I am a big fan of Pacino’s!

I had never seen that vid. How weird and freaky. Like people in the comments there noted, I can imagine some people unaware of the admitted manipulation saying, “Whoa, did you see that too?!”

On the presidential race, both of the leading candidates (neither name I can recall at the moment) have actually said such goofy comments that it will be unclear which is genuine and which is fake.
