'Are we serious right now?' Analyst stunned by GOP silence after Trump's latest AI video
President Donald Trump's artificial intelligence-generated video of him flying in a fighter jet dropping feces on American protesters stunned one political analyst on Sunday.
On Saturday, Trump posted a video of himself flying in a fighter jet labeled "King Trump." Trump then drops feces on protesters, including high-profile Democratic activist Harry Sisson. The video appears to be set in Times Square in New York City.
Jack Cocchiarella, a progressive Gen Z political commentator, reacted to the video on a new episode of the "Bulwark Takes" podcast on Sunday. Cocchiarella was visibly stunned by the video.
"This is the president of the United States and he's dropping s--- on New York City," he said. "Are we f------ serious right now? They hate us. They hate America."
Cocchiarella added that the video is another example of how Republicans are willing to hold Trump to a different standard than any other Republican leader.
"You see this on the right, where they'll take the tiniest little out-of-context clip of someone vaguely associated with the left, and they will make it a national scandal," he said. "They will use it to define liberals as a whole."
"But the president of the United States is like using taxpayer money to generate AI slop videos of him actually s------- on people, dropping feces, and again, Republicans will just say, 'Well, I didn't see it. I don't know.' What standard do we hold Donald Trump to anymore?"
