Robot Trump head spits out an ibuprofen every time the president tweets



Do you get a headache every time President Donald Trump tweets? Well, Paul Spelman has got you covered.

Spelman created a robotic head that spits out an ibuprofen pill each and every time the president tweets–which is quite often.

“I’ve been learning how to code and I wanted to build a project to practice what I’d learnt and pick up some new skills,” Spelman told the Daily Dot. “I wanted to build something fun that would hopefully give people a bit of a laugh, and also make a point about the current president’s unusual approach to running the country.”



The writer turned coder detailed how his invention works in the web development (r/webdev) subreddit as well as in a YouTube video, which features the uncanny simulacrum of the president–complete with empty eye sockets and a horrifying, gaping maw.

which have always been the features on his face that I find most unnerving.

My grandkids load me down with political jokes every Christmas. I could open an Anti-Trump Store.
