Mueller to keep stealthy and prosecute.

Avenatti to be on our side from a public perception standpoint.

so many people with huge egos are NOT competent or talented.

I have this strange love/hate relationship with Avenatti myself. Actually, not hate at all, more like fear. I'm afraid he and his ego will go too far and ruin everything for himself. But so far he just steps right up to that line and doesn't seem to cross it. So more power to him!

to be a spokesperson for a large group of us, it makes me think that just a slight twist of the screwdriver can make this all turn out not as we might want.

He's a talented, effective spokesman who is easy on the eyes and a real thorn in the side of Trumpville. He'd be a great political talent if he so desired. Rarely stumbles, speaks clearly and logically. Compare him to Ghouliani the sputtering has-been. Speaking of has been, so far Avenatti has been pretty right on with his predictions (as he's often too fond of pointing out) and one awaits his next move with delightful anticipation and hope for something truly damaging to the Trump brand.
