I mean...none of those things are disqualifying for running for office, even if he were convicted of any crimes related to them, which he hasn't been. Trump is a piece of shit, but yes he has a right to run for office. Now why people would still vote for him despite all that, is much more mysterious.
The Republican party has allowed him to be their candidate for president.
They absolutely could choose to prevent him from having that role if they wanted to.
And they don't want that. Trump is extremely popular within the party. Not sure your point.
He may be popular to some of them, but he's also turned the party into a cult of personality that has abandoned most of what it used to claim to believe in.
When he dies (or loses his ability to attract a crowd), the party will be a husk of its former self. They'll have abandoned their principles which attracted fiscal conservatives in the past, and won't have their cult leader to rally around.
The concept of AI weaponized mass propaganda on social media makes it less mysterious.
They were lost long before AI was unleashed on them, get it right.
AI has been employed in Facebook marketing for over a decade... LLMs are just the latest face of AI, not the full body of it...
Yeah, you don't know what AI is
Cool, what's the totally unambiguous meaning of AI that you have mastery of, m'boy? And why do other people not agree with you? Words mean more than just what you want them to mean
Wow, you couldn’t have put more FUD into that comment even if you tried
I'm just saying 'AI' has been around for, like, 60 years in one form or another. Sorry you've only just heard of it
I still haven't actually
Not actually an insane take tbf
