Is lying and deceiving people fine, according to the 1st amendment?

For example foreign states that pays armies of internet trolls to in effect choose president in the US -- is that what the 1st amendment wants to happen

Hmm not sure I understand.

You're saying that maybe the 1st amendment could be edited a bit so that it was more clear that such things aren't okay?

I'm thinking people interpret "free speech" in sometimes quite different ways
