and jobs all over the place!

What? That doesn't line up at all with how anyone is selling the damn things! The entire pitch coming from the industry is that it will remove jobs! "Stop hiring humans" anyone? Am I crazy?!

Of course not. Donnie was probably given some talking points from his billionaire buddies, and being the person he is, didn't read them. I doubt he even knows what a data center does. They're just something he was paid to say we should want. We already know he's not exactly 100% there mentally, and we already know it is really easy to bribe the fucker, so this shouldn't be a surprise.

Still, the fact that anyone still thinks that getting this guy to endorse a product will help make it more popular with the public continues to confound me.
