honestly if you're good enough at fucking to fuck your way into one of the most powerful positions on the planet, while also having some kind of built in ability to go manchurian candidate super-politician if there's a bluetooth speaker within a 10 foot radius, i think you should have it

Amazon hoped the unit would one day generate a profit by users spending more money somehow
