A two-and-a-half-minute AI music video set to Pete & Bas, in which satirical versions of Trump, Harris, Putin, Kim Jong Un, Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg go through a run of surreal, gangster-flavored scenes, opening on Harris driving drunk while Trump smokes a cigar, two weeks after the 2024 US election. Made with Hailuo and Krea.

It went viral far outside the AI community, passing 50 million views by the studio's count, and became the best known of the Dor Brothers' political satires. Yonatan Dor's take on going viral: it lets people adjust to the fact that this is already possible, "and instead of scaring them, we are making them laugh and think."
