In today’s news cycle, another “fake video” supposedly showing items being tossed out of a White House window has surfaced. The President, in his infinite wisdom, brushed it off as AI-generated.
He told reporters:
“One of the problems we have with AI, it’s both good and bad. If something happens really bad, just blame AI. But also they create things—you know, it works both ways.”
Translation: AI is like duct tape — it fixes everything or it breaks everything, depending on the day.
Mr. President, on behalf of those of us who actually use AI for something other than excuses, let me say: please. Stop. Talking. About. AI. My father used to tell me, “Son, if you don’t have anything good to say, don’t say anything at all.” Sage advice that somehow skipped Pennsylvania Avenue.
Trump’s Take
Even President Trump weighed in, saying the video had to be fake because White House windows are bulletproof, sealed, and weigh 600 pounds each. You don’t just pop them open like the sliding glass door at Motel 6.
Fair point. Unless…
My Take: Enter Hunter B.
What if it wasn’t “fake”? What if it was Hunter? Picture this: in a drug-fueled rage, Hunter summons the strength of ten men and cranks open a 600-lb bulletproof window like it’s Tupperware. Law enforcement has always said druggies on a bender are superhuman — tasers don’t faze them, handcuffs snap, nightsticks bounce off like pool noodles.
Remember Rodney King? Clubbed over and over and still resisted. Now imagine that kind of energy pointed at a White House window. Suddenly, 600 lbs doesn’t sound so impossible.
The Imaginary AI Video
So if my AI chum were to create this “fake” video, here’s what you’d see:
Hunter at the window, hurling his belongings into the night because dad just told him, “Sorry, son, Trump says it’s his house now. Time to pack up.”
And what’s in that flying yard sale?
- Drug paraphernalia.
- Old VHS porn tapes.
- A couple of clown suits.
- Little black books with favorite call girls.
- A stack of laptops — because there’s always another laptop.
All of it landing in the back of a battered pickup parked below, tailgate down, ready to roll.
The Absurdity
That’s the beauty of AI. Not just making fake news — but letting us laugh at fake views. The absurd scenarios that probably aren’t true… but you just can’t shake the feeling that they could be.
Now that’s a video Gutfeld would love.
