    President Trump said Wednesday he will take a “strong look” at the nation’s libel laws following the publication of Michael Wolff’s book that paints a chaotic and dysfunctional picture of his presidency.

    Speaking from a prepared statement before a Cabinet meeting, Trump blasted the current laws as “a sham and a disgrace.”

    “Our current libel laws are a sham and a disgrace and do not represent American values and American fairness,” he told reporters. “We're going to take a very, very strong look at that.” Trump said he wants people who are the subject of false claims to have “meaningful recourse in our courts.”

    The comments are Trump's latest response to the book “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House,” which has engulfed his administration in controversy in the first days of the new year.

    Say's the Man who says he's a Billionaire but refuses to release Taxes and the Man who spent 7 years slandering President Obama over a Birth Certificate.

    FU Trump

    Michael Wolff’s book was highly libelous, but Trump has as much chance of winning such a suit as I have being elected prime minister of Britain.
