CNN’s Alisyn Camerota asked Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Michael Avenatti why she would allegedly have sex with Donald Trump if she didn’t actually want to.

His response shockingly lacked answers.

WATCH:

“Last night Stormy Daniels said something really interesting,” Camerota stated. “She said that she wasn’t attracted to Donald Trump. She said that she did not want to have sex with Donald Trump. She also said this was completely consensual. Make sense of that for me.”

“She agreed to have sex with him at the time,”Avenatti responded. “I think there are maybe a lot of women that have found themselves in a similar situation, over the course of their lifetime and have perhaps given in to something that they really didn’t want to do at the time.”

“But why? Why did she do that?” Camerota pressed onward.

“Well, I can’t really answer that question relating to why she did it,” he said. “I think that, you know, she was 27 years of age at the time. She was impressionable. She wasn’t a teenager by any stretch of the imagination, but, you know, I think people find themselves in situations all the time and they make decisions that perhaps they regret.”

Camerota asked, “But did she think that she was going to get something out of that?”

“I don’t think she did it to get something,” Avenatti said. “I think she was in the moment, she made that decision.” (RELATED: Stormy Daniels: I’m Not A ‘#MeToo’ Victim)

“I mean, it was just curious to hear her, I had not heard her say she was not attracted to him and didn’t want to have sex with – generally a consensual relationship means that you’re both in it together, and so, that was just curious.”

“I don’t think my client is the only woman in the last 100 years that perhaps ended up having sex with a man that she really didn’t want to have sex with,” he said.
