Jebus. This sounds like the AI psychosis spiral.
Like, I didn't think trump was smart enough to use AI. He can't read.
He must have found one that talks to him. And feeds everything he says to his rusky handlers.

He's got dementia and he confabulates. He's probably had it starting in like 2016 and this term they are trying to not to make him angry so they just show him shit he wants to see.

He's also had at least one stroke in 2025. That ones pretty undeniable, and there's a lot of evidence he may have had more since.

Did you see that video of him talking to an AI Roosevelt and the dumb fuck was actually talking back to the AI thinking he was actually talking to Teddy. Absolute buffoonery.

“Smart enough to use AI”? He “tweets” like a maniac and is able to just talk to an AI just the same. He definitely is on that 16 hours a day.
