You can not. CAN NOT write this type of scene involving #Trump. Hollywood would kick it back and say: That would NEVER happen. And yet.. It did! At the #G7Summit no less. 😳😱😂🤣😂

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepfake
Because of these capabilities, deepfakes have been used to create fake celebrity pornographic videos or revenge porn.[3] Deepfakes can also be used to create fake news and malicious hoaxes.[4][5]
An example of deepfake technology actress Amy Adams in the original (left) are modified to have the face of actor Nicolas Cage (right).

(13,875 posts)crap like this is just fodder for the idiots that claim that news is faked to make Trump look bad. We don't have to invent stuff to make him look like the clown he is.

(14,552 posts)Not only could the band not hold a note, even I could tell they were out of tune with each other. So it not like they didn't know how to play the song, they don't know how to play, period. It basically sounded like the 1st 2 weeks of beginner band class.

(6,278 posts)there's a difference. The shark was just doing what sharks do: it's programmed into them and they don't know anything else. But good 'ol Darth made a conscious decision to do what he was doing, just like this person, i.e., to be a royal asshole.
