Looks likes Avanatti's client is being wholly ignored by GOP.

[Ninga]

So, what next?

[malaise]

1. Didn't the same folks ignore Stormy

Until.

[rzemanfl]

2. Did you mean "Stormy?"

[malaise]

6. LOL

Thanks.
The Con smoked my brains with that press conference.

[rzemanfl]

11. My TV barely survived.

How is it that a raving madman can be on TV for 81 minutes and life goes on as usual? I used to get saner people than him committed for observation.

[malaise]

14. They can't even be bothered to fact check that exercise

in lunacy. It is now a reality Tv circus as opposed to government. This is really the twilight zone.

[Ninga]

15. Yes, they did. But that was a different time. Avanatti was able to command attention for his

client, Stormey because there wasn't any other such story at the time.

So if his client is being ignored, isn't that it's own story?

[irresistable]

3. If Dr. Ford comes across as credible, the Republican house of cards collapses.

[rzemanfl]

4. They already have a "credible, but mistaken" line to spout.

Fucking liars.

[irresistable]

7. no one will believe that she is mistaken if she is credible.

[rzemanfl]

12. Republicans ignore logic and believe what they are fed. n/t

[irresistable]

13. A sufficient number of Republican members of the Senate will be convinced.

[NewJeffCT]

17. Democrats just need 2

I think if only one Republican defects, Pence would break a 50-50 tie, no?

[Amishman]

5. Yup, it's all about Dr. Ford for both sides

Dr. Ford is the original and most believable. R's are focusing on her to undermine her, we are focusing on her as she is our best hope of stopping this

Avanatti's client has the baggage of her debt problem and the restraining order against her. Makes her easier to attack if made the focus.

[irresistable]

9. she will prevail...testifying is so much easier when you can just tell the truth.

[superpatriotman]

8. Worse

Both of my regional newspapers have her on the cover, but only reporting on a restraining order an -ex boyfriend took out on her.

She is being smeared as un trustworthy.

[irresistable]

10. why are you posting something that is not true?

[Fla Dem]

16. Are you misunderstanding the post?

The poster is reporting what is in their regional papers. That's true.

They add the comment that "she is being smeared as untrustworthy." Opinions that what they are reporting is smearing Dr. Ford.

Or are you saying it's untrue they are smearing Dr. Ford?

[irresistable]

18. The story in question is not about Dr. Ford.

[Johonny]

19. I hope she sues him. I'd love a special council to look into Brett.

It would sort of make his career come full circle jerk.
