Celebrity lawyer Michael Avenatti has figured out why he’s being prosecuted for allegedly extorting Nike and defrauding adult film star Stormy Daniels: the California and New York states’ attorneys are doing the bidding of a “vindictive” President Donald Trump.
In a series of filings and appearances before courts in both states, Avenatti’s lawyers claim that the outlandish attorney “made some very, very powerful enemies” when he tangled with Trump over an alleged affair — and subsequent “hush” agreement — with Daniels, and when he attacked Trump adviser and personal counsel, Michael Cohen.
