        I've been to 3 Trump rallies. I was not paid. I certainly did not receive $150. What kind of new democrat smear is this? Make up whatever slander/libel suits you?

        Hey you, Your word isn't good enough. Show evidence that you have been to a Trump rally. Otherwise go boof yourself. FYI: "Boofing" refers to taking drugs anally.

        Your word is still not good enough. Show evidence that you have been to any political rally. If you can't provide the date, year, location, you are not credible. Also, have you boofed like I suggested? If not, get to it.

        As the minority party from 1933 to today and beyond the Republicans have a preference for winning dirty over being honorable and honest.

        The confounding thing is how so many Dems think Avenatti is some sort of tough fighter qualified to do anything except fight in the mud w Donald. Exactly what we don’t need. We need ppl voting, not a mudwrestling match.

        Avenatti's currency with some Dems shows the problem with people who are low info voters. Reminds me of a study that showed 25% of respondents that accepted creationism identified as Democrats.

        That seems high to me too, especially now that every issue is moving toward being partisan, even scientific ones. And I like Avenatti, but need to know more about him before I'd cast a vote for him. What's the problem with him?

        He has a long history of cheating business partners & employees, bankruptcies, liens, dubious legal filings, he bashes Dems to try to get ahead, he crowd sources off of every story of the week he can to pay for his living expenses, he pals around w Trump apologist Scaramucci, 1/

        he tried to fund raise for himself off of Beto’s name last week but was shamed into deleting the tweet. That’s a good start. Here is a Moment w many articles about him.https://twitter.com/i/moments/1032086123475083267 …

        Avenatti please go. but, in July 2018 he met w/ Michael Cohen, party to Trump action to enforce NDA against Daniels. Cal bar rule bans atty. discussion of case w/ parties represented by another attorney w/o attorney's approval. Other topics are fair game. No follow up on line.

        Avenatti then denied he asked Cohen anything related to the case. Cohen’s attny disputed his statement & told Avenatti not to talk w his client, even if in a casual conversation. Avenatti claimed it meant they were scared of him. He is so obvious.
