But I'm not supporting him for president* Let the Republicans nominate dilettantes.
*in a Democratic primary of course. I will support our ticket regardless of who is on it.

Don't be surprised if Avenatti jumps in and actually does okay.
Having said that, the intersection among that large percent of American voters who are simple-minded and Democrats is relatively small. Avenatti might make it interesting, but unless he is convincing enough on the issues and policy, it ain't gonna happen imo.
