Avenatti, Trump campaign official spar over ‘working class’ credentials

{mosads}”[Please] ignore the shades, gold watch, smug look, private jet, and sheer cockiness. Trust me – they really do care about you. What a joke,” the lawyer added. 

Parscale fired back on Saturday, calling the lawyer who has mulled launching a 2020 Democratic presidential bid “a joke.”

“Watch: 46 years old inherited from my dad who would run circles around you as working class,” Parscale wrote. “Plane: shuttle for 12 staff at ($400 each) which was cheaper. Born in Kansas and began my biz with $500. Sir I am middle America working class.” 

Avenatti dismissed the Trump official’s response while continuing to attack the campaign’s credentials to represent the “working class,” a major base of support for Trump’s 2016 electoral win. The lawyer accused Parscale of growing up “with a silver spoon in your mouth. Just like Trump.”

“Whatever you do, don’t quit running Trump’s campaign; we need you,” he tweeted.

You sir are the joke.

“Working class” @parscale? Your father was an attorney & CEO. You grew up with a silver spoon in your mouth. Just like Trump. That’s why you are tone deaf and taking “look at me in my shades” pics on a private jet. Whatever you do, don’t quit running Trump’s campaign;we need you. https://t.co/O437XoOGjh

The pair continued to exchange jabs, with Parscale telling Avenatti that he had “no idea” how he grew up.  

“I grew up, until I left, in East Topeka KS in a house built for 40k,” he tweeted. “My father owned a small biz and didn’t practice law when I was growing up. He became a CEO after I left. I wasn’t poor, my dad worked his butt off! I dare you to debate my father.”

Ha, you have no idea.

Avenatti, a frequent Trump critic who has said he is considering launching a 2020 White House bid to take on Trump, is headlining several high-profile Democratic events in key early voting states.

The lawyer has been representing Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, in her lawsuits against the president and his former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen.

Daniels is suing Trump over a nondisclosure agreement that was meant to keep her quiet about an alleged affair with him in 2006. She is also suing the pair, claiming they defamed her when denying her claims and calling her a liar.
