- Attorney Michael Avenatti fired a warning shot in response to President Donald Trump’s tweets in which he called Avenatti’s client, adult-film actress Stormy Daniels, “Horseface.”
- “I’m a father to two daughters … how do you tell your kids to look up to the president of the United States when he behaves in this manner?,” Avenatti said. “It’s an absolute joke.”
- Avenatti, who has hinted at a 2020 presidential run, also took a jab at what he believed to be “wishy-washy” tactics some Democratic lawmakers have used to counter Trump.
- “There’s only one way to deal with a bully … and that is when they punch you, you hit them back twice as hard,” Avenatti said. “He better pack a lunch.”
