As Twitchy readers know, Michael ‘Basta’ Avenatti has been super fussy about the success of Mollie Hemingway and Carrie Severino’s new book, ‘Justice on Trial’. He even threw a little temper tantrum on Twitter (we know, that’s so unlike him, heh) …

This book and the work they did is complete garbage. They never contacted me for comment on anything. Why not? Because they knew it would destroy their narrative and nonsense about Swetnick. They wrote a book of fiction and are rightly being ignored. Complete hacks. — Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) July 15, 2019

And Mollie, of course, dropped the discredited ‘attorney’ with a bombshell of a tweet. Then to add insult to injury, Carrie Severino sent Avenatti this …

BASTA!

Whoohoo for a successful book and big thanks to Avenatti for helping the ladies sell more copies.

He responded:

Carrie – when are you and your co-author going to appear publicly with me on television (preferably on Fox News) to dicuss your book? If you stand behind your work, you should jump at the chance. In reality, we both know that you fabricated facts to fit your agenda. — Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) July 15, 2019

So desperate to be relevant.

It’s almost sad.

Almost.

This is so great. He's going to actually sell even more books for you guys! Love it! Fantastic book too, I couldn't put it down! Well done. — Jellenne (@jellen805) July 16, 2019

So glad you and Mollie wrote this book!! Exposing Avenatti for the fraud he is makes it even better!! — Tammy Lynn (@lynn521tr) July 15, 2019

We’re starting to think Avenatti seems a little more triggered than usual.

This is his pinned tweet:

.@MZHemingway and her co-author have fabricated a number of “facts” for her recent book relating to Kavanaugh, including relating to Ms. Swetnick. I am calling her out on it. Mollie – pick any network (even your beloved Fox) and let’s dicuss what really happened. Time to step up. — Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) July 15, 2019

Think he’s figured out nobody takes him the least bit seriously yet?
