Shit's wild. Remember when we all thought Bush (the second one) was an idiot because he fumbled the "fool me twice" rhyme? I feel like the Republican presidents just don't use speech writers. All these presidents have some education. They are not illiterate. But I think some of them realise if they just said whatever came to their mind, people would rip it apart, so they go through filters that control the narrative, and some of them just... don't. This guy sounds crazy. This guy sounds like someone who should not have nuclear weapon codes. But the thing is, the ones that do sound sane just have better people they lean on. If you took the ones you like, the ones people generally liked, like Clinton and Obama, and got them drunk and had a candid conversation with them, they'd probably say dumb shit, too.

Is it scary that the US leaders are unhinged? Or maybe we're all just people trying to figure shit out, and no one should have all the power? It takes all of us. One guy, one party, one country — that's never going to work. No matter who it is. Your guy, their guy, my guy — they need a team to temper their ideas.

    WHOEVER WINS AI, WINS!

    Yep. They're definitely banking on an AI apocalypse, and they think that's going to be fine and dandy as long as they're the ones setting the parameters of the AI that kills us all.
