Earlier today, Donald Trump and his team received news that would have made all of them giddy with joy if they weren’t so worried about their own crimes and lawsuits.
This afternoon, one of the men that Trump fears the most – Stormy Daniels attorney Michael Avenatti – was arrested for “suspicion of domestic violence.” While the details of how this happened are not clear, it has been confirmed by the Los Angeles Police Department that Avenatti was in fact arrested. The police department said:
“We can confirm that today LAPD Detectives arrested Michael Avenatti on suspicion of domestic violence. This is an ongoing investigation and we will provide more details as they become available.”

TMZ had reported that Avenatti had been arrested after his “estranged wife” filed a domestic violence report, however Lisa Storie-Avenatti’s own lawyers have stated that she was “not subject to any such incident” and she had “never known Michael to be physically violent toward anyone.”
While the details are fuzzy, the Trumps wasted no time celebrating. Trump’s most annoying child, Donald Trump Jr., could hardly contain his excitement on Twitter and happily linked to the TMZ article:

Details are still emerging, but Avenatti has further responded to the allegations against him:
I have never been physically abusive in my life nor was I last night. Any accusations to the contrary are fabricated and meant to do harm to my reputation. I look forward to being fully exonerated.”

It’s only a matter before Trump gives his own terrible response.
