Donald Trump distanced himself on Tuesday from comments one of his top advisers made in an interview while defending the Republican presidential candidate from a decades-old rape accusation.
Trump said in an interview with CNN's Don Lemon aired Tuesday night that he would not fire his top aide, Michael Cohen, after Cohen told the Daily Beast that legally "you cannot rape your spouse."
"He's speaking for himself. He's not speaking for me, obviously, but I did tell him I disagreed with him," Trump told Lemon, calling The Daily Beast a "joke" desperate to remain relevant.
"Michael was extremely angry because he knew (the alleged incident) never took place," Trump said.
The rape claim stems from an accusation Trump's then-wife Ivana Trump leveled at her husband during divorce proceedings in the early 1990s, an allegation she walked back Tuesday.
Cohen has since apologized for the remark, which he characterized as "inarticulate."(continued)

No arguing with that.
If only his fanbase would agree.
You got to love how CNN downplayed this and didn’t repeat anything that Ivana Trump actually said… that she and Donald “are the best of friends" and that Donald "would make an incredible President.”
Sandbagging.

Wow, so he’s paraphrasing g-d now? I knew he though he was a g-d. I’m surprised he doesn’t have a giant burning bush up there.
What's with the obsessive focus on his wealth? Phony contributions? What's he talking about?
Hillary? Obama? Bush?
[Wow, so he’s paraphrasing g-d now?
TED CRUZ supporter defining DONALD TRUMP quote ‘I am what I am.’
TRUMP translation: “What you see is what you get.”
It is more than obvious that Obama had tens of millions of phony donors who gave $1 less than the amount needed in order to declare who gave the money. All from prepaid debit cards paid for in cash.
It is called election fraud and the Democrats in particular are the masters.
I am no Trump fan boy. I will be voting for Cruz in the primaries, but Trump is leading because he is telling the truth and doesn’t give a crap who he shows to be a phony anti-American jerk.
If only Donald had a pipe in his mouth...and the cap is a pretty good facsimile of Trump’s comb job!
Go Donald! If Popeye could vote, he would be punching lights out with you! The ‘light’ of evil cannot stand the light of Truth!
