This election is tragically comical.
The stakes are high, yet candidates fail to address the issues at the debates.
Bickering and name calling prevail
Keeping with that trend, let’s write some speeches! Who needs facts!

How it was made
The program reads various comments made by candidates Clinton and Trump and generates new speeches based on how the text is weighted. The source text contains things each candidate has said while campaigning and during the 3rd debate.
The app uses Markov Chains to generate the speech. Two datasets were created. One with Hillary’s popular campaign comments and the other with DT’s.
How it works
Want a Hillaryish speech – slide toward nasty
Want a Trumpish speech – slide toward tricked down
More neutral – keep it neutral
Try it yourself!
