Speaking today at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), actor Robert Davi called for the passage of laws that would jail reporters for spreading false information about "the very best of our American heroes," like President Trump.
Davi claimed that in Ancient Rome, anti-calumny laws made it "impossible to spread false rumors or lies against upstanding and virtuous political candidates" and called for such laws to be enacted in America.
"Let's go back to Ancient Rome," David said, "because if such laws existed today, we would see more men like Donald Trump and Mike Pence running for Congress or the Senate or the presidency and more fake reporters perhaps going to prison for the very lies they make up to commit cruel character assassination against the very best of our American heroes."
