Trump needs to be quiet about the "libel laws"

In

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-insists-he-very-stable-genius-amid-questions-over-mental-n835191

our ersatz president says about Michael Wolff's "Fire and Fury":

"I consider it a work of fiction and I think it's a disgrace that somebody is able to have something, do something like that," Trump said. "The libel laws are very weak in this country."


The guy who invented the birther lie needs to shut the hell up about "libel laws." If a sitting president could sue someone for libeling him, the building on Fifth Avenue would now be the "Obama Tower."
