Trump wants to weaken libel laws amid feuds with reporters
Feeling maligned by the media, Donald Trump is threatening to weaken First Amendment protections for reporters if he were president and make it easier for him to sue them.
"I love free press. I think it's great," he said Saturday on Fox News Channel, before quickly adding, "We ought to open up the libel laws, and I'm going to do that." (What a fucking joke. He loves free press and he'll sue anyone who tells him he's full of shit)
The changes envisioned by the celebrity businessman turned Republican front-runner would mean that "when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money," he said at a rally Friday in Fort Worth, Texas.
Trump added that, should he win the election, news organizations that have criticized him will "have problems." He specifically cited The New York Times and The Washington Post.
Trump last month threatened to sue the Post after the newspaper wrote an article about the bankruptcy of his Atlantic City casino. On Twitter, Trump has routinely criticized reporters who cover him and their news organizations, including The Associated Press.
"The press has to be fair," he said in the broadcast interview.
First Amendment advocates condemned Trump's suggestions.
"His statement shows why we need libel protections," said Gregg Leslie, legal defense director for the Washington-based Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press. "Trump gets offended, he gets upset and he wants to sue to retaliate. That's not a good reason to sue someone."
Libel law in the United States generally makes it difficult for public figures to sue reporters or other people who criticize them. To win such a case, the plaintiff must demonstrate that factually incorrect statements were made with actual malice or a reckless disregard for the truth.
Trump said he would like to lower that standard. "We're going to have people sue you like you never got sued before," he said.
As the cocksucker tweets President Obama had him "wiretapped". A true representative of the "right" leaning douche-bags on this site.
Because the Supreme Court has repeatedly endorsed the existing legal standard, Trump could not change libel laws as they affect public figures by executive order or even with an act of Congress, Leslie said.
"I've never heard of politicians say they would repeal case law established under the First Amendment," he said. "You'd really need a constitutional amendment to do that."
Trump's comments on libel law are not the first time he has disagreed with widely held conceptions of constitutional law. Last year, he said he saw no obstacle to deporting children born to undocumented immigrants in the United States.
Courts have regularly found that such children are natural born citizens entitled to the same rights as any other American. Trump has said he does not believe a constitutional amendment would be necessary to get his way.
"You don't have to do a constitutional amendment. You need an act of Congress. I'm telling you -- you need an act of Congress," he said in an interview with Bill O'Reilly of Fox News last year.
the extreme for the left is totalitarianism
extremism on the right is anarchy
unlike on the right, the totalitarianism of the left is progressing quite rapidly
the shut down of free speech, with the idea that we are right so you cant have that opinion. they shut down opposing viewpoints at every turn, they do not believe in free speech for anyone but themselves
they use violence and intimidation of all sorts, from the determinations of their authority figures to the cry of racism to verbal and physical attacks
the left can only govern by creating laws for all the minutiae of life and an ever increasing police state to enforce their commands for everyone else but themselves
and to get there, they must command the seats of government. they use any means necessary to do so.
they do not believe in the rule of law unless its their law
is it any wonder Obama misused his powers? not to me. it would have been much more surprising had he not.
take george bush, for example, no matter what you think of him and the job he did in office, just a typical white guy without duplicity
he had his run, to him it was, hey we are America, its great and free , never had a thought at being underhanded or having some plan of world control. ok mr obama, let me help you with the transition
george bush has no idea, nice guys mostly never do, they would never do such things and it would never cross his mind that anyone else would
obama and his minions don't think that way, theirs is a world wide struggle for change, it never ends for them.
Obama's grandmother was just a typical white woman, he thinks he knows what that is, and he detests typical white people to his core
