      SLAPP is designed to prevent people like Trump from using the legal system to silence and otherwise harm critics.

        I’m pretty sure he is talking about the concept it represents where the corrupt justice system is now being overly punitive in a attempt to silence the public. Same thing just no similar law to control the prosecution.
