Donald Trump's meme-driven, vicious political style is influencing the official U.S. government internet presence.
It's bad enough that our sitting president sits up in either the Oval Office or in some golf cart somewhere, posting racist and/or Democrat-hating AI-generated videos during a time that would be better spent - oh, I don't know - running a country that is currently operating without a funded federal government. But, since Trump has been back in office, the social media feeds the White House and other federal agencies have also become little more than government-run 4chan threads for MAGA rubes who communicate their political ideologies through memes because they don't read books.
