Newly released audio recordings revealed on Thursday that President Trump's longtime lawyer Michael Cohen made a string of vulgar legal threats to a reporter in an effort to protect Trump.
The audio, taken from a 2015 interview with Cohen and then-Daily Beast reporter Tim Mak and published by NPR - Mak's current employer - on Thursday, reveal Cohen making legal threats to Mak over a piece he was writing about a 1993 Trump biography.

According to Mak, the lawyer initially attempted to convince him not to go through with the story by falsely claiming that spousal rape was not a crime.
"You're talking about Donald Trump, you're talking about the frontrunner for the GOP, presidential candidate, as well as private individual, who never raped anybody and of course understand that by the very definition you can't rape your spouse," Cohen said in one audio recording.

Well, perhaps based on Cohen's legal advice, Trump thought it was okay to sexually assault Ivana, because "you can't rape your spouse."
