Micheal Avenatti is getting to be a bit too much:

The results confirm what I have been advocating. Those Dems that preach “puppies and daisies” are losing and the fighters are winning. There is only one path to success in 2020, and it’s not turning the other cheek. When they go low, we hit harder. #FireWithFire #BuckleUp





Apparently he is talking about candidates like Beto:







Someone, like another someone, seems to be a little thin skinned.

But if he's going to start turning on Democrats then see ya... Beto is not fighter? That's the fight he decides to pick the day after the election?

when he apparently forgot that as an attorney he has a duty to the client he represents that takes precedence over any other interests, including (and especially) his own political ambitions.

But I think it comes down to state by state and he does not seem to recognize that. A Lucy McBeth wins in Georgia with calmness and thoughtfulness. An Abigail Spanberger in Virginia wins with an aggressive closing argument in a debate and a firm televised confronting of an attempted ratfucker in her headquarters. I think that Project Veritas pushback from Spanberger's campaign manager, polite but firm, put Abigail over the top last night.

He overplayed his hand in even announcing a run. His subsequent series of comments have only cemented my distrust.
