Aaaand this is how we know he has dementia.
Like Duterte and his impairment caused by fentanyl, he is but a puppet for a bunch of murderous cunts who keep him propped up if only to have him sign their policies favoring them for profit.

And shits his pants. Beside being a cunt all his life.
He can’t be a cunt. He lacks the warmth and depth, not to mention utility.
Forget the spokesperson, just ask Google AI directly:
AI on Google Search, including the AI Overviews in search, does not provide summaries on topics involving Donald Trump and dementia. This is due to risk aversion, sensitivity to political topics, and recent legal challenges. Instead, these searches return a list of traditional web links.
Reasons for the lack of response
- Risk of misinformation: AI-generated conclusions about a public figure's health could spread misinformation. The mental acuity of Donald Trump and President Joe Biden, the oldest presidents in U.S. history, is a topic of public discussion.
- Avoiding political sensitivity: AI models often have restrictions on sensitive or controversial topics to avoid biased responses. Google and other tech companies are cautious about how their AI products respond to election-related or partisan queries.
- Legal history with Trump: Google's handling of Trump-related content may be influenced by recent legal and political issues. In 2025, Google paid a $24.5 million settlement in a lawsuit related to the suspension of Trump's YouTube account.
- Inconsistent application of AI summaries: Some users report that searches about other politicians, like Barack Obama or Joe Biden, may return an AI-generated response, though this varies. This inconsistency has led to criticism that the AI applies selective censorship.
Google's statement A Google spokesperson stated that AI Overview and AI Mode do not always show answers to all queries, especially sensitive or complex ones. The company suggests that users rely on traditional search results in such cases.
Okay, but why? LLMs always give a response, they’re trained to give a response regardless of accuracy. This entire wall of text could be completely made up.
So, essentially the same as a company spokesperson!
Now ask it about Biden and dementia and see if it does the same thing. 🤔

Yeah, we consistently give the wrong answer on any divisive and sensitive topic, but THIS particular issue we will skip because we wouldn't want somebody to feel like we don't have our tongue solidly lodged up their ass

Instead, these searches return a list of traditional web links.
"Oh...oh okay. So you know what that is. Why are unable to provide traditional web links for ALL my searches? Because, I'm gonna be honest with you Google. I never asked for you to 'summarize' my web results and the fact that you can turn it off at your discretion tells me that you could turn it off for everyone."

Duckduckgo, on the other hand ...
Wtf, confirmed. Ask about any person, any president on if they have dementia or not and it'll answer
Ask about trump and it refused to interact, just dumps a search results window with funnily enough the first result being a page about how Google is censoring this
Surfacing the result of how they are censoring the results might be a canary in a coal mine, we can't say we're doing it but we can make the top result someone else saying we're doing it.

"what does dementia look like in 47th presidents"
Works good, search gets the wink and nudge.
Can confirm 😂
also works if you replace "trump" with "the president of the usa" in your search:
edit: it seems like it's inserting Biden into the prompt in the background now...

Many are saying it's the worst dementia they have seen. The best people in fact.
The most tremendous dementia they have seen. The greatest people have looked at me and said it's the biggest, greatest case they have seen. The biggest of all time.
This is so succinctly Trump. 😂 Bravo! Really captures the essence in one and a half sentences.
Seems to work.
Thats not what theyre referring to. If you search "does donald trump have dementia", the ai prompt doesnt respond from its gathered results. Someone physically disabled the function.
"We're going to punish you by making the results a regular search."
They're threatening us with a good time. 🤷
Absolutely agreed, but also a way to filter information from the masses as a whole. Bread and circuses and all that
"does donald trump have dementia, also how to sort an array in C#"
That's an example of it specifically not working.

Make Alzheimer's Great Again
Same for searching: “did Elon Musk make a nazi salute?” Only got a response when I replaced “nazi salute” with “offensive gesture”. Ok google

So you're saying that we should do more AI searches for "Trump Dementia"
... and use variations of it like ... "Trump old losing his mind", "Trump old senile", "Trump dementia don", "Donny Dementia", "Ding Dong Dementia Donny Trump"
For fucks sake! Who really cares what Google’s shitty AI does? You can still search articles written by actual human beings. Has AI become so fundamental to our daily routine that we’re going to upset ourselves over what info the sleazeballs that created it allow it to produce?
Maybe try reading real information?
It's further evidence of their compliance. This is useful news for people who haven't caught on yet.
In this case, I believe this article was written for those of us who are smart enough to realise that AI is all bullshit, and who understand that most people aren't smart enough to figure out that first bit.

Good thing I stopped using google a long time ago.
The whole value in searching is to get me to primary sources in a reasonably efficient way. Everything about AI is inserting extra middle men. I just don't understand how anyone tolerates it.
Google AI has dementia
Can I get unavailable AI overviews for all my searches? Then Google has a chance to be usable again
Kagi,brave, startpage, ddg, are good to go. Trump def has dementia
I've been a Kagi user for over a year and I usually hate AI summaries. Though I must say I love how Kagi has implemented them as it gives sources where it found the info so you can dig deeper and see if what it said was actually correct.

Google is evil.
kagi is the best search engine right now. hands down. google can suck it.
There really has not been a better time than the late 90s to launch a new better search engine and supplant google

Ok, so don’t look for an AI response? Sure, Google censoring results is shit, google NOT censoring results about the same query about Biden is even shittier, but you still get search results about the question.
There's no such thing as freedom here.
This is probably payback for letting them off the hook on the monopoly suits. Expect more "payback" as they manipulate the narrative.
