Donald Trump is right: 'Whoever wins AI, wins' — no pause!

In a recent statement on his social media platform, former President Donald Trump expressed his disapproval of Americans' shift against artificial intelligence (AI) and data centers. Trump advocated for a strong and intelligent president to regulate AI, warning of a "SICK conspiracy" against the technology. He cautioned against "killing the Golden Goose," a term he uses to describe AI data centers, asserting that communities resisting these servers would become "backwards and poor," while the rest of the country would enjoy the benefits of increased jobs and investment.

However, Trump faces a challenge as 61% of Americans oppose a new data center in their community, including 54% of Republicans according to a recent poll. This stance is incongruent with the public opinion, as seen in other areas such as Iran War support and surveillance cameras. In the AI debate, Trump is backing the administration's aggressive approach, arguing that current regulations are a "Trojan horse" for regulatory capture by the AI industry.

The stakes are high, with Republicans heading into the midterms with a slim advantage in Congress, while Democrats require only a few more seats to gain control of the House and Senate.
