Because f*ck the First Amendment.During an interview on ABC s This Week, host Jon Karl asked Priebus about Trump s threats to  change libel laws  so that he can sue the New York Times for running stories that hurt his feelings.The failing @nytimes has disgraced the media world. Gotten me wrong for two solid years. Change libel laws? https://t.co/QIqLgvYLLi  Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 30, 2017 That would require, as I understand it, a constitutional amendment,  Karl said. Is he really going to pursue that? I think it s something that we ve looked at, and how that gets executed or whether that goes anywhere is a different story,  Priebus replied. So you think the President should be able to sue the New York Times for stories he doesn t like?  Karl continued to press. I think that newspapers and news agencies need to be more responsible with how they report the news,  Priebus responded.  I am so tired. I don t think anyone would disagree with that,  Karl said.  It s about whether or not the President should have the right to sue them. And I already answered the question. I said this is something that is being looked at,  Priebus said.  But it s something that, as far as how it gets executed, where we go with it, that s another issue.
