We need to make deepfakes of Trump talking about election fraud being a scam and how the american populous, especially urban and rural republicans, are fucken dumb. Just fill this removed with trump deep fakes.

For what it's worth, I doubt these videos were "viewed" millions of times. X tracks a 1-second automatic playback as a view, such as when someone slowly scrolls past on their feed. Every other service typically counts that as an impression.
