Smirking, racist, adulterous former O'Reilly Fox toad versus Avenatti. WHO YOU GOT, DAMMIT?



After spending the last few weeks complaining about how much air time Stormy Daniels gets, host Jesse Watters decided to get more aggressive and take some shots at her very sharp attorney.

Watters found business records which showed Avenatti owed money for several businesses. He decided to take a very bold tact, and accuse the lawyer of being broke and desperate—potentially defamatory statements.

“So the guy’s broke, so I think this may explain this crusade he’s on—he’s trying to get out of this financial hole, looking for publicity and money,” Watters said.

Watters later described Avenatti as “a fraud” citing the fact that the lawyer was involved in lawsuits.

If Watters has defamed Avenatti by calling him a fraud and alleging dirty business dealings it would be bad news for the host, who is facing a divorce after he cheated on his wife with a 25-year-old junior employee.

cut of that.

Aside from that, IF he's so bad, how come he is beating Trump, his bozo lawyers and bozo Fox News out the gate ?

4. Watters has always been a joke. You mean business owners may have lines of credit?

What's next, people don't pay for houses in cash!?
Lawyers involved in lawsuits?

🤔🤪😳

His GOTCHA videos on The O'Reilly show were horrible. He took footage and spliced in movie references and sound bites and the pieces still didn't get to the point he was making.

He just happened to be standing there when BillO went down in flames.

1. All lawyers get paid somehow
2. How do Avenatti's personal or business finances give the lie to anything he's uncovered?
3. Again, so what?

I don't care if he worships Satan and drives a humvee.
