His 15 Minutes of Fame Ran Out 45 Minutes Ago
Michael Avenatti. Let’s just say I haven’t signed on to his presidential campaign yet. If I do, send somebody to my house with some medicine or something.
Anyway, Avenatti says he was just informed by the FBI that he was on the Magabomber’s list. You know, the list of 100 people he wanted to send bombs to. I think my Uncle Melvin is on that list. I feel sure that Thelma is because she wakes up every morning, smiles at the delight that God has added another day for her. She put on her leopard print housecoat and fluffy pink house house shoes, pulls back her ruffled curtains, opens her brightly scrubbed bedroom window, smiles at the birds and then screams, “Screw You, Trump, You Nastyass Sumbitch.”
That’s gotta piss somebody off.
By the way, Avenatti owes $2.4 million to the IRS. How do these guys get away with that? Thelma once forgot to mail her $200 tax bill and they came and got her 1987 travel trailer.
Thanks to Brian for the heads up.
Lots of big shot trial attorneys end up like that. Melvin Belli, for one.
1I keep hearing that Avenatti is the left’s version of trump (those saying it are his fans). We don’t need another version of trump, of any political leaning. I am all trumped out – we need to discard the one we already have.
2Avenatti’s going to be real disappointed when the next president doesn’t make him attorney general.
3Here in Colorado – especially the Denver area we have a legal beagle who advertises every day just before the National news comes on. He was caught driving drunk.
4Aven who? Someone completely forgettable.
5And Thelma reminds me that the neighbors must have gotten used to my picking up the Post on the stoop every morning, looking at it, and screaming… well, mama would still get after me if I said what, but it’s along Thelma’s lines.
6Avenatti’s 15 minutes of fame are up.
7Yeah, I enjoyed him for awhile, but he is definitely past his sell by date.
8Both Avenatti and Trump bring to mind an old cartoon where the protagonist needs to make an escape by running through a gauntlet of opened mouthed crocodiles. He lightly touches down on each gapping jaw and then jumps to the next one before the jaw slams shut behind him.
9Avenatti’s thinly veiled aspiration to run for president revealed his delusions of grandeur, much like the current pretender to the throne.
10To be sure, I was not particularly an Avanatti fan, but he is still better than Kanye, for whom even one minute of fame is too much.
11I agree, Avenatti really isn’t presidential material.
But he’s a smart and competent lawyer. And light years ahead of Trump in intellect. Which is admittedly a lot easier than it sounds.
He just got caught up in all the publicity, I think. Once the attention dies down, I hope he has the sense to realize he’s already doing what he does best, and drops his political aspirations.
12Linda Phipps –
13I’m not a follower of Kanye, so I don’t know about his usual behavior. But based on that surreal Oval Office event, and the legendary incident with Taylor Swift, I’m pretty sure the guy’s bipolar, and in dire need of medication. He has since recanted for the thing with Trump, BTW.
Colorado Larry, you mean the esq who jimped out of his car, ran across a lawn and was strong armed to the ground by an Arapahoe Deputy?
