The attorney for adult-film actress Stormy Daniels is calling the latest statements by U.S. President Donald Trump’s new attorney “an absolute unmitigated disaster.”
Michael Avenatti says the president’s attorney, Rudy Giuliani, “expects the American people to believe that he doesn’t really know the facts” of when Trump learned about the $130,000 hush payment to Daniels, who has alleged a sexual tryst with Trump in 2006.
