    1. PBS should pump in fake documentaries about how wind and solar energy causes cancer in immigrant children.

    2. Since Trump is so interested in foreign prisons why doesn’t he open a prison in Russia’s Siberia ? He & Putin are such good buddies.

      In the bizarre rambling answer he gave when asked about this today, he did seem to mention „the movies“ three times… it seemed like he was referring to the movie… it’s hard to tell exactly cause he no longer talks like a fully functioning adult.

      Donald Trump is showing a mixture of confusion, fear and rage that you usually only see in nursing homes. He clearly has dementia.

      Ik this isn’t proof that he did it because of tv but it doesn’t help things. He has never uttered alcatraz before and suddenly he wants to open it back up for some reason?

      He is cutting billions worth of things we actually need and is tossing it at random weird shit. We don’t need fema or money prepped for natural disasters. No need for disease prevention and monitoring. What we need is military parades and opening up old outdated prisons.

      He is insane. We have an insane person running the country and grabbing more and more power.

      For the elderly PBS is a lifeline – support your local stations

    6. IT IS SO MUCH WORSE THAN I THOUGHT:

      >During an Oval Office press conference on Monday, the president was asked why he decided that he needed to resurrect Alcatraz as a prison after it had been shuttered for decades, prompting Trump to deliver a rambling response that included him touting his own cinematic vision.

      >“Well, I guess I was supposed to be a moviemaker,” he declared, adding: “I mean, it represents something very strong, very powerful, in terms of law and order. Our country needs law and order. Alcatraz is, I would say, the ultimate, right? Alcatraz, Sing Sing, and Alcatraz, the movies. But it’s right now a museum, believe it or not. A lot of people go there.”

      >Referencing the flee attempt by Morris, alongside brothers John and Clarence Anglin, the president said that “nobody ever escaped” but “one person almost got there.” In the president’s telling, though, “they found his clothing rather badly ripped up” and full of “shark bites.” In the end, Trump described Alcatraz as representing “something that’s both horrible and beautiful and strong and miserable [and] weak.”

      Lol it even ties in the fear of sharks he developed from watching Shark Week.

      I knew it. I figured he was watching The Rock or something. That’s where the Hollywood tariff thing probably came in too. Grandpa Trump sitting in his chair saying they just don’t make movies like this anymore.

    8. It is worth noting Alcatraz costs 3 times as much as a standard prison since all supplies, including fresh water, need to be delivered by boat.

      This idiot really doesn’t have anyone reviewing what he posts on social media. Just an old confused clown with access to the largest audience in the world

    10. This coincides with his announcement of „100% tariffs“ on movies made outside the US. He has a literal toddler brain.

    11. Just like how he went on his low-flow toilets crusade within minutes of that King of the Hill episode covering the same topic, he’s now going to re-open a prison that was famously closed for its astronomical operational costs; *because he saw something on tv*.

      I know we live in hell and this is just one more example but honestly, this is so fucking funny. A dementia-added clown fixates on a word he recognized on television, and now a legion of obsequious toadies have to pretend renovating a museum into a prison is a coherent policy proposal.

    13. Honestly, this explains both the Alcatraz and Movie Tariff posts.

      He saw an older movie and got to thinking „Why aren’t we using Alcatraz to hold prisoners“ and „why are movies shot outside the US“ and those thoughts in his mind snowballed from there.

      „Trump announces plan to reopen Alcatraz after watching Escape from Alcatraz on PBs“ is a story so fucking absurd even The Onion would’ve never, ever written it.

      I truly fucking hate the times we are living in.

      So, the „last person he talks to“ rule now applies to made-for-TV movies?

      I’m losing my job in 23 days because I’m a Federal contractor and my duties have been deemed wasteful and unnecessary. I can’t articulate the hate this fills my heart with to see reckless and boorish nonsense coming from the person that did this to me.

      This reminds me when he randomly took on low flow toilets in his first term. Rumor is that King of The Hill episode was on that morning.

    18. sane_sober61 on

      If he sees Austin Powers, He’ll be signing an order for Shark-Attachable Laser Beams®

    19. Called this yesterday that he definitely just watched something involving Alcatraz. Although, I am surprised it was PBS and not a movie on TNT or AMC

    20. Rupert80027 on

      Wait. Maybe we can weaponize this. Quick, get that South Florida PBS station to air Snowpiercer, V for Vendetta, or The Great Dictator.

    21. Hey, we all get our best ideas when we’re sitting on the toilet in the middle of the night.
