Of course, understand that by the very definition you cant rape your spouse. It is true. You cannot rape your spouse. Theres very clear case law. Except thats not exactly true. Lets get to athena jones, live in washington with more on this. Good morning. Good morning, carol. This is getting a lot of attention. As you mention, marital rape is illegal in all 50 states. Nonconsensual sex with a spouse is considered rape. Michael kohn is wrong on that. The Trump Campaign is distancing himself saying hes a lawyer. He works for the Trump Organization not the campaign. We have seen him appear as a spokesman many times on our own air. I can tell you, michael kohn told the daily beast writer tim mack he was going to come after every penny. He threatened lawsuits. He said he would come after the daily beast and everybody the reporter knows. I want to play what tim mack knows about the exchange. Go ahead and play that.

I think it would be very difficult to see him win a general election. As a result, i think you are right, republicans are concerned. They are squirming as i said. Donald trump says this isnt about him.
