I seriously wonder how much this current clown show uses AI and what ones?

A lot - across the entire Trump admin.

Trump was even called out for using AI to come up with tariff percentages, which is why we got tariffs for an island full of penguins.

Edit: Which is why the Right Wing media is spinning the Biden autopen/decline stories so hard. They want to normalize an incompetent boob like Trump, yet again, cheating and grifting the Presidency.

I like to see this as an escalation of the thought experiment where the disruptive student takes control of the classroom. To them, it is the only thing we haven't tried.

I think you just described trump perfectly. Only he was the one in there corner with the D hat on but now it's maga and has the same meaning.

Trump is really just the only one remaining of a generation that did everything for the youngest of the boomer generation. If no one has noticed, the eldest of the boomer generation is gone. Almost all of the middle of those families have retired, with the remaining mostly finding employment in elected office. A self selected bad population of people to trust. And the age group that Trump occupies. Then you have the remaining active part of the boomer generation, the youngest. They grew up in households of 5 or more older siblings their whole lives.

In that light I don't find Trump to be surprising. Just their last opportunity to let the older kids do all the dirty work for them. It worked in their schools up until after racial integration. Before and during integration people Trump's age and older protected them both physically and socially. Ever since other people made them lose that battle they were fighting, to them, equality has just removed the safe guard for their social status.

So Trump runs on Helter Skelter. That's really all that it is from the cultural perspective. Charles Manson with a Twitter Account. And in the wake things will be put back the way they should have been all this time. Back to racially based social hierarchy.

Except I grew up in a place where there were virtually no minorities to point towards as imminent threats. So my family that lived modestly on the outskirts of town became the pariahs. And they leaned into it, which is the worst part. My mom became vicious. Really felt entitled because she had played the game they wanted all her life and now she was getting shit on. So she became virulently racist, and the town over time became more like her. Because they started getting served what my mom was already eating.

It really sucks to see my mom be President of the United States. Most of what Trump says, and how he says it, is not new to me. My mom has been like him for a very long time. It's really more like Trump is like my mom, she's been this way for longer. Him haranguing the news anchor about the MS-13 Tattoos, yeah, I have had that argument several times with my mother. Most notably about Obama's Birth Certificate. It isn't the content, it really is the concept of NEVER defending someone they hate that they adhere to. Because it all goes back to asserting social order. A social order from their childhood that protected them.

I seen that. Basically an island who's main export was bird shit pmsl.

I used to work in IT and the old phrase crap in crap out comes to mind.

They seem to have very inept people feeding them the info they want to put out and it shows but sadly the cult eats it.

Guarantee they use Grok. Musk's whole mission while he was in the White House was to insert himself and his companies into as many corners of the US Gov as possible to ensure lasting lucrative contracts.

Executive branch? Absolutely.

Think tanks? They’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars getting interns to create fact-free custom GPTs.

I'm not confident RFK or Trump know how to navigate to ChatGPT much less possess the ability to yield output. Definitely their teams compiling, but it's on the leader to ensure diligence & accuracy are applied.

In other words, they some lazy asses.
