Should make deepfakes where he sounds sane and rational while pushing policy issues on the left. Get the MAGAts unintentionally supporting those things solely because their "daddy" said something good about it. Then wrestle with the confusion about supporting left leaning policy or admitting they just buy in to whatever trump says no matter what.

The point of the article is that they seem to be preparing for a really damning video that they will then claim is a deepfake.

Supposedly there is a video of him groping a minor at some event that they're going to release. "Can't wait " for that one... Of course no one will believe it because reality died a long time ago.

I'll be curious to see all the "tells" they manufacture to insist it's AI.

They won't ever see it because the talking heads that control their thoughts won't show them

Him dropping the N-bomb on the apprentice. I'm guessing they want to make this like the access Hollywood "grab em by the pussy" but drop it closer to election day

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

The speculation is either that or the piss tape.

[–] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Trump voters like him because he's a gross fat grubby old hateful man.

I'm not sure any negative facts could hurt him.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 27 points 3 weeks ago

MAGA likes him because of that.

There's plenty of "Republican is my team" voters and some of them may choose to sit this election out depending on what comes out.

And remember, it only takes a handful of people to do that in an election this close.

[–] SeaJ@lemm.ee 17 points 3 weeks ago

I swear that neither would lose him a single goddamn vote.

[–] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 weeks ago

Assuming there is a piss tape, I don't think it will see the light of day unless he really manages to disappoint daddy Putin. Maybe if he loses the election, but I sort of feel like there wouldn't be much point in that case.

[–] RampageDon@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I thought it's the video of him groping an intern that we've been hearing about for the last 24 hours or so

[–] Samvega@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago

Trump is surprisingly popular with white women, and I think those voters will be able to rationalise away evidence of him being sexist. Sadly, too many women victim-blame rape survivors.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Wouldn't matter what he said. As long as Fuckface 45 says it, they'll vote for him.

[–] figjam@midwest.social 4 points 3 weeks ago

I love this. But no.
