Remember how the evil Dems were going to steal elections with AI videos? Instead, it's time to play Piss Off Your Own Dying Base With Empty Promises (batteries and oxygen not included).

President Donald Trump shared a bizarre AI video to social media in which he’s seen promoting “med beds” — a far-right conspiracy involving a magical bed that can supposedly heal any sickness.

In a post to his Truth Social platform late Saturday night, Trump shared a phony, AI-generated Fox News clip — purportedly from Fox’s My View with Lara Trump — in which he’s seen rolling out this magic technology to hospitals nationwide. (UPDATE: Trump has now deleted the video.)

“Every American will soon receive their own medbed card,” AI Trump said. “With it, you’ll have guaranteed access to our new hospitals led by the top doctors in the nation, equipped with the most advanced technology in the world.”

Shame on FOX for airing this crazy UNTRUTH

I'm not seeing any reports it aired. Just generated and posted by Trump for whatever nefarious reason. I'd buy "This is why it's OK we're cutting back on Medicare and Medicaid." Magic ~~beans~~ beds.

Now, this said, whoever's behind the video was pretty brilliant, as they're able to use the Streisand Effect in their own favour. Even though it wasn't actually aired at the time, well, now it's a "news" clip Fox can run over and over under fair use.
