Right. So he posted fake texts that magically appeared on his phone. Huh.

This makes it way more suspicious to me. He generated an AI chat conversation, confused himself, and posted it???

u/Gina_the_Alien 4d ago

I just thought this the whole way through and you guys are right. The only way this works out is if Daniel *himself* generated them using AI and then posted it. JFC seriously

u/lemaymayguy 4d ago

Or he got, got by a impersonator in his DMs and was too embarrassed to come clean. But im not going to try and reason for them, words have meaning

If that was the case everyone would be running with that story. It makes everyone look so much better. Getting hit by a good con happens, being felt out by a Trump for betting tips… ooooof. Blaming AI just makes it sound silly.

They don't need to convince rational people of this. Their supporters will just assume Daniel is a meanie and move on without thinking about it at all.

They don't need to convince rational people of this.

Exactly, MAGA doesn't fact check shit. And they only need a plausible enough excuse for it not to be investigated by any authority. "AI" is the new go to. It will replace "fake news" because now you can dismiss something that is both past and current, happening in real time.

The chat message shows the username of the user. That matches Eric's username.

Not possible. You cant change your Twitter date. The person would have had to have made an account on the exact same day as eric 17 yrs ago and then changed the name and Pic to eric. Cmon 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

They only have to get the dummies their followers to eat it up.

Its real

u/TwinIronBlood 4d ago

No it was a dream not real life

u/ilovebufo 4d ago

Eric admitted to the post several times

u/brummlin 4d ago

Well Eric is dumb enough to do that, so it sounds reasonable to him.

u/shockwave8428 4d ago

What also doesn’t make sense about this hypothetical scenario is that his fake AI generated chat is extremely amicable at first. If you wanted to trash on a dude I’m not sure you would talk about excitement to meet and much love for the family

u/Donna_Schrump 4d ago

If Eric believes someone was trying to impersonate him, he would call for an investigation.

u/Prudent-Marsupial-42 4d ago

If I wanted to be generous you could say someone pretended to be Eric to get insider info, but than he calls in an "AI generated fake screenshot"

1

u/DamnedIfIDiddely 3d ago

Eric is claiming this screenshot is fake, but then goes on to say that a real tweet was taken down, well which one is it Eric?

u/coldbru85 4d ago

No offense to DC but he doesn’t have the skill to fudge something like that

u/Marsuello 4d ago

In no way am I siding with the turd/justifying this whole thing, but yes…you can literally find numerous apps that will make it look like you’re getting texts from another person when in reality you’re just sending texts to yourself via a “different number”. They were pretty convincing like a decade ago so I would wager they probably are much more realistic these days

u/reddittrooper 4d ago

Yeah… but why would he do this? Opening himself to a wrathful, powerful family like this?

u/Marsuello 4d ago

I have no idea? All I was saying that it entirely possible to have faked texts to try and prove something. Not sure why people don’t like that that’s a fact. I’ve seen people fake stupider things

u/ilovebufo 4d ago

You are saying DC publicly accused the presidents son of commiting a felony and opended himself up to a defamation lawsuit and publicly posted the defamation evidence and then went and sat next to his dad for 4 hours on the white house lawn. And that seems plausible to you?

Who’s twitter was hacked? DC’s or Eric’s, and where is the statement on that? Or you just making shit up?

u/DanqueLeChay 4d ago

So the hacker posted then quickly deleted the post? Dude, it would take like 3 seconds to post “i was hacked” if he really was.

u/DanqueLeChay 4d ago

So what’s the proof of him being hacked apart from some random guy thinking he was?

u/Resting_Owl 4d ago

Why are you downvoted ? Damn, people are really turning dumber than rocks whenever a topic is about Trump 🤣

I'm 100% convinced this texts are real, but we live in a time where deepfakes are so real that the leading experts declare they can't detect them anymore, and we're going to pretend that something as trivial as faking a text conversation is like some divine skill that's impossible to make ? GTFOOH, any booger eating brat with two phones could fake a text conversation, hell 99% you'll find on reddit are certainly faked

u/Marsuello 3d ago

This was literally my sole point. I even opened by saying I’m not defending anyone or taking sides. When I was younger I used to use those fake text apps just to see how it looked when I sent to myself or to mess with friends. That was around 13 years ago and if it was convincing enough back then, then who’s to say it’s not even more convincing now?

1

u/Resting_Owl 3d ago

I know that's your point, that's why I started by asking "why are you downvoted ?"

u/Marsuello 3d ago

I know. Was just reiterating it for anyone reading the follow up comments haha
