Former President Donald Trump made an unexpected campaign stop Thursday, appearing on controversial YouTuber and professional wrestler Logan Paul’s “Impaulsive” podcast. During the episode, which contained a roughly 45-minute interview, Trump urged young voters like Paul’s followers to vote for him over President Joe Biden, who he said had a “less than 1% chance” of joining Paul’s podcast. Paul has extended an invitation to Biden to come on the show, too.
Paul asked Trump a number of questions about pop culture, including whether he has knowledge of aliens’ existence and if he thinks his younger brother Jake Paul will beat Mike Tyson in an upcoming fight . Trump also commented on the emergence of artificial intelligence and deepfakes that have been used to create fake videos of him advertising scams, calling the technology “really powerful stuff.” Trump said he has met with tech leaders, including Elon Musk, to discuss the possibilities of AI.
