The most recent South Park episode, featuring a naked Donald Trump, may have violated the law.

    Trump has inappropriately promoted and used various AI depictions of some seriously fucked up shit, and therefore would immediately lose in court if trying to sure based on the existing laws.

    Yeah, that makes zero sense.

    1. The Supreme Court has ruled that the President can’t be charged from crimes committed while in office. That’s why he’s walking free today instead of rotting in a fucking jail cell where he belongs.

    2. The commission of a crime does not suddenly excuse everyone else from committing said crime.

      Are you out of the loop?

      Trump had posted to his own Truth account a week ago an AI generated video of Obama being arrested in the White House.

      Are you a fucking bot, or just ignorant?

      The way this works in a legal sense is that Trump would be fucking foolish to try and sue a CABLE show (not under FCC purview) that did what he did. Present an obviously fake depiction of something as fact.

      Not only will he lose in court because Trump set the precedent for doing so, he will be open to countersuit just because of that fact.

        I am not out of the loop. #2 was referring to that incident. Your personal insults are unwarranted.

          Your post does not cover CIVIL SUITS, which is where this all would lie in the courts.

          Trump will lose, open himself up to discovery, and allow an entire binge by legal process into every little part of what is going on right now, which his lawyers will not allow.

          I think you’re commenting on something you don’t understand, no offense.

            Your post does not cover CIVIL SUITS

            You’re the one who’s referring to criminal law:

            would immediately lose in court if trying to sure based on the existing laws

            The defense of “nuh-uh, he did it first” will simply not hold water in a court of law.

            Discovery does not work the way you think it does.

            I think you’re commenting on something you don’t understand, no offense.
