Trumpbot

A slackbot that uses Google's Natural Language Processing API, and Markov Chains, to find / generate Trump rhetoric.

I made this for a hackathon. My teammate, Luke, made a HillaryBot in Ruby, and we set them against each other.

disclaimer: I abhore Donald Trump and everything he stands for, but his speeches are great for training really funny Markov Chains.

Setup

1. Put your slackbot token in a file called 'token' in the root directory
2. Set up Google Cloud Platform properly
3. Run: npm install
4. Run: node index.js

Some great TrumpBot-generated text:

• "The country’s not buying it, it is good, they will reimburse us for the better future."
• "And it probably won't even be allowed to. But they were gone and Mike Pence is leading an effort to get the joblessness."
• "I think we can have our country dry."
• "I will be a very, very not good at politics, but they're really good and we're going to be smart."
• "My mother and father taught me that this fake news was indeed fake news."
• "So I want a mainstream immigration policy designed to benefit politically correct special interests."
