Trump says administration taking look at current libel laws

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Wednesday called for tougher libel laws, saying the current iteration is a “sham and a disgrace” as he addressed his Cabinet and reporters at the White House.

“Can’t say things that are false, knowingly false, and be able to smile as money pours into your bank account,” Trump said at his Cabinet meeting. “We are going to take a very, very strong look at that.”
