Mike “TeeVee” Avenatti had a brilliant new idea to keep his face in front of cable news watchers earlier this week when he proposed a public “discussion” between himself and Pres. Trump’s newest attorney, Rudy Giuliani about the Stormy Daniels-Michael Cohen situation.

I think it would be very helpful for the public to witness a discussion between Mr. Giuliani and me concerning the facts of the case, etc. I am willing to participate on any network provided both sides are provided a fair shake. I am also willing to do it on 12-hrs notice.

Avenatti tweeted: “I think it would be very helpful for the public to witness a discussion between Mr. Giuliani and me concerning the facts of the case, etc. I am willing to participate on any network provided both sides are provided a fair shake. I am also willing to do it on 12-hrs notice.”

Because he’s a totally serious lawyer and that’s what totally serious lawyers do: Discuss cases — or non-cases, as it were — that have yet to be settled in or out of court.

Giuliani, no camera-shy wallflower himself, shot back at Avenatti by calling him Stormy Daniels’ pimp when asked about the possibility of a televised debate.

Giuliani said he wouldn’t debate Avenatti because the lawyer is “pimping for money.”

“I don’t get involved with pimps,” he said of the lawyer. “The media loves to give him room because he makes these roundabout charges and they turn out to mean nothing. I think he’s going to get himself in serious trouble.”

So, I guess that’s a no.

Everyone still watching the “S”-show that is cable news can all thank our lucky stars we won’t be subjected to this.
