They don't have a problem doing whatever they want to do if he died. Lindsey Graham's death showed that. McConnell is wasting away in a bed but still breathing.
I am seeing an AI commercial staring Chuck Norris kicking ass with chicken wings. At the end, his 3 kids come on and say: "We're totally ok with this AI slop of our father! They paid us lots of money! Yay!"
Here is the question. What is so important that they hide his death until August 4th that is worth risking any consequences (if democrats grow a spine). What is the endgame.
At this point he is likely buried in an unmarked grave already, with a Mitch-print waifu pillow in his hospital bed with a speaker inside connected to some LLM. That waifu pillow will then be brought back to the US Senate and the entire GOP will say it's McConnell.
Waifu Pillow McConnell, US Senate Majority Leader.
I'm guesing they're gonna try to see if they can pass off an AI fake of him. Like "Oh, he's still alive, he's gonna vote! Here he is!" and see how long they can get away with it.
They only need to get away with it until next Tuesday. But you're right, considering there's zero real pushback there's no reason for them to not just keep going like this tbh.
interesting ethical dilemma: Is it ethical to use AI generated slop, in order to ironically demonstrate how some political shenanigans may involve using AI generated slop?
Yes, in small, specific doses. If you legitimately need to show someone thst deepfakes exist, then using a video of a deepfake can convince them. But usuall, one video can convince many people. I would more equate it to animal trials for a medication. It is acceptable to do a small trial to show it's unsafe, and then repost the results. You should not gas a family of squirrels every time you have an argument.

I guess AI has made him turtley enough for the Turtle Club.

His taxidermist should be proud!

His rehab is really coming along..
Maybe Governor Andy can spot him on some bench press triples when he stops by 😜

If you're hiding a corpse until Aug 4 to avoid a special election, you may be committing election fraud.

They really don’t care what’s illegal.

Haha, NO AI.

Outpatient recovery but he still can’t give the governor, or a single news station a call. That turtle is long dead

I call BS - no one does push-ups with their glasses on.
machine9
Or at least, not for long
notsurewhattocallthis
As a person who wears glasses, I can provide one sample point that I don't do pushups.

Mitch doing straight Sagat style one-finger push ups.

My medical professional parents think he’s at a vent farm. I don’t even know what that means.
usernametakenisthestoryofmylife
Would be more convincing if he were signing a bill at the same time.

For Mitch it’s usually about blocking bills but yes

No one comes out of a fall at 86 yrs old with just minor injuries.

Someone should do him with Epstein. Just for funsies

promoting the racial stereotype of the "magical asian" teaching the white person how to "kung fu"... this is disgusting

it says AI generated at the bottom left, but I'm not certain. This looks pretty real to me.

No, it's not. Not since they started ramping up and building all these new data centers.
