    When you deeply immerse yourself in the multifaceted realm of political analysis and personal character judgments, it’s intriguing to observe the vast spectrum of perceptions surrounding a figure as polarizing as Donald Trump. Some individuals, after a careful and considered examination of his actions and statements, might arrive at the conclusion that he embodies a form of genius, a distinct capacity to navigate the turbulent waters of political and social arenas. To them, it appears as if his trajectory has been characterized by a series of unerring decisions, each one seemingly infallible in its own right. Now, the nature of human judgment is inherently complex, rooted in a combination of cognitive biases, personal experiences, and cultural influences. So, when one posits that they’ve never witnessed Trump commit an error or hold an incorrect stance, it speaks to a deeply held conviction, one that transcends mere observational analysis and delves into the realms of personal belief systems and interpretative frameworks. It’s crucial to approach such assertions with a balance of critical thought and open-mindedness, recognizing the vast tapestry of perspectives that shape our understanding of political figures and their legacies.

        I’d call it a “novelty” or “gimmick” account because a “meme account” should post memes, but yeah. Either it’s using chatGPT with a prompt like “write some bullshit about X in the style of Jordan Peterson” or it’s actually Jordan Peterson posting some bullshit.
