Stormy Daniels’s attorney picks up a new client: ‘Stuttering John,’ who prank-called Trump last week

Michael Avenatti, the lawyer representing adult-film star Stormy Daniels, has added another celebrity with an issue involving President Trump to his stable of clients: John Melendez, the comedian who claimed to prank call Trump last week on Air Force One.

Melendez, better known by his moniker on the “Howard Stern Show,” Stuttering John, tweeted over the weekend that Secret Service agents had come knocking on his door in response to the prank, adding: “I guess my old friend Donald wants to continue this.”
