TV star in Trump.  Once again...this does not hold water.

BST's post...a fan of him going after Trump.  Tobias' post the same thing. (with massraider adding to it that it just seems they created a liberal version of the outsider slinging mud)  Once again...not close to claiming he was a serious candidate or really supporting anything more than how he went after Trump.  Im sensing a theme...that pretty much the majority of actual support was for him slinging mud at Trump and not as a serious candidate for office.

Then you get to my post...where I said mudslinging stuff works from him (being a pretty sleazy guy I would add)...where such comments that come from Jeb or Rubio were manufactured to look like they could do it (because they are soft).  Once again...nothing in that post was me supporting him as any serious candidate for anything.

BST again...where are you getting support for the man as a candidate here?

And finally...your last post.  That is the closest you get...and guess what?  It was clearly a joke based on him responding to an article that Avenatti owed millions to the IRS.

So what happened?  You thought you proved something...but managed to prove my point.  People liked that he got under Trump's skin...but did not seriously consider him a candidate for office.  Glad you went through all that work to prove blade and others wrong...and just show my point.

 
Game.  Set.  Match.

Or Checkmate if Chess is your thing. 

Hopefully we can put to bed the Only Now Avenatti DeniersTM revisionist history claims.


True...it was an easy win.  I even got him to do the work for me.  Its only revisionist history if you claim any of that was support for the guy as a candidate and not just as a guy getting under Trump's skin.

He seriously proved what I have been saying the entire time...so how in the world is any of that posters taking him seriously?  This again is why I say you post in bad faith...just completely disingenuous to claim those people were in support of the guy as a candidate.

 
Most of those you quoted are no longer posting in this forum if at all. And those that are still here were hardly on the "Avenatti For POTUS!" bandwagon (more like expressing the opinion that he might be viable).
It wasn't even saying he might be viable...it was nearly all in support of him trashing Trump and little more.

They just dunked on themselves and are walking around high fiving each other for doing it.

So 4 years later you move the goalposts.  The quotes speak for themselves. No amount of lipstick is going to make that pig kissable.  You were wrong. Admit it and move on.
