No Mercy: Donald Trump Jr. Is Just Torching Michael Avenatti Over His Extortion Charge

Remember Michael Avenatti? Well, he’s the lawyer who represented former adult film actress Stormy Daniels, who allegedly had an affair with President Donald Trump. Daniels sued Trump for defamation. She lost and was ordered to pay the president’s $290k legal tab. Avenatti also was told by a judge to pay his neglected child support payments. He was also evicted from his law offices for not paying rent for months and slapped with a multi-million dollar judgment from one of his colleagues at his firm. Then, he was slapped with domestic abuse allegations. Prosecutors decided not to press charges. Avenatti also decided to represent Julie Swetnick, one of the women who accused Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of being part of a gang rape ring in high school. The story was trash, uncorroborated, and seen as a gross overreach, one that possibly played a part in Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) voting for Kavanaugh’s confirmation. She was on the fence throughout the vetting process.

Well, being late on child support, accused of domestic violence, and not paying your office rent doesn’t provide the best foundation for a national run. “Basta!” was his war cry against the Trump White House. And now, we have new charges: he’s been accused of trying to extort $15-25 million from Nike. To make this even sweeter (and awkward) he tweeted this about an hour prior to his extortion charge:
