This is standard procedure for him. Something gives him an idea, assumes that is pure genius and he immediately runs with it without ever even bothering thinking it through or at least educating himself on the subject first to see if it is actually a good idea or not.
This is him just moments before he famously suggested shining UV light or injecting disinfectant into people’s bodies as a treatment to COVID:
I’m sure there was another similar incident in the last few months when some “policy” came out of the blue, and someone connected it to something else that had just recently been on TV. But, finding something like that is nearly impossible. What do you search for, “crazy policy ideas, Trump, 2025” There are just mountains of BS to sift through.
Been commenting about this for YEARS! Could never find that part of the video and here you have a pic!

so donvict watches public television. huh. the very same public television he wants to cut funding to…
and for entertainment purposes, not just to find ‘biased’ news reports to whine about in an overnight all-caps twitter tantrum.
He probably just didn’t know how to change the channel back to Newsmax.
He was mindlessly flicking through the channels until one seemed interesting.
If it was just him, it wouldn’t be that bad. Kinda like Bush Jr. The problem is that he surrounds himself with yes-men. I’m sure you’ve seen meetings with him and his orbit. He says something, stupid as hell, and his cult claps, stands, cheers and/or laughs like it’s worthy of a Nobel. It’s seriously deranged behavior. It’s a cult. Except he’s just grandpa sundowner everyone agrees with to get in his good graces, or a child spouting nonsense while the parents just go “that’s nice dear” absent-mindedly. He’s so easy to fluff.
I feel we also devalue Bush jr. for the way he chose to speak to people. I feel you could call Bush a smart man, even politically savy, while still talking like a layman. However, Trump is genuinely dumb like his speech implies, and people just roll with it.

No.

He was dumb but playing dumber. I can’t think of many other examples of people like that except Joe Rogan.
Yeah, that I can get behind. His Texan shtick was an obvious act. But, even without that, I don’t think he had an IQ of 100. Like most politicians he had good emotional intelligence, and an ability to connect with people. Still, it was clear that even pretty basic concepts were a stretch for him.
There was a Histioriometry test done, and the journal Political Psychology estimated around a 119 for ol’ W.
And Trump weighs 224 lbs with 4.8% body fat.
Like a spoiled 4 year old in so many ways…
Yep, I’ve been saying “he isn’t just a narcissist, he’s narcissistic in the way a 5-year-old would be”.
He likes to free style
You see, geopolitics is like jazz…
So… You take a prison which:
- Generates $60M yearly from being currently a museum;
- Needs serious rebuilding and modernization;
- Needs a way to be supplied with safe water, plus constant deliveries of all other necessities, likely by boat.
And you get:
- A prison which generates little to no revenue, while needing to be kept functioning.
- Only has its name and somber history going in its favor, because “prisoners should be afraid of the historic evil prison”.
Yes. Brilliant idea. Hopefully by the time the prison is ready Trump and his cronies get to be the first “tenants”. And whoever comes next declares the prison closed again and leaves them rotting there.
Nobody in the trump regime is ever going to prison because you wont elect me president…I, the only candidate who would actually guillotine traitors, imprison their cucks, and take all the wealth from criminally active billionaires and their labbyists, and cap wealth accumulation.
At this point you’re gonna have to do that first, and then I’ll elect you after, because we can’t trust any words spoken on the campaign trail by anyone anymore.
At the very least, you cant elect anyone who is wealthy.
I bet he plans on charging rent to the prisoners at California rates or some bullshit
Beachside property after all. Rockside.
Actually would be a cool idea, make there a combined prison-museum with luxury cells like the one Brejvik spends his time in. If it goes together with a prison reform to in general make American prisons more like Norwegian ones, would be cool.
I mean, inmates shouldn’t pay for that, I just caught a thought.
It’s more interesting after all, inmates can talk to tourists and not feel too isolated, but live in more comfortable conditions than their historical colleagues, and you still have a profitable museum.
Sort of a prison entertainment park. On an island. One can even have a small computing history museum with an IRIX machine there, next to a few dinosaur pics.
You can spend the night in a cell in Alcatraz already. I did it as a little scout. I would absolutely not call it luxury lol.
But it is a typical Trump deal, selling vibes of “doing it the rough old way, with guns and hookers and lead paint and gasoline that makes your windows rainbow-colored”.
That’s what he sells. His fans know it’s not achievable, they want a mess sufficient for something better to evolve, and vibes for them signify that mess. It’s a bit like Shadow ideology in Babylon V.
Yes…?
It was literally NEVER about the money being spent by the government. Anyone who actually believed that is by dictionary definition, dumb.
Somebody needs to just wave something shiny in front of him to distract him from this stupid idea.
An put a tariff on movies so he doesn’t do it again! Oh, wait…
Next up on truth social:
ONE OF MY SUBORDINATES JINGLED HIS KEYS IN FRONT OF ME FOR HOURS. I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS MUCH ENJOYMENT IN MY LIFE.
MAKE JINGLING KEYS GREAT AGAIN!
MJKGA!
watches a movie about the most famous prison escape ever
thinks it would be good to open said prison
which is not based on real events but dumnald is so stupid he cannot tell the difference
Alcatraz was a ridiculously expensive prison. That is why it closed down. Meanwhile as a museum it is actually generating millions of dollars every year in revenue.
Unrelated but his stupid ass grin pmo so fucking much. Like Nigel Farage’s but worse.
Please get this man addicted to Star Trek: The Next Generation.
“I am hereby placing a 100% TARIFF on transport fees for any Q visiting from the Q Continuum. As you know, one of them turned me literally orange, ‘as a joke’. If this dangerous criminal is found in Federation space again, I have given out orders to immediately apprehend the Q responsible and hold him in Alcatraz Prison. The Q will then be ransomed back to the bloodthirsty murderers of the Q Continuum.”
I bet tinyhands would think Big-ears are the good guys
He would emulate the protagonist Ferengi race… even more than he does now.
He would deport Geordi, Whorf and Data for not being white. And probably O’Brian for being Irish.
He’d keep Guinan around?
Trump would send Guinan back home, where she would be immediately assimilated.
What if she used her Q-fightin’ powers
Ha ha irish being white! Whats next, italians? Ha ha ho ho
Whorf
I think I think i read that fanfic back in the 90s… co-starring Long-Luc Dickhard and Chestly Crushher?
Lieutenant Commander Dat Ass
I was close! I figured he’d just watched The Rock.
The story is far too complex for him in that one
Nah he fell asleep watching The Rock, that’s more his style.
When we were a more serious Nation, in times past, we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals
I don’t know, SOAD radicalized me when I was a teenager and I would say that this is bullshit from a criminological point of view.
He wasn’t watching PBS… so someone else told him to do it after watching it. Probably same person trying to find more reasons to defund PBS.
See, I don’t know. He’s been posting about cutting funding, so I could see him turning it on expecting to see a bunch of queers making out with ostriches or whatever the fuck he thinks goes on at PBS but instead got an idea. Which is kind of sweet, if you think about it. That’s so PBS, they can’t help but educate even if the viewer is a fascist penis wrinkle.
It’s like a billion dollar rebuild and a multi million dollar yearly budget, why the fuck would we ever open this shithole ever again.
It lasted like 30 years specifically because sadly corroded the ever loving fuck out of everything and last I heard salt water isn’t any less salty then 1969.
Ikr, him watching pbs would be a good onion though
I’m sure he wasn’t even aware of what station was airing the movie. He was flicking through the channels and saw one that was interesting.
Lmfao whatta coincidence!
OK, now that’s pretty funny.
I bet we can tie a lot of his actions to the boob tube schedule
In the first admin it was clear he was watching Fox by reading his tweets and comparing.
Tiny hands for a tiny peen
Yeah that’ll keep government spending down.
( /s, obviously)
That man has dementia.
For some reason I read that as auschwitz.
I mean…
Not that different for the purposes he wants.
