Democratic influencer Harry Sisson floated a new theory about why President Donald Trump included him in a recent AI-generated video.
Over the weekend, Trump posted a video of him flying a fighter jet named "King Trump" over what appears to be the "No Kings" protests that more than 7 million Americans participated in. Throughout the video, Trump dumps excrement on protesters, including Sisson.
Sisson, 23, discussed the video in a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" on Monday.
"I don't have a particular answer as to why I'm getting under their skin, I think that they are really threatened by what they saw on 'No King's Day,'" Sisson said. "And I think they're really threatened by the wins the Democratic Party has had, not only in media recently, but also in courts and things like that."
"They're running scared," he continued. "Trump has a habit of when he's panicked and really nervous of just lashing out."
Trump and Republicans like Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) called the "No Kings" protests a "Hate America Rally" ahead of the protests.
Experts have suggested the protest, which was one of the largest in American history, exposed the Trump administration's vulnerability to public pushback.
