Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez suggested on Monday that a company should build an AI data center near the Mar-a-Lago resort. This comment follows recent remarks from President Trump regarding the economic future of communities that choose to oppose the construction of these facilities.
The President stated on Monday that communities resisting the development of AI data centers will suffer negative economic consequences. He claimed the only reason a community would reject these projects is if they want to end up being backwards and poor. In a post on Truth Social, the President wrote, “If they want to be successful and rich, with far lower taxes and jobs all over the place, let Data Reign. The good news is that there are plenty of other places that want them.”
