President Donald Trump has shared a flurry of new AI delusions — including a video that shows him showing off his new White House ballroom to America’s first president, George Washington.
In a bizarre clip shared Sunday morning, Trump, 80, can be seen walking through his newly constructed White House ballroom alongside Washington, who died 227 years ago. The AI-generated Trump points and gestures while carrying what appear to be construction plans, while Washington nods along.
Along with the AI fantasy, Trump wrote: “Thank you, George, for some of your brilliant ideas on this great Military Complex/Ballroom! President DJT.”
Construction of the tacky $400 million ballroom project is currently on hold after a federal appeals court rejected the president’s attempts to build the sprawling facility without congressional approval . However, courts have allowed the continued construction of an expansive bunker beneath the ballroom, which officials say is vital to national security and the president’s safety.
Trump on Saturday also shared an odd AI image of himself and Washington riding horses.
