        The same people here who castigated Obama for bowing to a king, have nothing to say when Red Don curtsies before one, nor when his incompetent son in law conducts his own rogue foreign policy with a brutal, dictatorial regime, basically giving them carte Blanche to do what they want in the region, as long as that regime keeps funneling money into their pockets.
        What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

          I know next to nothing about the case, but does Avenatti really care that much about the ultimate outcome? I don't mean to say he is just seeking publicity for himself. If he can put trump through the process long enough and hang some stink on him, it appears he will feel he has accomplished much of what he set out to do.
          There's some question as to whether a NDA would fall outside California statute of Frauds, which could apply to an unsigned contract. But I think there are precedents in CA that would lead one to believe a NDA does fall outside that statute, so to me Stormy's case on that front looks pretty weak. Not only did she cash the check but she denied the affair to the press. She was following the agreement. Oddly, if she didn't cash the check, the question of the legality of the payment probably goes away, so we're pretty sure she did.

          I agree that Avenatti doesn't care if they lose the case. I think he demonstrated with Swetnick he doesn't care much about the client. Thing is, if they do lose, there's a good chance Daniels is ordered to pay Trump's legal fees, just like in the case the other day. I don't imagine Trump has a cheap legal team, either. Plus if the contract is good she may be open to the original penalties as she has proceeded, (presumably on the advice of counsel, although I don't doubt Avenatti has protected himself from liability somehow) to break the NDA and the restraining order quite often. Maybe Avenatti has something strong up his sleeve other than bluster, but if he doesn't, Daniels could very well get screwed. (again!)

            Even statutes of fraud can be overcome sometimes without a writing, when there is strong evidence of performance. Of course, all that is jurisdiction specific.

            I think Avenatti probably cares about his clients. Plaintiffs trial lawyers (the ones who don't shrink from trying big cases) are often type A gunners, though, and regularly behave like he has been. Not all--the best ones are just smart, organized, and tireless preparers. The smart part often means they hire excellent associates and staff and use them wisely. Mueller comes to mind, though if he were not working for the government, he'd probably be a defense counsel. Not one you'd want to face unprepared.

                I agree it could be overcome either way. That's why I say it doesn't look that great for Stormy so far.

                I get that plaintiff lawyers often say ridiculous and outrageous things on behalf of their clients. But when I consider the risks he's put his clients at, I'm not sure it leads me to believe he has their best interests at heart. I'll skip what I think he did wrong with Swenick, but with Daniels, she had $130k in her pocket but had to keep her mouth shut. Not great, but not out on the street either. Avenatti told her she didn't have to honor the NDA and in fact he himself broke her agreement in the first paragraph of the suit he filed to invalidate the NDA. If he's wrong, and as we have been suggesting he very well could be, she is in big trouble, Avenatti's not. In fact he's famous and running for President. Doesn't seem entirely on the up and up from that point of view.

                But maybe he's just a misunderstood guy with a heart of gold under that $3000 suit.

                    Rush and Hannity. Watching this might be the most amazing things I have ever seen.

                    I can't even list what they said here because it is so amazing it has to be listened to in it's entirety.

                            Its good to see Rush moderate. Actually...

                            This is the same Rush creating enemies out of the American left starting 30 years ago and Fox picking up the baton 10 yrs later which resulted in a fear-charged conservative base. The resulting GOP party has becoming a tool of tribal partisanship meaning it is wholly incompetent at governing and incapable of compromise.

                            So, no. No change.
