What Donald Trump understands and Dem elites don’t is young people moving away from Dems is why he won. This is why he said this and why he said Dems couldn’t get student loans canceled. He wants young people disillusioned with Dems. And the party is happy to comply!
Damn you know it’s bad when even Trump is feeling bad for me 😂

The jobs AI will replace are determined by culture, not skill. AI can do engineering tasks well, but we won't replace engineers. AI is terrible at creating content, but "human editors" and "writers" are devalued culturally and replaced even if profitable.
