For my money, Stormy Daniels is an American hero. For my money, Stormy has more credibility, authenticity and cajones than James Comey. Plus, whenever Stormy is around, her deliciously hot lawyer is around too – Michael Avenatti is my latest Forever Bae. LOVE HIM. Anyway, Stormy appeared on The View yesterday with Avenatti, and they ended up revealing the sketch of the man who approached Stormy in a Las Vegas parking lot in 2011 and threatened her to keep quiet about Donald Trump. Here’s the segment:
Here’s the sketch:
As the women of The View pointed out, this is a sketch of a handsome guy. Stormy even says that before he threatened her, she saw him and thought he was attractive. Many people immediately thought the sketch looked like MAGA-hat-owner and Trump supporter Tom Brady:
Or perhaps Dexter/Michael C. Hall (circa 2011):
But I kind of think the sketch looks like a younger Anthony Scaramucci?
In any case, if you have information about a mobbed-up Tom Brady look-alike who took a mysterious trip to Las Vegas in 2011, please contact the authorities or Michael Avenatti.
Oh, and Donald Trump chimed in, so you know it really f–king happened. #TeamStormy
A sketch years later about a nonexistent man. A total con job, playing the Fake News Media for Fools (but they know it)! https://t.co/9Is7mHBFda

Tom Brady? Is that you?
It’s Chris Pratt.
Jon Bon Jovi back in the day
They were trying to discredit her and say she was describing her ex-husband. Just that fact that Dump chimed in makes me KNOW it’s true. #TEAMSTORMY
Seriously -he is the living embodiment of Lady MacBeth’s protests.
That young pic looks like dexter dude
That’s who he resembles most to me. I don’t see Tom Brady at all. But Twitter was good for a lot of laughs about this yesterday.
Trump being triggered by stormy’s sketch just proves that not only is Trump guilty of everything stormy is saying But he also Really can’t keep his mouth shut. Why is he saying anything about her? He should be silent. Why is no lawyer giving him that advice? Oh that’s right he only hires lawyers with three clients.
Lawyers who care as little about the law as he does
Minor correction: “Lawyers” with three “clients.”
And yeah, it’s depressing that this is what our imbecile POTUS chooses to prioritize.
He seems too have trouble finding an attorney to represent him. The President of the United States is having trouble finding an attorney to represent him.
Most past presidents have had crushing schedules and had to work hard to get in time with their families.
This dolt has time to watch TV all day and comment on this nonsense?
It’s infuriating, but at the same time I’m glad he’s doing nothing, as it may limit the amount of damage he does.
Every reporter on CNN was giggling like crazy at Stormy’s sketch yesterday. They were calling it a publicity stunt and of course the women on Morning Joe have been so disappointing in acting like talking about a Pornstar is beneath them. They keep underestimating Stormy and her lawyer. This pornstar has got the POTUS in a choke hold and her lawyer is playing a masterful game of 3D chess. They are no joke.
I watched her interview on The View. She’s not ashamed to be a porn star, and had no problem standing up to the hosts including Megan McCain.
I personally think Mika kinda has a crush on Stormy’s lawyer, which is probably why Joe laid into him lol. But, yeah, I love MJ but Mika can be OTT.
On CNN right now (4:30 pm PST) they’re putting it on a “Breaking News” that Dump is “increasingly “calling the shots” and ignoring his legal team.” Maybe this brilliance will lead to his demise! 🤞🏻. I hope he IS feeling cornered like the rat he is!
I just finished listening to this week’s Pod Save America and yeah, a reporter is saying the court room drama in New York is what is the biggest danger to Drump, Ivanka and Jr.-yes even Ivanka, she’s up to her eyeballs in shady business deals. They think congress is just not going to have the balls to impeach him-not even Democrats.

Twitter is suggesting the guy is Trump’s director of Surveillance, Matthew Calamari, Jr. Google him – there are photos and articles describing his SOP which fits. I can kind of see a resemblance to the sketch, but Jr is a tall, beefy Itallian. I personally don’t think it’s him.
Wow, I just looked at a photo of him from 2011 and the similarity really is strong…he has the same kind of jawline and the features are all pretty similar, just a bit softer in Matthew and a bit more chiseled in the drawing.
I really can’t believe she has such good recall….but some people are really good at remembering faces. (I am really bad…my dad and I had to do one of those sketches once with the police and they pretty much gave up in frustration, because dad and I argued over the most basic features!!)
I suppose it is possible that she and the lawyer worked out who had made the threat and then she just made the portrait look like him. ??
There’s definitely something fishy about him
(very sorry)
He definitely looks like a tentacle of the mob.
Thank you! I burst out laughing in my office upon seeing his name! Because what this whole debacle needed was a guy with the name of seafood
LOL glad i’m not the only one that immediately went to the seafood…
I can’t stop laughong, my dog came in to check on me.
We have to look at photos taken at the time she was threatened, not recent ones.
Subtract thirty pounds and seven years of harassing people and I bet that sketch is spot on.
It is Gary Johnston from Team America! Google him and see
https://shortcut-test2.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/role/attachment/49397/default_62.png
Bwahaha!! Love it!
I wasn’t ready for that or Tom Brady! LOL!
Well, at least the idea of Donald Trump watching “The View” gave me a giggle, even if it was a sad one. Here’s hoping they find Tiny “Tom,” who, according to the note on the sketch, is between 5’4″ and 5’6″, eliminating Brady from contentiont….
I’m reading that notation as 5’9 to 6’.
It’s definitely 5’9″ to 6′.
I see it now – good thing I’m getting new glasses – clearly I need them! (Still, Brady is taller than that, no?)
Forensic artistry is so fascinating to me! The way they blend artistry and science… 3d facial reconstruction is probably my favorite, but healthy props to portrait artists. How they translate a witnesses recall through a filter of psychology for a high level of accuracy blows my mind. ….off to look for a good documentary/series about forensic arts…
Just came back to add – Google “Lois Gibson Accuracy” and look at the images. Some of them are uncanny!
Or if you want a giggle, Google ‘bad police sketches’
OMG I love those. It’s like the regular artist was out sick that day, so they called in Todd from traffic control to do the sketches.
The good ones are amazing, and it’s quite a talent. I have terrible facial recognition though, so I’d never be able remember enough details to describe someone accurately.
Could 45 be so upset over the FBI raiding Michael Cohen’s office and taking files,computers etc because the identity of this mysterious man is somewhere in the items the FBI seized?
That’s a good thought but I’m guessing there’s a lot of other stuff that Bigly doesn’t want revealed. Funny that they thought a judge would let them sort through it, lol.
“Mind if we take a look? Oh, that’s…not a shredder, don’t worry.”
I don’t know who that handsome guy is, but I believe her that someone threatened her. I also believe Michael Cohen, the fixer, sent someone the scare the ##$#$ out of her, that’s how the mob works and the dotard crime family is in the mob, jmo.
Totally – look at that last still of her… if that isn’t fear (and looking close to crying), IDK what it is.
Example videos are easily googled.
Avenatti recently upped the reward to $131,000 for leading to the whereabouts of this person.
Shade supreme, Mr Avenatti! So naughty Michael Avenatti.
Hahaha..that hilarious.
Adam Davidson suggested Avenatti increase it to $130,000 so Avenatti responded and upped the ante. BTW Adam Davidson wrote this piece for The New Yorker (https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/michael-cohen-and-the-end-stage-of-the-trump-presidency) that a lot of people (on Twitter) are going back and forth on. Some agree it’s the end for trump, others acknowledge that it’s bad, but that it’s not the END end yet.
I have such an appreciation for Stormy and Avenatti, especially since listening to the “Opening Arguments” podcast (#154 for anyone who wants to listen) where they broke down this case and predicted how bad it would be for trump and Cohen. The moment trump answered the journalist on the plane and said that he wasn’t aware of the payments to Stormy and implied it was all Cohen, I knew it was over for Cohen. It’s so funny because so many in the media have acted like trump has a deep level of understanding or a plan, when he is just flying by the seat of his pants – and Stormy and her lawyer are weaving an intricate web and have laid a trap he stumbled into with nary a push.
Adam Davidson was on Pod Save America yesterday and he makes it very clear that he’s NOT saying that this is officially the end of Trump’s presidency. He’s simply saying that as a reporter who has covered Washington for years, that he has a unique perspective in terms of recognizing a massive shift in the public perception of a presidency.
Kitten, how is Pod Save America? I hear such differing opinions on it, is it worth checking out?
Darla, I’ve been listening to them since before the election when they were called Keeping it 1600. They offer a somewhat unique perspective because most of the group worked in the White House for Obama and know how things work. Also very funny which god knows we need right now. Criticisms may be that they’re all guys and can get a little “bro” at times. They’re trying to expand their viewpoints with other podcasts but I just don’t have time to listen to every podcast plus keep up with my books on Audibles. I saw them all in person last winter in Santa Barbara. They have Erin Ryan on occasionally and that helps. Side note: the Circus on SHO has become much more watchable with the removal of Mark Halperin and the addition of Alex Wagner.
Thanks Anne! Those were the criticisms I’ve heard. I want to start listening to some Podcasts.
Adam Davidson was pretty good to listen to. I was particularly interested in his take on Ivanka and Don Jr and their involvement with Cohen and the family “business”
I agree he was clear about his take on it, beyond what the headline says. I hope he’s right.
PSA is pretty good, I agree it’s a little bro-y, but they have some good guests on, and I appreciate their insight having worked in the Obama admin.
I really like Pod Save America, but sometimes I feel they go on with their “humor” tirades a little too long. I listen for their perspectives as having worked in a White House. They don’t need to fluff it up with comedy to make me listen. I tend to like Pod Save the World a little more because the host is more information focused.
if it weren’t for the GOP congress being so derelict in their duties to the point they’re OK with someone committing treason as long as it’s a republican, it would be the end for Trump. Sadly, I think Trump could beat a child on live TV and they’d find a way to excuse him
Love it- his professionalism is unimpeachable (😂).
She got one best forensic sketch artists in the game. And apparently, forensic sketch artists can tell if you are lying by the way you describe your accuser – people have a hard time making up/describing fake faces. So, based on that alone, it’s pretty clear Stormy is telling the truth.
I mean he could be a time traveller who had to stop her because if Dotard didn’t become President because of her, Mueller and NY wouldn’t have a chance to bring his family and associates down lol.
Mr Avenatti is dragging Emperor Zero’s ass on Twitter right now. JFC Avenatti is a gem!
Bloop!
Avenatti is amazing. I can’t wait for Trump and Cohen to be thrown in jail, but I don’t want to stop seeing Avenatti every day
He and his team are clearly master class, versus the legal klutzes they’ve been facing. Yet he knows this is a marathon, not a dash.
For those of you who are enjoying Michael Avenatti opening up Emperor Zero like a fresh fish:
Michael Avenatti Guts Asshat
#MAGA
i thought he looked like a very young Willem Defoe to me:
https://cbsnews3.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2018/02/18/95fb30bc-7013-46d7-a5d7-162ee7fcb714/resize/620×465/0987c8fafb295b6e951331e4489fefec/willem-dafoe-undated-head-shot-465.jpg
I think Willey Defoe as well! Those chiseled cheek bones. Also, scary AF.
Dexter would never threaten a baby. Trumpworld, oh yeah, they would.
Micheal calamari Jr.
You are correct! Doesn’t this look exactly like him?
https://crooksandliars.com/2018/04/guy-thug-who-threatened-stormy-daniels
Totally! It’s uncanny
I like this guess…..
Stormy and her lawyer are the perfect pair to take on Trump. They both seem fearless but truthful.
Trump might have been treading cautiously about Stormy up to now not only because he knows she is telling the truth but also because he remembers that she was tough and not easily intimidated.
Well google Glendon Crain, who is supposedly Stormys ex husband. Sketch looks a lot like him too.
And don’t anyone generalize from this anything about my feelings on the matter……I can’t abide Trump, this whole mess is amusing, but I’m not a fan of hers either other than giving her mad respect for hiring such a good lawyer 😎👍🏼
But the sketch seriously does look like her ex husband just as much as it looks like Tom Brady. Check it out.
Having seen several of the side by sides floating around, any of them bear some resemblance.
It’s amazing how the eye will pick up any type of mirroring when looking at those images, even if it’s a joke (such as one of the Fredo sons).
The brow line is wrong. Her ex has a really atypical brow line.
I have no doubt in my mind that Michael Avenatti knows exactly who the guy is BEFORE he released the sketch. This man is setting a trap for Cohen and trump to step into. trump has no self control. He is going to tweet about it and shoot himself in the foot.
Absolutely. I don’t think they’d put it out there if they didn’t know. It seems like a warning to Dump.
Orange already took the bait and tweeted. It shouldn’t be so easy but with this nitwit group it is.
ITA. He is going to let the media do the investigation for him and watch them trip up Trump.
Trump keeps falling for their traps. He’s such a moron.
I love the email address idthethug@gail.com.
It’s Rob Lowe!!!!!!
I saw meme yesterday that showed the face morphing into Sean Hannity. It was pretty funny.
She is NOT a “hero”. She’s a cheap slut who slept with a nasty man who cheated on his wife. She needs to concentrate on raising her daughter – hopefully with the moral that decent women do not sleep with married men!
As for the POTUS, he is a disgusting pig – but is also not the first president to screw around on his wife.
Laura she is that much more of a hero because she knew from day one that she would have to stand up to the most powerful man in the world and subject herself to insults from people like you.
Wow.
Just, wow.
@Laura: Why not stop at: “As for the POTUS, he’s a disgusting pig”. Remember, she did not hold a gun to his head to get him to bunk her. Also, he was the one who had a wife. IMO, he’s really the disgusting one of the two, jmo.
Even if she were everything you say, she’s still a human being with rights and has got the guts to take Drumpf down. This is certainly not a case of decency; it’s a case of right and wrong and criminal acts. Now back to your fascist misogynistic evangelical cave.
Is this Laura Ingraham?
Maybe it’s Dr. Laura!
If she is the one who finally kneecaps the Trump mess, she is an American hero.
There is plenty to shade her on…..I agree she’s not a hero. As unpopular as it is on here, I likely do carry judgement about her choice of career ……about her having sex with him so she maybe would get a job……signing a NDA and then reneging…..etc etc.
BUT…..and this is a big but…..
Sometimes the ends justify the means. I’m likely down for any non-violent action that (metaphorically) wounds Trump.
So yeah…..I’m holding my nose at the stench of it all and I’m laughing my ass off at how it’s playing out.
“signing a NDA and then reneging…..etc etc. ”
Just to be clear- this all came about because she was *threatened/felt coerced*. And it looks like she may not be the only one.
Hhhmmmmm……..Im not going to be popular with this, but I am not going to lie here. That might be true, but i do hold some doubts. It took quite a while for THAT to come out, while she spent months being interviewed and smirking and acting coy and and and. If that had come out sooner than it did…..when she first started being coy about the whole thing……and not months later when the tough questions came and her high powered attorney signed on…..then I’d be more open to it being true than I am at this particular juncture.
Let’s just say I believe her about most things, but I’m not convinced on this one yet.
Sluts can be hero’s.
(I don’t think she’s a slut. Slut is an outdated slur used to keep women “in their proper place”. And for a woman to use it against another woman says more about the user)
@Laura: There are gender neutral ways to criticize people for having/participating in affairs that don’t involve sexist hate speech. Be a bigly girl and use them, please… unless you actually want to be mistaken for a Deplorable. If Stormi Daniels had been a male in this position instead of a female, would you the affair as an excuse to throw around OTHER slurs?
@NotTodaySatan: Your judgment about her choice in career doesn’t exist in a vacuum- and it can’t even honestly be called the unpopular opinion when sex workers are a marginalized group. This wouldn’t be the first time some shadiness around a story about Trump resulted in people being pressured to keep their mouths shut, so it’s not hard to believe her on that.
Laura,
Your hat is too tight. It is making you irritable.
” he is a disgusting pig – but” I didn’t have to read any further to know you were going to diminish and minimize his actions while calling her the most vile of names. S’matter for you?
There was a photo of one of Orange a$$’ security people who looked similar to the sketch. That was floated around Twitter last night.
Really Orange’s attys can’t control him? He has to comment on this? However Avenatti thanked him for the comments and said it was Xmas and Hanukkuh rolled up into one.
I just read a comment on daily Mail saying, I can’t believe the POTUS is in a twitter war with a prostitute. The Republicans must be so proud of their Dotard.
She’s not a prostitute. She was a porn actress. Not the same thing.
KiddV, that’s what I read. This is a disgrace to have a president who cannot stay off Twitter while his administration is crashing down. Why don’t he talk about why he kneecapped Nikki Haley over the Russian sanction.
I realized you weren’t the one saying it after I had clicked off, I came back in to correct but was too late. Sorry about that!
The press just keeps failing us. Just like with Kelly and Hope Hicks, for the last couple of days, the press has been depicting Nikki Haley as a hero. Nikki H has no clue what she is doing(many have criticized her handling of Iran) and just like everyone else in that WH, she has been extremely complicit. It was Nikki H who offered “proof”(a press briefing with a missile on the staged)that Iran wasn’t complying with the terms of the agreement when the Dotard tweeted that he wasn’t going to renew the deal because Iran had violated the terms of the agreement. It was Nikki H who ran to the Dotard’s defense after it was revealed that he gave classified information to the Russians when they visited the WH. Every time the Dotard does something stupid, Nikki H always comes to his defense. So it’s crazy that the press is now depicting her as presidential material and level headed. It’s ridiculous how the press keeps falling for the positive stories that the WH staff keep leaking about themsleves. The Dotard and WH threw Nikki H under the bus(the Dotard had to answer to Putin about the sanctions), just because she “stood up to the WH” it doesn’t make her hero. She should have stood up when the Dotard leaked classified information to the Russians.
Did you notice how just about every reporter who the Dotard and WH leaks to(Robert Costa, Maggie H, Ashley P, Philip Rucker, Jonathan S) won Pulitzer prizes? These people should not be rewarded for trying to normalize the Dotard.
Why do these WH reporters continue to allow the Dotard to spread lies? What is the point in even showing up to the Dotard’s briefings when they are not going to confront him about his lies? There were many questions they could have asked.
That would have been funny if the sketch looked like Donald Jr! Although Stormi would NOT have said he was handsome in that case
