That’s not true at all - if something is published that is deliberately false they can in fact be sued by a public figure.

This is one of the scariest things ever uttered by a politician and yet you defend it just because it was said by Trump. You will literally defend anything this man says and just make things up to do it.

Not quite. A public figure has to take it a step farther and prove malicious intent which is extremely difficult to do.
