Definitely good for a few laughs :) Thanks!

I loved that there's an "(inaudible)" in there at one point, and the audio called me a "stupid reporter" after a question.

I guess it's easy to simulate Trump because his speaking style already closely resembles a Markov chain. Like, this is pretty a pretty decent impression (from the linked site): Q: "how do we stop the rona?" A: "I know ronas very well -- our ronas are treating us very poorly...our ronas are not good, not good...our ronas are crooked."

''' Believe me....i must tell you. very nice news. the whitehouse loves ronas. i know ronas very well...federal agencies are working together to source the best ronas! '''

Everything I asked it just said, "you are [bad adjective]! That's a bad, bad question!"

Or similar.

I gave it gibberish and got “ Yeah. dhcherfs are very very good, let me tell you, to be perfectly honest!! the best news.”

yeah, unfortunately a client-side parser has it's limitations. NLP compromise can view any gibberish as a noun -- on the plus side, it's actually how DT would answer if you gave him gibberish. :)

I dunno, seems accurate to me in this case haha.

hmmm, that's so strange. I've tried a few times and can't reproduce, the string replacement is working on my end.
