And that’s basically it!
This is standard procedure for him. Something gives him an idea, he assumes that it is pure genius and he immediately runs with it without even 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 on a national press conference that shining UV light or injecting disinfectant into people's bodies could be a treatment to COVID:
Been commenting about this for YEARS! Could never find that part of the video and here you have a pic!
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.

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 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.
Ikr, him watching pbs would be a good onion though
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.
Lmfao whatta coincidence!
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.
So... You take a prison which:
And you get:
Yes. Brilliant idea, truly a Trump deal in all its glory, as we get to see how the casino-bankrupter's mind works. 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.
I bet he plans on charging rent to the prisoners at California rates or some bullshit
Somebody needs to just wave something shiny in front of him to distract him from this stupid idea.
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!
Yes...?
It was literally NEVER about the money being spent by the government. Anyone who actually believed that is by dictionary definition, dumb.
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.
Please get this man addicted to Star Trek: The Next Generation.
He would deport Geordi, Whorf and Data for not being white. And probably O'Brian for being Irish.
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?
Stop letting this man watch television.
Let him watch all the television he wants. Stop letting him interact with people and things.
Let him interact with people and things, but in a retirement home where he belongs.
He really is a profoundly stupid man. Everyone who supports him should be ashamed of themselves.
His supporters have been so crippled by centuries of inbreeding they see him as their genius messiah, literally.
Has he been there? Like it's fuckin old. And small. Like really small. I don't know if he can legally do that either. Since it's a state park.
The last thing that America needs is another jail. They have more jails and inmates than any other country on the planet. Also it would cost much more to refurbish Alcatraz than it would to build a new jail. The orange rapist is an idiot.
The same PBS he wants to cut ahahaha
That man has dementia.
OK, now that's pretty funny.
Alzheimers in full bloom.
Dementia Donnie should not be running this country.
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.
Is he reopening Jurassic Park? 🤭
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.
thank god he didn't watch the rock on hbo
Consider how stupid Donald Trump is, then consider how stupid one would have to be to vote for him, then consider that those people are all around you, all the time.
He better not be watching PBS. Not only did he not donate, like viewers like me, he is cutting their federal funding!
