 Ahoy, ahoy, and welcome back to the channel. I don't even, I had some plans for what I was gonna do today in a video, but then I spent all yesterday instead of preparing for the video, just watching what was happening in the US capital, so my mind has been a bit distracted, and I thought to myself, uh, then as the day's video got closer and closer to needing to be made, I was like, what am I gonna do? I realized that Donald Trump is actually an SCP, technically he's not, technically something else is an SCP, and he's being used to contain that other thing, but I think, I think it'll work, I think it'll work, so today we're gonna talk about how you're wrong about SCP-50004. So SCP-50004 was written originally by DJ Cactus, and I'm gonna give you the short summary version today. So how did Donald Trump end up in an SCP article? Well, to be fair, SCP articles contain lots of stuff about lots of people, so it's not outside the realm of possibility that he would show up in one, but what has happened here is DJ Cactus, being the brilliant writer that he is, has created a bit of a shared universe of presidential SCP stuff just between two articles, but those two are, and there may be more, but I know the two articles in particular. These two articles are massively long, at least short story length, maybe even if you combine them together in a novella link, and the first one is SCP-444, SCP-444 I believe was a contest earned due to the 4000 contest, could be wrong, I think, actually no, for sure it was, and SCP-444 is Al Gore, and the name of that one is Bush v Gore, and so it kind of sets up the SCP Foundation and George Bush as a clone of Bright, sort of, and that sort of sets up the SCP Foundation to be really well integrated into the politics of the US, at the US Capitol, and then SCP-5004 is, I'm gonna read it exactly here, and then I'm gonna tell you what the hell this means, because this is a very long, very complex sentence. SCP-5004-A is a colossal, phomatological entity identified as Suspira Prime by the Federal Bureau of Investigation Unusual Incident Unit and self-titled as Old Gorman, which was ritualistically summoned to the material plane by US Supreme Court Justice and noted sorcerer Charles Evan Hughes during the US general election of 1916. The supposed intent of this summoning was, that's one sentence, by the way, was to A. Justice Hughes and his campaign against incumbent President Woodrow Wilson, however this effort was in vain as SCP-5004-A was originally too weak to take any action that could have aided the Republican candidate. After his eventual loss to Wilson, Hughes, either unknowingly or out of spite, altered the conditions of his ritual in such a way that changed SCP-5004-A's stated intentions, leaving the entity to sleep for a hundred years before awakening. So, the concept here is very simple. Essentially, a man summoned a demon, essentially, to help him win a presidential election in 1916, and when it failed to help him, because it wasn't strong enough when it was initially summoned, he imprisoned it underneath the capital for a hundred years. This normally wouldn't be such a big deal, but this entity feeds on chaos and strife. And if you can think of a place in the world that's got more chaos going on than the US capital, well, there's probably a few, but not on such a consistent scale over the last hundred years, to be honest with you. I think it's constant. Every day, day in and day out, versus maybe a war here and a war there. Like, it's bad. And it's just gotten worse over the last 20 years. I mean, it's always been bad, but it's gotten worse over the last 20 years. So, that chaos and strife has fed this demon for a hundred years. And in 2016, it was going to get out. Now, there's a subplot in this SCP in five thousand four. Actually, there's a couple of subplots. But the important things are basically that the Supreme Court justices are wizards, specifically, I believe the most powerful wizard on the Supreme Court at the time of the writing was Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who was tasked on numerous occasions to fight with old Gorman and eventually managed to keep to imprison him back underneath the, underneath the capital. But the other half of this says, what does any of this have to do with Donald Trump? Well, you know, the timing is perfect. It's 2016. And as it turns out, there were three, there were three reality sinks in the world at the time that wasn't that were known. And these are people who just by their existence and proximity can like drain reality warping powers from other entities. And one of them is Dr. Clef, which is actually pretty well supported in many tales and canons, although in a few Dr. Clef is just a regular guy. Some child that was incapable of, you know, being used for this purpose, and apparently Donald Trump, Donald Trump apparently makes it impossible for reality warpers to work random. And so the SCP Foundation figures that, hey, why don't we get Donald Trump elected in 2016 so that when old Gorman awakens, he won't be able to actually escape and do any damage because his reality warping powers will be limited. And and it works, I guess. So the SCP Foundation keeps doing things that nobody thinks will work to get him reelected to get him elected. And then it turns out that, like, they didn't need to do shit. He just is just once they pushed him into actually running, the bullcrap that he was doing naturally was getting him elected anyway. Like they kept doing stuff and it was actually harming him slightly. And they kept thinking that, like, there was some sort of malevolent force working against them because everything that was happening was telling them that, you know, there's no way this man is going to get elected to president. And somehow he gets elected anyway. There's like this concept that maybe there's some sort of an anomaly around that, but it's not really delved into do deeply. It's just kind of left hanging for a particular reason. The idea is that it's a fun plot point, like, is it anomalous or is the world really just that fucked? And and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, along with, I believe, a bunch of other, uh, yeah, a bunch of other people who are also wizards like fight back and eventually see a little Gorman way. But if you didn't know it, I'm telling you now, Donald Trump, I guess, technically is an SCP because it's SCP 50004-A and then SCP 50004-B. He's technically not the core anomaly. It's like a group designation, which happens sometimes. But I guess it's fair to call him an SCP in this instance. But yeah, that's the story of what happened with old Gorman and Donald J. Trump. I just, I couldn't get my mind on anything else. So I figured at least I'd have a little bit of fun with one of the with what is a very fun SCP article and do a video about that today. Stay safe out there, guys, especially if you're in the Washington, DC area. I know that it's probably probably over the whole insurrection and rebellion problem that we were having yesterday. But just stay safe out there on the off chance that it's not over. I mean, we don't know that those people went home home. Like they weren't from DC, so they may still be out there waiting to storm something again. And hit the subscribe button, Carl. Yeah, I'm talking to you, Carl. I know you watch my videos and you don't subscribe and that's because you're a jerk. Just hit the subscribe button. That's all I'm asking. And then head on over to patreon.com forward slash decimary and pledged any level like everybody here on the screen already has, including Dr. J redacted and Cinderrikey, who have both pledged at $100 and Morgan was pledged at $40. It is especially in days like today. Nice to know that I'm not alone out here and I will see you all again on Tuesday, hopefully in a better mood.
