Trump's Claims of AI-Generated Crowd Draw Criticism from Legal Experts
- George Conway criticizes Trump for delusional crowd size claims.
- Claims seen as evidence of autocratic tendencies.
- Comparison to Hitler sparks controversy and debate.
Former President Donald Trump's recent assertion that Vice President Kamala Harris used Artificial Intelligence to fabricate a crowd at a rally has drawn sharp rebuke from anti-Trump attorney George Conway. Conway characterized Trump as "completely lost it," labeling him a "deeply psychologically disturbed" individual exhibiting traits akin to historical dictators. He suggested that Trump's behavior reflects a significant psychological decline, likening his delusions about crowd sizes to Adolf Hitler's final days in hiding. In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed that Harris "cheated" by using AI to create the illusion of a large crowd at an airport event, sharing a zoomed-in photo he alleged showed no people present. However, reports indicated that approximately 15,000 attendees were present at the rally, which was extensively covered by news outlets. Conway emphasized that Trump's unfounded claims are indicative of a man under immense pressure, suggesting that the former president is not only campaigning for the presidency but also for his freedom amid ongoing legal challenges. The Harris campaign swiftly dismissed Trump's allegations, posting a photo of the actual crowd size on social media platform X, countering Trump's narrative. They also pointed out that Trump has not campaigned in a swing state for over a week, questioning his energy and commitment to the campaign. As the political landscape evolves, Trump's rhetoric continues to spark debate and concern among critics and supporters alike.
