Remember when Michael Avenatti was not only a frequent guest on the ironically-titled CNN program “Reliable Sources,” but also being floated as being a possible presidential candidate:
CNN loved to talk about Stormy Daniels as well, because she was saying exactly what the anti-Trump Resistance at the time wanted to hear:

And how’s that all going? Maybe CNN could do a follow-up report on how all this could affect Avenatti’s presidential chances:

It seems like it’s been less than four years since the media was carrying Avenatti and Daniels on their shoulders. Wait, it has been less than four years!
Avenatti for President. Stormy for VEEP was such a great prospect a year or so ago. https://t.co/1ynkot5pyt

Follow-up appearances have been requested:
Do you think @CNN or @TheView can host them all again to elaborate?
