Fuckface says his convention speech got 107 million views, but Nielsen has it at 3.3 million across Fox News, Newsmax and NewsNation, while the NFL game that night drew 25.1 million. Even his own ratings fantasy got beaten by a football game.

Horrifying! And yet another reason why I despise AI and refuse to use it. I wish it could be disabled on every device and platform I use. I absolutely do NOT want AI ever to be the default search mechanism. (I add -ai to any search terms I use to prevent it when I can.)
