Reporter: How did you decide to reopen Alcatraz?
Trump: I was supposed to be a movie maker… Nobody ever escaped. One person almost got there but they found his clothing rather badly ripped up, a lot of shark bites…
May 5, 2025 18:38Guys ... we have our answer:
He mentions movies twice in his answer about Alcatraz
Every f'n day, more idiocy, insanity, word salads filled with fantasy and delusion. He is the DISTRACTION, while the heritage goons destroy the gov't, the tech bros/billionaires drain the treasury, and the putin admirers burn down our democracy. I believe most of the cabinet are but distractions too
They seriously should keep him away from reporters. Ask any question, you get FruitLoops.
It's so reassuring to know that the President is making decisions based on whatever movie of the week happens to be showing. Dear Broadcasters - please, please refrain from showing Soylent Green until the orange buffoon is out of office.
Top tip: if being attacked by sharks whilst escaping Alcatraz you’d better be in an electric boat - available by mail-order from China only.
HOW THE FUCK IS THIS DEMENTED FUCK STILL IN OFFICE.
Just how much embarrassment is the GOP willing to accept??
See? This is why I said they got the whole "social security fraud signing dead people's checks" idea from Only Murders in the Building from last October.
So, Hitler was a frustrated, failed painter, and Trump was a disappointed auteur?
The takeaway, I guess, is if we wanna avoid Nazism, we need to encourage bad artists to keep at it?
Sweet Mother of God! This man is off the charts bat shit crazy!
As a Bay area resident for most of my life, I can say definitively "keep your fucking hands off Alcatraz"!
What?!? And Biden took all the shit for mental decline..
How does anyone stand there w a straight face while he spews this nonsense? Those people really worry me...
#DJTfolliesHe should be the first inmate ffs!💩🍊💩👀🙌🏻😖🤬
"We need law and order"
said the fucking traitor-rapist.
Seemed a good day to sail past Alcatraz. Strong winds today.
Where is Clint's empty chair now?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼

rambling old fool.

Why does this useless shit always look like a high school kid giving an oral book report on a book he’s never even opened?
And why does the press ask him questions like this when they KNOW he’s going to answer that way, and then they don’t follow it up with, “Well okay Buddy. If you say so.”
This will NEVER happen. They closed it because it was 3x the cost to operate as any other prison. It will cost millions to reopen.
If anyone needs confirmation the NFL is racist take a look at the person to his left. That is NFL Commisioner Roger Goodell. The same commissioner that was in charge when Colin Kaepernick was blackballed from the NFL.
So he is getting his ideas from movies now? Can someone show him "Downfall"? Please?
Why do I feel like we’re always getting a play-out of his first book report that he thought was amazing (cuz he didn’t even have to read the book)? ? “C’mon person next to me, lie w/ me, it’s fun! No one will stop you if you just keep going”
Who was saying he watched 'Escape from Alcatraz' right before this moronic announcement...
Fucking Roger Godell nodding in agreement. Another sycophant. WTF.
📌
REAL ANSWER ' I saw the film on tv and thought , that looks like it was a good prison I will get them to re-open it '
Someone needs to make sure he watches Inglorious Basterds. Or don’t. Let it be a surprise when it happens to him.
Indictment on us all
So, No FUCKING REASON. What a moron. He cannot answer any question directly, NONE.
So Donald, what size shoe do you wear? A lot of people ask me that. Biden did no work on the Wall and I know nothing about Russia.
Wow, Trump has really managed to make Idiocracy a daily soap.
How can someone be so unintentionally hilarious while also being absolutely terrifying?
I get it now-he thinks he’s in a movie. Cognitive ability is tanking before our eyes
What in blazes...?!!!
Tariffs because he watched a movie!
Trump is the Birdbrain from Alcatraz.
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS GOING ON
Is he talking about a cartoon Shark bites 🤣
Is the the picture he's referring to?
This woman was having facial expression control struggles.
The Mythbusters escaped from Alcatraz.
He looks old and sounds crazy.
What. Was. That. Nonsense?
What an idiot.
Imagine if he had watched "Escape from NY" instead, his ramblings would be "look what has happened to the once great city of New York since they sued me, I made it Bigley, now it's all crumbling down without me, the people there should demand I be made Mayor/Governor, I would make it Great again..."
. . . wh . . . what?
It represents something very strong and beautiful and ugly and weak, it has many interesting qualities?
His preoccupation with sharks is rather disturbing.
As soon as he said Law and Order I stopped watching.
Goodell is like WTF.
He saw the movie. Okay. How do the people behind him keep (for the most part) a straight face? I couldn’t.
Whaaaaat?? The light might on, but there’s nobody home boo 🥹
The poor lady behind him has super nervous body language, biting her lip a couple times. The people close to Orange Idiot are starting to realize how unhinged and detached from reality he is.
So he was watching “Greatest Prison Escapes”?
He’s a fool.
He thinks movies are real life.
Nothing he says makes any sense
Sounds like he watched Escape From Alcatraz and decided to tariff Hollywood and reopen the formidable prison.
Maybe he means Azkaban...scary movie prison.
They’ll LIE once he croaks and say it was ‘natural causes”…
That’s IF somebody doesn’t take his stupid uneducated ignorant Ass out first
Just…no.
I hope all these stupid fucks you see standing behind Trump when he's talking have massive ulcers, panic attacks, don't sleep at night, and everyone around them hates them. That's the best they deserve.
Reminds me of the disinfecting COVID episode.
Woman on the right (sorry, I don't know who she is) doing her best to hide her discomfort - and not doing a good job. But it was her choice to stand behind/beside trump so I am having a hard time feeling sorry for her.
We’re all just living in his fake movie
He sure loves the "weave." Or what sane people call it - incoherent rambling.
Dementia
So, he watched the Eastwood movie, it seems.

Trump announced Alcatraz reopening hours after ‘Escape from Alcatraz’ aired on PBS
The 1979 film starring Clint Eastwood about the daring 1962 escape attempt aired on the local PBS channel just six hours before the president made his demand that the prison be reopened
And this is the standard-bearer for the republican party. A complete imbecile, and yet almost all elected Rs will wind up to kiss his rear.
So they discussed tariffs on movies made outside the US, that got him thinking about movies and now he is re-opening Alcatraz, just gets more stupid every day.
…what?
He has only made one film. It's titled "The Horror of Donald Trump."
He's such a freaking idiot.
How does this person function in life?
Oh right, 7 bankrupted companies. Felony convictions. Impeached twice. Inspired an insurrection against the United States.
😳
jesus fucking christ.
We have a mentally ill "human" with the nuclear codes. He's way further along with his disease than Reagan ever was while still in office. Just straight mush up there.
The same people who would’ve lost their minds if Biden said something like this and said that it confirms their worst suspicions, are the same people who just laugh when Trump says it and say, “ahh… that’s just Trump being Trump”.
#DoubleStandard
#GOPBetrayedAmericaHuh?
Holy.
Freaking.
Crap.
I was supposed to be a movie maker?
wat
look how concerned, apprehensive, pensive and, basically, not happy with demented rambling the aides are. wow
listening to this as high as i am right now is wild
This is not the first time that he has confused a movie he watched with reality. Remember Sicario: Day of the Soldado? He was talking about prayer rugs after that one.
Worth noting that is the Commissioner of the NFL nodding away like a fool.
So shit. At least two people escaped from Alcatraz. If I remember correctly they never found one of them.
Murial Bowser and Roger Goodell look like they want to be ANYWHERE ELSE....
25th. Now!
Trump's mental acuity in 2025...
