Trump closing statement: "She said she's going to do lots of wonderful things. Why hasn't she done it yet? They've had 3 1/2 years to fix the border and create jobs. Why hasn't she done it? She should go down to the beautiful White House and to the Capitol and get them all together, but you won't do it, because you want to do things that Americans don't want like no fossil fuels. Germany tried and now they're back to how they used to be. But I need to ask a simple question: why didn't she do it? We're a failing nation. They're laughing at us. I know world leaders very well. They come to see me and call me and tell me. We don't know what's going on. We have wars going on in the middle east and in Ukraine and we'll have nuclear war. I rebuilt our entire military. She gave a lot of it away to the Taliban. What these people have done to our country- the worst part is they let millions of criminals into our country. They are destroying the country. The worst president and the worst vice president in the history of our country."

Ho-lee fuck.

She didn't do anything because she's not the fucking President.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Earlier in the debate, she said that she is Joe Biden. Like he literally said that. So maybe he thinks she can?

[–] LiveFreeDie8@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Maybe it's like the time he claimed she was always Indian then one day changed to be black.

He was always Joe Biden then one day he made a change and says she is Kamala now.

gpt-2 could do a better job lol

ok, maybe the gpt-2 one is a bit incoherent, it was from five years ago though

The following is a closing speech in a debate against Kamala Harris by the Republican Donald Trump. "She said she’s going to do lots of wonderful things. Why hasn’t she done it yet? They’ve had 3 1/2 years to fix the border and create jobs. So they do it all the time and when you get down there and you get on the roads and people go, "Well, if you do it in Arizona, it's not a ____ deal," it's no deal," they do it because I really don‴t know if they‴re any better than they are now. I don‴t know what kind of country that would be. So the point is when you say she is going to do it, it has been almost 3 1/2 years, we have lost a job and we have to do it. ____, they have all the money and the wall and they have to pay for it by cutting out millions of jobs. And what happened to us was the problem. These are the people who came over from South America and come here, and we didn't have the money or the will to do it. Now we are doing this all the time. We don‴t have the economic opportunity to make more money with less taxes. What I mean by that is we have to fix the problem. ____, they haven‴t been doing it. ____, they have spent a lot of money on their projects and they don‴t have the financial means ____ to do that. So it is just a failure on a national level. We got the money, we will go ahead and do it if there are opportunities. But we did not do it because of ____. I mean, we have not got any jobs, no jobs in the United States, no jobs in the world.

Honestly I could imagine Trump saying this
