"3 weeks ago I said (Cohen) would flip I was the first one to call it.. Now people close to the president are telling him the same … I'm going to make a prediction now: I do not think the President will serve out his term" – @MichaelAvenatti tells @NicolleDWallace pic.twitter.com/Mw3Pdlhudt

Stormy Daniels’s attorney Michael Avenatti predicted on CNN on Thursday that President Trump will not serve out his full term.
Avenatti told host Nicolle Wallace no one believed him when he said that Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, would be under criminal investigation, and his next prediction is that the president won’t serve four full years.
“There’s no question that Michael Cohen knows where many, many bodies are buried,” Avenatti said. “They’re going to turn him, and when they turn him, the president is going to be in a very, very bad place. And I’m going to make a prediction now. I do not think the president will serve out his term.”
{mosads}Avenatti said Cohen will “flip” and praised a Wall Street Journal story from Wednesday about a former Trump attorney concerned after the FBI raids on Cohen’s office, home and hotel room last week.
The attorney, Jay Goldberg, claims he called Trump and said that on a scale of 1 to 100, where 100 represents full protection of the president, Cohen “isn’t even a 1.”
Avenatti said it “speaks volumes” that Trump’s counsel are warning him.
Avenatti has been locked in a legal battle with Trump and Cohen. Daniels, an adult film star whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, is suing the pair over a nondisclosure agreement regarding her alleged affair with Trump.
