"I'm afraid of AI!" says the former president who suggested, live, on camera, injecting bleach intravenously to cure a virus, and nuking a fucking hurricane.

We won't live long enough to be afraid of SkyNet if this felonious fucktart regains office.

“A SOLID FLU VACCINE”: A SCIENTIST LOOKS BACK ON THE DAY TRUMP CAME UP WITH A CURE FOR THE CORONAVIRUS

Edit to add a quote:

Here’s this guy, the president, with zero medical training and a history of being — let’s face it — not the brightest bulb in the box, who, for some reason, thought it would be a great idea to give highly specialized medical professionals advice, and yet it worked like a charm.

Before the Jan 6th Insurrection occurred, I actually sat down, gathered all the relevant electoral, polling, and covid data, and did the math to answer this question:

What if the rampant hysteria from covid denial had not happened? What if counties and cities that went red had actually implemented and adopted the mean of covid policies that areas that went blue did, and had percapita death rates to go along with those?

Answer: Trump might have actually won. Not the popular vote, but electorally.

He likely literally killed his chances at re-election via promoting covid denialism, leading to a greatly oversized proportion of deaths amongst areas more likely to vote for him, that could have flipped some states red if that had not happened.

He's like 900 years old. Anything more complicated than Twitter gives him a seizure. Lmao.

Even twitter gives him seizures.

I mean, how else do you explain cofvefe? And all the other shit?

it's all them sharpies; fumes tainting his brain.

Fumes? I don’t think he huffs them. I think he eats them.

He’s afraid of AI because he didn’t realize it wasn’t legitimate. He’s just realized it was fake and is totally doing the “wtf is this shit” thing we did back when they were doing the photos to signing 80’s songs…

"photos to signing 80s songs"?

I think they meant singing - they might be referring to the "deepfake" tech that was taking old photos and making them seem like they were singing 80s songs.

Following his logic that might just be his way of asking money from those companies.
