The specific quote:
From the article:
Additional site reporting the same (in an interview):

Ok, logically, at least one of these is guaranteed to be a lie.
If you think of a trump speech like a LLM talking, you realize that he frequently doesn't know where a sentence will go when he opens his mouth because he's just stringing words and concepts together in a freeform flashy propaganda wordsalad.
LLMs nowadays have more long range structure than a Trump speech. Trump is more like an attention-free Markov chain.
Markov chains occasionally produce something clever or unexpected though. For example King James Programming (a Markov chain generator fed with KJV, Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs, and some of Eric S. Raymond's writings) sometimes wrote some amusing things. Later Why's Poignant Guide was added as an additional source, and still later started mixing in posts from a second generator fed the works of Lovecraft and Isabelle/HOL documentation.
It even produced more coherent political notions than Trump:
All of those quotes are in the first 3 pages, out of 94.
FTFY
Goddamned autocorrect, it was supposed to say fashy
Trump saw that episode of The Office and decided to emulate Michael Scott's strategy for speaking.
Though he was more coherent-sounding back then, it's possible he was an inspiration for that character, like how he inspired the character of Biff Tannen from Back to the Future.
Hmm, looks like there is a connection!
Maybe he did read Mein Kampf after all?
Fucking fascist Nazi piece of shit.
He doesn't read
Likely got it from a new alt right friend he made in the last 8 years
Probably Steven Miller read it to him by his bed, late at night, after he was half-passed out from too many hamberders.
Let's play everyone's favorite game show - Trump or Hitler!
I....I don't like this game....
Pro tip: Trump is the one speaking English
Barely
The best English. Lots of people are saying it. Believe me.
Person, Frau, Mann, Kamera, Fernseher
I like how it ends though.
