President Trump continued lashing out Wednesday against famed Watergate journalist Bob Woodward’s new bombshell book, calling it a work of fiction and suggesting that Congress change US libel laws.

“Isn’t it a shame that someone can write an article or book, totally make up stories and form a picture of a person that is literally the exact opposite of the fact, and get away with it without retribution or cost,” the president tweeted.

“Don’t know why Washington politicians don’t change libel laws?” he added, a day after explosive excerpts from “Fear: Trump in the White House” were released by several news outlets.

But the president is at a disadvantage in his ability to fight back because most of Woodward’s interviews were caught on hundreds of hours of tape, officials told Axios.

In the damning tell-all, which comes out Tuesday, current and former White House aides painted a scathing picture of Trump — calling him “unhinged, an “idiot” and a “liar” and describing him as a thoroughly inept and unfit commander-in-chief.

The White House responded to the tome by calling it “nothing more than fabricated stories, many by former disgruntled employees, told to make the President look bad.”

Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement that “sometimes it is unconventional,” but that Trump “always gets results.”

Sanders also made the media rounds Wednesday, including on ABC News, where she said that Trump would not be as successful as he’s been as president if Woodward’s account were true.

“The president laid out an agenda very clearly during the campaign, and since day one of taking office he’s delivering on that agenda every single day. You can’t have the type of success that this president has had if what that book says is true,” she said.

Sanders added that even though Woodward says he has hundreds of hours of tape to back up the claims in his book, they are off-the-record accounts from “disgruntled former employees.”

She noted that while attacks on the president were made anonymously, the denials of those remarks were made on the record by “American heroes” — White House chief of staff John Kelly and Defense Secretary Jim Mattis.

“It’s clear that you have the accounts from people firsthand … and they’re on the record, which is very different than what this book is filled with,” Sanders told Fox News in a separate interview.

The president reacted in similar fashion in January to journalist Michael Wolff’s book, “Fire and Fury,” which questioned his mental fitness to occupy the White House.

“Our current libel laws are a sham and a disgrace and do not represent American values or American fairness, so we’re going to take a strong look at that,” he told reporters at the time as he met members of his cabinet.

“We are going to take a strong look at our country’s libel laws so that when somebody says something that is false and defamatory about someone, that person will have meaningful recourse in our courts,” Trump said.

“You can’t say things that are false, knowingly false, and be able to smile as money pours into your bank account,” he added.

In February 2016, Trump also took aim at libel laws during a rally in Texas.

“One of the things I’m going to do if I win, and I hope we do and we’re certainly leading — I’m going to open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money,” he said in Forth Worth.

Under the law — largely determined at the state, not federal level — public figures can win libel suits only if they can prove the information was published with actual malice, knowing it to be wholly incorrect, as well as in cases of reckless disregard.
