Michael Avenatti, also known as “Creepy porn lawyer”, held a press conference on Thursday, to which nobody seemed to care.
During his press conference, Avenatti demanded a very specific “litmus test” for the 2020 Democratic presidential hopefuls: Would they be willing to indict Donald Trump and members of his 2016 campaign team if elected president?
Avenatti said Thursday at a press conference that members of Trump’s 2016 campaign, including former campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, former campaign press secretary Hope Hicks, Trump’s son Donald Jr. — as well as AMI CEO David Pecker and Chief Content Officer Dylan Howard — engaged in “criminal conduct at the highest level” in the “stealing of a presidential election.” The lawyer said they should all be indicted for their role in an alleged cover-up, as reported by Fox News.
Avenatti’s statements come after a federal judge in New York on Thursday ordered that FBI search warrant documents related to the 2018 raid against Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen be unsealed. That move signaled the end of the investigation into alleged hush-money payments to Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal — money allegedly doled out to buy their silence about sexual relationships with Trump prior to the 2016 elections, per Fox News.
“Donald Trump and his cohorts who engaged in this outright criminal conspiracy must be charged criminally,” Avenatti said at the news conference.
However, it seems nobody cares what Avenatti has to say anymore, as his press conference was empty. At the podium, he spoke from, there were just three microphones. Two appeared to be a standard microphone for the podium, the other was from “fake news” CNN. (Continued Below)
The evidence was captured on video of an empty room, empty seats, and no reporters available to ask questions.
A video began circulating on Twitter of Avenatti ending his press conference, made by the Twitter user “mad-liberals”, with music in the background playing, “All by myself” written by Eric Carmen.
Avenatti sadly walked to a chair afterward where he had set his briefcase aside. He then put his papers he was holding into the briefcase and proceeded to leave the room. But before exiting the door, he looked back to an empty room. (Continued Below)

Hey Creepy Porn Lawyer, appreciate you flagging this.
By the way, really enjoyed meeting your ex wife at my speech last night. It was a packed house unlike your presser. #basta #EnjoyPrison https://t.co/jcg2bTX3et pic.twitter.com/qnxHvVa4j3

Carpe Donktum also made a video and wrote, “Today was a busy day… but we must move on… It’s just no good anymore since you went away Avenatti”.
This one is funny too:
