    No way, this is a matter for Trump to figure out, no adults in the room allowed.
    /s

    EDIT: Added /s because Poe’s law.
    But it’s OK if you don’t think it’s funny to make a jab at Trump not behaving like an adult in this context.

        More than two options available… maybe he sucks at making clever sarcastic comments? Or maybe he was not sarcastic? Something as simple as /s would have helped.

          If your comment requires /s, maybe just don’t post it in the first place.

          No adults in the room allowed, is very clearly referring to all the people who claimed there were adults in the room to “manage” trump, preventing him from doing way more harm than he did.
          Normally I agree sarcasm needs a /s, because of Poe’s law that says:

          without a clear indicator of the author’s intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.

          But in this case the reference should be clear enough, that anybody should know the context, and clearly be able to identify it as sarcasm.

            Dude that’s for the reply… your last sentence comes across as *it’s not me it’s you" mindset… the dosnvoates are clear evidence that contradicts this statement… anyway… thanks for explaining.

          looking to influence artificial intelligence (AI) regulations

          That’s politics whether you like it or not.
