Former Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Matthews told The New York Times that the sheer volume of these posts has made people desensitized to their absurdity. She described the president as an 80-year-old man spending excessive time consuming and sharing AI-generated content that portrays him as the most powerful figure in the world. Other commentators, including political analysts and lawmakers, have echoed similar concerns, calling for greater accountability and questioning whether Trump is fit to lead.
