DONALD TRUMP FOVE MINUTES AFTER MEETING ME: There's this character, they're called heroes in the game, can you believe that? Not characters but heroes. I like that. Anyways there's this hero, H-E-R-O, named Kiriko and they're saying she's unfair. She's got a cleanse, can you believe that? Unbelie...
DONALD TRUMP FIVE MINUTES AFTER MEETING ME: You know they're saying Sylvester McCoy is an underrated Doctor, and you know, maybe there's something in it. A lot of great stories in those last years. A lot of great stories. Year four of the Cartmel years would have been something special, folks.

Read the whole thread for a view from the front lines of how GenAI chatbots have democratized and accelerated the development of (and access to) conspiracy theories. Birds of a feather no longer necessary.
