For some reason I read that as auschwitz.
Not that different for the purposes he wants.

That man has dementia.
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:
This is standard procedure for him. Something gives him an idea
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.

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.

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.

I was close! I figured he'd just watched The Rock.
The story is far too complex for him in that one
Yeah that’ll keep government spending down.
( /s, obviously)
Nah he fell asleep watching The Rock, that’s more his style.
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
OK, now that's pretty funny.
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.
Lmfao whatta coincidence!
Ikr, him watching pbs would be a good onion though
