“Disincentivize”?

Ghost writer.

Not all caps, 20 y/o staffer wrote this.

And said staffer is dumb enough to think it’s both grammatically correct and in Trumps voice at the same time.

They even threw an emdash in there, so it was probably written by AI

As a former designer/typesetter/typographer, it pains me to admit that this is probably the case.

I'm no designer or typesetter, but I join you in mourning the em-dash.

Charlie? Is that you?

Figured it wasn't Trump's writing, he thinks a semiconductor is some guy who yells "All aboard!" when it's time to mount a half-erect penis.

New metaphor just dropped.

It doesn't end with "THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!!!"

Definitely a ghost writer.

Imagine needing a writer for twitter. I can understand for biographies of people who are not writers themselves. But can't you write like.. One paragrah?

Up next Elon Musk hires a ghost writter for Diablo IV to type in chat.

This is off topic but I wonder how long it will take before we learn the identities of the people who have access to Trump's twitter account. Ever since presidents started using Twitter in office nobody really assumed they were writing posts themselves , they have comms teams for that. Trump's relationship with Twitter had always been different, and the gimmick has always been that it's his way to talk to the people without the MSM filter.

But we know at this point that he doesn't write all his own posts and we also know that he sometimes criticizes specific companies. Anyone with even 15 mins of notice about these posts going live can make easy money on the stock market. It would almost be silly if there weren't people making a killing off it.

Its illegal of course but that hasn't mattered for a while.
