Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton is refusing to respond to Republican Donald Trump's recent comments that she was an "enabler" of Bill Clinton's marital infidelities during his political career.

Trump said that Clinton was "married to a man who was the worst abuser of women in the history of politics."

Today we talk these and other issues related to what is shaping up to be one of the most spirited races for the White House in decades. Alan Chartock takes your calls. 800-348-2551
