The Judge called it rape mate.

Its really fucked up that New York doesn't consider it rape.
But also notes that he was found liable for something different. The judge makes clear that in colloquial terms, yeah, it's rape. But legally, there is a difference. And Stephanopolous said he'd been found liable for rape, which is a very specific charge and a claim which is demonstrably false, even if we all understand his actions to be rape.
Law is fucked but in the confines of the law, trump's legal team has a point and, it seems, the law on their side.
