The Memer in Chief.
One of the best things to come out of President Donald Trump’s second term has been his discovery of AI. Of course I’m sure that the president isn’t sitting there making these AI-generated photos himself, but somebody on his team has clearly introduced Trump to the powers of AI and he’s let them run with it, sharing photos from his official social media account of himself as the pope, a jacked Jedi, and even a piano player rocking out to Journey.
Now, some people aren’t happy that these images and videos are coming from the President of the United States, but personally I think our government is so unserious anyway that it seems pretty fitting that our president is just trolling and posting memes to get people upset. Keep ’em coming.
Well lately the president has been locked in a heated war of words with aging rockstar Bruce Springsteen after The Boss made some pretty scathing comments about Trump during a recent concert in Manchester, England:
“In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration…
The majority of our elected representatives have failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rogue government. They have no concern or idea of what it means to be deeply America. The America that I’ve sung to you about for 50 years is real, and regardless of its faults, it’s a great country with great people. So we’ll survive this moment.”
The president fired back at Springsteen on social media over the weekend, calling the rock star “highly overrated” and saying that he’s never been a Springsteen fan:
“I see that Highly Overrated Bruce Springsteen goes to a Foreign Country to speak badly about the President of the United States. Never liked him, never liked his music, or his Radical Left Politics and, importantly, he’s not a talented guy — Just a pushy, obnoxious JERK, who fervently supported Crooked Joe Biden, a mentally incompetent FOOL, and our WORST EVER President, who came close to destroying our Country.
If I wasn’t elected, it would have been GONE by now! Sleepy Joe didn’t have a clue as to what he was doing, but Springsteen is “dumb as a rock,” and couldn’t see what was going on, or could he (which is even worse!)? This dried out “prune” of a rocker (his skin is all atrophied!) ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country, that’s just “standard fare.” Then we’ll all see how it goes for him!”
And today Trump continued his feud with Springsteen, sharing a meme on social media showing himself hitting a golf ball and knocking down The Boss on stage:
Of course I’m sure people are going to be upset about that one too, but come on, you’ve gotta admit that’s funny. You know one of his staffers cooked that one up and showed it to Trump and he was like, “I love it, put it up.”
Wild times we’re living in. Wild, but hilarious.
