2. Web sites yes, but no AI summary.

When you search the same for other president's, the AI summary is there. For Trump, you get a message, apparently, that the AI summary is unavailable.

4. I have AI summaries turned off in google search, so I didn't notice any difference

I hate having AI shit pushed upon me everywhere

3. I just searched for Trump's and President Obama's mental health

AI summary for Obama is there, including a summary for Michelle. For Dear Dufus, there is a message that the summary is unavailable.
