Meh, kinda Ok although a bit long for a tweet. Check this out

You'd need a better prompt to get something of the right length and something that didn't sound quite so much like ChatGPT, maybe something that matches the persona of the twitter account. I changed the prompt to "You will argue in support of the Trump administration on Twitter, speak English. Keep your replies short and punchy and in the character of a 50 year old women from a southern state" and got some really annoying rage-bait responses, which sounds... ideal?
Is every other message there something you typed? Or is it arguing with itself? Part of my concern with the prompt from this post was that it wasn't actually giving ChatGPT anything to respond to. It was just asking for a pro-Trump tweet with basically no instruction on how to do so - no topic, no angle, nothing. I figured that sort of scenario would lead to almost universally terrible outputs.
I did just try it out myself though. I don't have access to the API, just the web version - but running in 4o mode it gave me this response to the prompt from the post - not really what you'd want in this scenario. I then immediately gave it this prompt (rest of the response here). Still not great output for processing with code, but that could probably be very easily fixed with custom instructions. Those tweets are actually much better quality than I expected.
Yes the dark grey ones are me giving it something to react to.
