Here is President Donald Duck. Elon Musk was curious and wanted to Google something about Donald Trump. Google’s normal understanding of the obvious did not apply here. With the screenshot he took, although Musk typed “President Donald”, President Donald Duck came out at the top and Donald Regan, the 40th president of the USA, came out in second place.
Musk shared it on X and accused Google of banning Donald Trump. David Gokhstein, a cryptocurrency influencer, also commented on the post, saying that Democrats own Google. Republicans accuse Democrats of election interference after this post. And that’s not all. Let’s continue.
Wow, Google has a search ban on President Donald Trump!

President Donald Duck, Trump the moneybags, Musk the inventor
Musk, who only commented “!!” on James Lindsay‘s X post, also draws attention to the artificial intelligence of the Meta group owned by Mark Zuckerberg. The user who asks artificial intelligence about Donald Trump‘s election campaigns sees the answer to rejection and sees the message that artificial intelligence will not answer this issue. In the same conversation, when he asked about Kamala Harris’ election campaign, the artificial intelligence started to write it down item by item.
Musk also keeps a parody of Kamala Harris pinned to his account on X.

So what happened that Musk suddenly became so interested in politics? In fact, for a long time, Musk has been taking sides in political tensions. He described himself as a libertarian and showed that after he turned Twitter into X, he removed a lot of censorship. Users criticized this. They argued that the removal of video durations and the increase in letter limits was against the nature of Twitter.

The increase in “NSFW” content is another issue. But things have been rocked in recent days with people claiming that Musk is making hay underneath this libertarian facade. Before President Donald Duck, Musk was accused of having a subcode in place on X that in no way blocks Republican statements and bans those who criticize it.
The news of President Donald Duck coming out right after the news of the Twitter API leak shows that the hands of both sides are not clean. We find it interesting that powerful names in technology and the economy are throwing themselves into the political arena and taking sides in discrimination. We hope that the people who will lead the countries will be educated and trained. Scientists, inventors, and financiers will do their best to make our world and our nature more livable. Twitter API leak aside, President Donald Duck aside, and even the Simpsons aside, let’s hope the future holds good things for us.
Let’s give it a try too
Let’s be impartial and try it ourselves. Will we get the same results? It is also worth noting that the Twitter API leak is also unfounded by many users that it was only prepared and presented internally by a minority group and that they are trying to take the platform to a political side.
- First, let’s open a hidden Google tab so that cookies and information from the past don’t pull out different things, and let’s type President Donald there and see if we get President Donald Trump or President Donald Duck. Both presidents are important to us. We didn’t get a President Donald Duck-like. Musk’s in the PC version. In the mobile version, we encounter both Trump and President Donald Duck, although not like Musk.
- The next one is Grok. Grok is the stand-up comedian of artificial intelligence, but he answers both questions. While Donald Trump’s past influence and his “memes” are overpowered by black humor, we don’t see this in Kamala. But there are no differences in the mobile and web versions like Google. So, we don’t have a President Donald Duck.
- Oh, remember it face, ChatGPT. Even though our OpenAI was a bit behind, thanks to internet access, we managed to solve the problem and got some serious answers.
- Let’s try Gemini 1.5 on a platform that also has internet access. Although we were a little embarrassed that he used Wikipedia as a source, we were still able to get answers. Gemini states that it only interprets internet searches, as its data goes back to November 2023.
In short, we didn’t see a cut in X, nor did we see a cut in AI. Unfortunately, we couldn’t try Meta. Republicans criticize Zuckerberg a lot. So we will not be able to comment on this issue. Even if nothing happens, something does. The worst users organize among themselves, put some of their plans into action, and manage to get some platforms on their side. Especially those who love commenting, chaos, and politics are eager to join in.
Although not a very in-depth experience, we managed to get results for democrats and republicans, except for the mobile version of Google (President Donald Duck). We didn’t see anything about API leakage in X, at least we didn’t. Let’s hope that this election will end without incident and that we will make tech news by announcing new technologies.
