Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Back on early ChatGPT I asked it to write me instructions on how to change a tire in the style of a Trump speech. Output was pretty good.
Look, folks, I'm gonna tell you how to change a tire, and nobody knows how to change a tire better than me, believe me! First, find a great spot, a tremendous spot, a spot where winners change their tires. You're gonna need a jack, a beautiful jack, the best jack, okay? You put that jack under the car, right near the flat tire, and you pump it up, you pump it up bigly! We're gonna raise that car, just like we're raising this country, folks!
Now, get yourself a lug wrench, a fantastic wrench, a winner's wrench. You're gonna loosen those nuts, those lousy nuts, lefty loosey, righty tighty, that's how it goes, okay? Unscrew 'em all, but don't let 'em get away, folks. Keep 'em close, keep 'em close to you, just like we keep our jobs close to America! Take off that flat tire, a pathetic tire, a loser tire, and put on the spare. You gotta have a spare, a magnificent spare, a spare that's gonna make your car great again!
Now, screw those nuts back on, folks. Screw 'em on tight, tight like our borders, okay? We don't want 'em coming off, we don't want 'em running away like crooked politicians. Lower that car with the jack, easy, easy, just like we're lowering taxes, lowering 'em for the hardworking people! Finally, tighten those nuts again, extra tight, tighter than anyone has ever tightened nuts before. That tire is gonna stay put, folks, it's gonna stay put like I'm gonna stay put in the hearts of the American people!
That's it, folks, you've changed that tire, and you've changed it beautifully, believe me. Nobody changes tires like we do, nobody! Now, get out there, drive with pride, and remember, we're gonna keep winning, winning like never before!
That is waaaaaay too cohesive of a text.
Trump would never stay on one point for that long.
He used to purposefully change topics frequently to keep on bullshitting when he was less demented and now he just isn't able to focus for long enough to talk about one topic for that long.
