This seems like a waste of money. Why do you need more than you could ever possibly think of using?

Well let’s cancel all those production contracts, cut the defense budget in half, and abandon plans for the golden fleet and golden dome. I feel much better now. Or his dementia is progressing. I’d do a vote but the choices are; crazier and even more crazy. ---

I’m just waiting for somebody to say “CountryX has the most people living in poverty” only to be interrupted by Trump saying “You know, we have a lot of people in poverty. Some say the most” ---

> [@aurora\_maire](#): > > That wasn’t even a contender in his original polls. I wonder if he held that back while he was busy betting on it on Kalshi and getting a trademark for it. Sounds plausible. I didn’t take in his whole UN speech today–human strength has its limits. But I did get in on his extended musing on His Dread Power and his speculation on how soon the entire world will have stopped saying that bad-old “Artificial Intelligence/AI” and will now be saying the Correct “Super Intelligence/SI.” He seemed to really think that this might happen. ---

JFC. The house is burning down so LET’S CHANGE THE NAME OF THE HOUSE! That’ll fix the problem, right!? What the hell is his obsession with renaming everything? Dementia, yeah I can buy that. Artificial Intelligence → Super Intelligence. No one’s going to call it that. We’ve had a perfectly cromulent word for describing this new technology in layman’s terms and it’s been in common usage for a hundred years now. Another “great idea” of his that will be tossed on the dustbin of history. > Trump: “You call it United Kingdom, Britain, they call it sometimes England. They go back to the old. It’s got more names than any other place in the world.” Welp, I guess we should start calling it “The United Kingdom of Great Trump and Northern MAGA” from now on. As decreed by “The Great Renamer.” 😒 ---

I’d say that the country with the most names is probably Germany: almost every language has a **[different name](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCRo5CxYjig&t=114s)** for Germany (link to a corroborating YouTube video, 3 minutes). Very few people know this, and President Ineptstein is not one of them. ---

> [@Jihi](#): > > What the hell is his obsession with renaming everything? Dementia, yeah I can buy that. > > Artificial Intelligence → Super Intelligence. The billionaire tech bros are unhappy with the pushback against data centers and AI in general and money talks. Especially with Trump. This is his “brilliant” pitch to the American public to keep that flow of money coming. It looks like it’s working about as well as anything he does, which is to say not at all and his pathetic attempts make him look some combination of idiotic and senile. ---

> [@Jihi](#): > > We’ve had a perfectly cromulent word for describing this new technology in layman’s terms and it’s been in common usage for a hundred years now. He doesn’t know any of that. He keeps calling it a “new phenomena”. Which means, of course, that he is just finding out about it. Which means it didn’t exist before and now he must christen a name for it. So he will force the government to start calling it that and cause mass confusion. That should really help with the problem!
