Michael Avenatti, the attorney representing porn star Stormy Daniels, announced Wednesday that he would run for president in 2020 against Donald Trump should he seek reelection, but claimed he would only run if there was no other candidate whom he thinks could beat the president.

“IF (big) he seeks re-election, I will run, but only if I think that there is no other candidate in the race that has a REAL chance at beating him. We can’t relive 2016. I love this country, our values and our people too much to sit by while they are destroyed. #FightClub #Basta,” Avenatti tweeted.

Avenatti posted the tweet in response to a user who asked when the left-wing lawyer for Stormy Daniels would launch his 2020 presidential bid.

Avenatti wrote a series of tweets, one warning American voters that Trump could win again and another outlining his support for issues such as abortion, gay rights, and amnesty for illegal immigrants.

Avenatti traveled to the U.S. southern border two weeks ago to represent 50 mothers separated from their children after authorities detained them for crossing the border illegally, and he advertised his services to get new clients.

The month before his trip, a judge hit Avenatti’s law firm with a $10 million bankruptcy judgment.
