When Texas Congressman Blake Farenthold (R) told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes that he would have to think about whether or not he would continue to support GOP nominee Donald Trump, if he has said, “I like raping women!” Rep. Farenthold said, it would be bad, but he would have to understand the context in which Trump made such criminal suggestion.
