SLAPP in the Face for Trump

Being a controversial figure in today's society always has it's pros and cons. Primarily its cons of negative media and false articles about the party being talked about. Donald J. Trump, presidential candidate, has been a loud mouth causing a ruckus through out DC and america stirring up controversy and creating his own like building a wall bordering two countries. Donald trump at a recent presidential rally mentioned that he wants to open up libel laws, simply stating it would make it easier to sue publishing companies and periodicals for defamation and libel. SLAPP is abbreviated for Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation, simply it is Trump's best friend when he sees an article that can puncture holes in his presidential campaign. Trump has been publicly open when talking negative about news companies whether on twitter, during debates or even at rallies. It would only make sense for his to want to keep this act in all 50 states and to change constitutional law regarding libel suits so he can control what news is out and open to the public. Although becoming president wouldn't help him change where SLAPP is used or even libel laws due to the fact it is state law and not federal law, maybe he should run for governor of New Jersey  before running for President of the United States to change libel law. To be honest you should read this article and share it with your friends before Trump sues me and forces me to take down my blog. I'm all with him though and we all should be, we should believe in the impossible!
