In an episode of Politicon’s Politics War Room published in full on Thursday, Carville, 81, said that he doesn’t see Trump, 79, finishing out his term as scheduled due to his declining mental faculties.

“I just don’t see this guy being President of the United States by this time next year,” the “Ragin’ Cajun” said. “And I increasingly believe that we’re on a much shorter leash than that.”

“It’s just the rate of deterioration. I don’t have to be a neurologist, anything like that. I mean, we’ve all seen it,” he continued. “And you’re looking at it right in front of your eyes. And it’s not wishful thinking, it’s not projecting. It’s just what’s happening.”

“People are giving less of a s--t of what he says,” Carville said. “Foreign leaders, voters, politicians. It’s not the same job he had a year ago, and it’s clearly not going to be the same job come November.”

We generally understand how LLM hallucinations work. An AI model tries to generate what seems like a plausible response to whatever you ask it, drawing on its training data to construct something that sounds right. The actual truth of the response is, at best, a secondary consideration.

snip

But over the last few months, it has occurred to me that, for all the hype about generative AI systems “hallucinating,” we pay much less attention to the fact that the current President does the same thing, nearly every day. The more you look at the way Donald Trump spews utter nonsense answers to questions, the more you begin to recognize a clear pattern — he answers questions in a manner quite similar to early versions of ChatGPT. The facts don’t matter, the language choices are a mess, but they are all designed to present a plausible-sounding answer to the question, based on no actual knowledge, nor any concern for whether or not the underlying facts are accurate.

snip

This is not the response of someone working from actual knowledge or policy understanding. Instead, it’s precisely how an LLM operates: taking a prompt (the question about job losses) and generating text based on some core parameters (the “system prompt” that requires deflecting blame and asserting greatness).

The hallmarks of AI generation are all here:
• Confident assertions without factual backing
• Meandering diversions that maintain loose semantic connection to the topic
• Pattern-matching to previous responses (“ripped off,” “billions of dollars”)
• Optimization for what sounds good rather than what’s true

4. "Well, I don't like the fact that he's insane and trying to start a world war and surrounds himself

with corrupt billionaires while destroying our healthcare system and driving our allies away and ruining the economy but nobody's perfect and I really like some of what he says"

5. Carville's prediction reminded me of this one from early December:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220850204

There have been so many predictions, for so long, of Trump's imminent demise that it's hard to take any of them seriously. At some point, one of these predictions will turn out to be true, but so far the track record is not so great.

7. Tramp ain't going anywhere. He will take us all down.

He's not gonna die or be impeached or whatever fantasy people spin. He's going to continue to destroy and steal and kill while the Dem leadership wings their hands hoping for a midterm tsunami that won't happen.
