internet said Macron called him a crybaby?

These dumb memes with fake quotes, and all the stupid AI slop that any twit with access to an image generate can have AI vomit out, will do NOTHING to help the Democrats.

We have facts on our side. Real quotes. Real video.

All the internet fakery and AI slop in the world will do nothing to help us, because it's just garbage.

And if any Democratic politician is stupid enough to fall for this crap and thank Macron for calling Trump a crybaby, he's likely to get a real quote on what Macron thinks of people falling for stupid internet lies about what world leaders said.
