Lawyer Michael Avenatti on Wednesday hit back at President Trump after the president accused him of making “false accusations” against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
“‘False accusations?'” Avenatti tweeted in response to Trump’s remarks earlier in the day. “Like those crimes your fixer [Michael] Cohen pled to? You are an habitual liar and complete narcissist who also is a disgrace as a president and an embarrassment to our nation.”
Avenatti is a third rate lawyer who is good at making false accusations, like he did on me and like he is now doing on Judge Brett Kavanaugh. He is just looking for attention and doesn’t want people to look at his past record and relationships – a total low-life!

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Avenatti’s client, Julie Swetnick, went public on Wednesday with explosive accusations against Kavanaugh, claiming he was present when she was drugged and raped by a group of men at a high school party in the early 1980s.- READ MORE
