>> I am honestly a lot less worried about the content and a lot more about the fact that it is a non trivial question whether or not the son of the leader of the free world is a crack user.

Joe Biden is not the leader of the free world. And it is not an open question whether Joe Biden's son is a crack user.

Look around in the thread and you will see a few more people who cant tell you if those are deepfakes or not. It all just sounds too weird. Its also worth noting that this thread got initially flagged.

USA is the leading country of the free world (by having the heaviest cultural, economic and technological impact), so by transitive property Joe Biden, being the leader of that country, is also the leader of the free world.

I think he is saying he believes Trump is still president.

I don't believe Trump is still President.

I don't believe Trump is the leader of the free world. But I do believe, "Trump is the leader of the free world", while completely false and wildly inaccurate, is closer to the truth than "Joe Biden is the leader of the free world".

I don't particularly believe that people in the US, or internationally, want a free world. I think for the most part they want to be free to tell me what do to. Which is not going to happen.

But no, Trump is not, currently, President.

That’s an uncharitable interpretation to make without other supporting evidence.
