That may be a better argument for you but that is not what you argued.

He would absolutely love to gut the 1A. His base wouldn't stand for it (at least you would hope) but to say he isn't attacking the right to free press is selectively hearing what you want to hear and ignoring what you don't.
Make the argument. So far you are 0 for 1. But don't just spit out talking points with no evidence to support them, that's what modern journalists do.

I'm going to open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles
Nope, not absurd if you ask me.
ETA: and to read that article an conclude that Trump wants to "gut the 1st Amendment" shows some serious reading comprehension issues on your part.

And you know this how? Evidence please, not because you "think so" or "feel" he does.

So do you have a problem with current libel laws? Or just a problem with what Trump said.
Do you understand that the freedom of the press and the freedom of speech cannot be used to defend oneself from accusations of libel and slander?

On the surface, no it doesn't. But go ask your favorite legal scholar (find a conservative one for that matter) what this kind of legal precedent would mean.

Drives me insane. Especially when I see people that I give more credit to than I should. When otherwise brilliant lawyers get emotional it is so ugly and sad.

Trump's statement was unbelievable vague. No legal scholar could possibly form an opinion based in it.

Too vague or too stupid? He was barking up the wrong tree and he quickly realized it.
