This was awkward.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Monday interviewed E. Jean Carroll, a woman who alleged Donald Trump raped her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the 1990’s.

Bergdorf Goodman is a very high-end department store packed with attentive salespeople and security which makes Carroll’s claims even more preposterous.

Anderson Cooper was left speechless and stuttering and decided to cut to commercial break after E. Jean Carroll called rape “sexy.”

“I think most people think of rape as being sexy,” Carroll said. “They think of the fantasies.”

“You’re fascinating to talk to,” Carroll added, staring at Anderson Cooper.

This woman does not seem well at all yet CNN is propping her up.

WATCH:

E. Jean Carroll claimed in a New York Magazine article which was published on Friday that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her.

The accusation is actually from an excerpt from a new book Carroll is slinging — SHOCKER — she’s selling a book and wants publicity.

Carroll claims in her hit piece that she has a “Most Hideous Men of My Life List” and recalls a list of “the 21 most revolting scoundrels” she has ever met.

“As it turns out, a Hideous Man marks practically every stage of my life. And so, Reader, from this cavalcade of 21 assholes, I am selecting a few choice specimens,” Carroll wrote.

President Trump promptly issued a response on Friday denying the allegations and said that he’s never met E. Jean Carroll in his life.

Carroll also claimed that she did not wash the dress she was wearing after being “raped” by President Donald Trump in the 1990s — but will not agree to allow the NYPD to test it for DNA and prove her outlandish tale.
