Are you suggesting that Trump is using the DOJ for personal revenge against a vocal critic? It seems that you are and that you are okay with that.

Hardly. I imagine Trump is learning of it the same time as us.
But when you take a swing at the king and miss, you draw attention to yourself, and if you’re a crook like Avenatti you should keep your head down.
And, of course, there are always minions looking to gain the favor of the king by coming to his defense.

I won’t dispute your characterization of Avenatti and the advice you offer him – if you’re a crook you should keep your head down.
I think history will show that Trump should have followed similar advice since his life of corruption and crime is now getting massive attention that it otherwise would not have.

Manafort and Cohen both were non-descript shysters until they hooked up with the regime.
All presidents come under tremendous scrutiny.
Every word, golf game, past relationships, ne’er-do-wells known or not, relatives (Billy Carter…), finances, mistresses, politics as kid and older, parents, off-the-cuff remarks…you name it and it is in the spotlight.
I think Trump thought he could just out bluster all of them.
He can’t. No president could and he is not exempt.
Trump’s a golfer. He should know that the best golfers are the ones who manage the misses.

Best golfers . . .
Trump has no need to manage the misses. He pulls out his foot wedge or counts wrong.
