Stormy Daniels’ Lawyer: I’ll Run in 2020 If Trump Seeks Re-Election

Michael Avenatti, the attorney representing adult film star Stormy Daniels in her lawsuit against the president, says he will launch a White House bid in 2020 if President Trump runs for re-election. “IF (big) he seeks re-election, I will run, but only if I think that there is no other candidate in the race that has a REAL chance at beating him. We can't relive 2016. I love this country, our values and our people too much to sit by while they are destroyed,” Avenatti tweeted on Wednesday. His comments came in response to a question on whether he’d run to “displace” Trump. The president began his re-election efforts unusually early, having filed paperwork for his 2020 bid on the same day he was inaugurated.
