Discussion: Avenatti Now Represents 3 More Women Paid 'Hush Money' For Trump Relationships

Given Avenattiā€™s penchant for maximizing publicity opportunities, there has to be a reason why he wonā€™t disclose any additional names. And the most likely reason is that the NDAs are still in effect, because no one has reported on them (Stormy Danielsā€™ NDA was reported on by the WSJ before she filed her lawsuit asking that it be voided.)

But it does signal to SDNY that they have more witnesses to any potential violation of FEC laws, so while they have NDAā€™s, they will be pierced by the Feds to investigate potential crimes.

NDAs are, as you point out, probably behind it. But even if not, Avenatti is proving to be almost as gifted at the ā€œstay tunedā€ strategy that Spankee likes to use. While I sometimes get tired of his game, I must admit that I greatly appreciate the fact that he intentionally leaves Spankee (and others) twisting in the wind, not knowing how bad the next surprise will beā€¦

And by not telling which clients he has, he leaves room for the trump team to make unforced errors. Bet the disclosure ends up coming from guiliani or cohen.

I have to admit to having some Avenatti fatigue once in awhile. But this is nice. And it gives him new opportunity to get under that orange skin a little more and cause a little more irritation.

Yup. In the name of ā€œgetting out ahead of itā€, Ghouliani is gonna blab his fat head off. And he always lets more info out of the bag because heā€™s so puffed up with self-importance and being in the center of things.

If Spankee were a half-way normal sentient being, he wouldnā€™t let that big mouth anywhere near his defense. But the big mouth in the Oval Office loves him another big mouth ā€“ birds of a feather and all that.

Giuliani: ā€œAri, I can tell you for a fact that Avenatti is lying.ā€
ā€œWhy? Because I talked to all of these womanā€”and there are more than 3, believe meā€”and none of them are represented by Avenatti. That guy is such a liar, you shouldnā€™t allow him on TV!ā€

Anyone want to make a bet against something like this from Rudy?:slight_smile:

Letā€™s remember that if not for Avenatti and Stormy, we wouldnā€™t have Cohen. I believe he is as focused and thorough as Mueller in some ways but is playing on a different stage.

I read another version of this story on my Phone News this AM, perhaps from Business Insider, that included the information that at least one of Avenatiā€™s new clients, was made pregnant by Donald Trump and may have been paid not just for her silence but also to have an abortion.

And no matter what, the Segregationist Fake Christian Evangelicals represented by self appointed Amurican Pharisees and Master Grifters Ralph Reed, Jerry Falwell Jr and Franklin Graham, will continue to encant that Donald Trump has their support and must be supported unconditionally by their cash cow of pseudo religious FOX Propaganda consuming followersā€¦

Avenattiā€™s strategy becomes clearer. Heā€™s looking for more clients.

Given Donnieā€™s personal history, the universe of potential ones must be in the hundreds.

Thatā€™s so pitch perfect, I wouldnā€™t bet a penny against this coming out of Ghoulianiā€™s mouth.

Bear in mind that heā€™s also attending a political event in Iowa shortly.

Also, I can see him saying. ā€œThere was no abortion. I know this because Trump doesnā€™t believe in abortions. Therefore, if thereā€™s no child, the woman is lying. ā€˜Where is the bodyā€™ is what lawyers sayā€”in Latin, but thatā€™s what it means. Trump never paid for an abortion of a pregnant girlfriendā€”if there is one, and I havenā€™t discussed that particular question with Trump. Whatā€™s important is that the woman are all liars, and so is Avenatti.ā€

And so many women in their 40ā€™s would be after me for datesā€”if I believe Page 6, anyway.

Asked if he had evidence that the women had relationships with Trump, Avenatti said: ā€œYes.ā€

Let me guessā€¦there are tapes.
