Donald has always been easily swayed by whomever or whatever is in front of him.

But lately, his cognitive decline has become more obvious,

and that's being reflected in his policies to the extent that they even are comprehensible.

He knows on Sunday that he had plans to open the notorious Alcatraz prison,

a move that surprised many and confused even more. Here's CBS with more. President Trump said he is

directing his administration to reopen Alcatraz prison to hold America's most violent criminals. The former prison was known for

holding some of the most notorious felons in the country like Al Capone. It opened in the 1930s,

we then closed its doors in 1963 for several reasons, including operational costs. The president

made that announcement on social media, saying in part,

when we were a more serious nation in times past,

we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals

and keep them far away from anyone they could harm.

That's the way it's supposed to be.

So how did Donald come up with this brilliant idea?

I have a theory, but here are some others before I get to mine. The timing was not exactly subtle. Over the weekend, Donald was,

of course, as usual at Mar-a-Lago, and around 9 p.m. Saturday, Miami's PBS affiliate, WLRN,

aired the 1979 classic Escape from Alcatraz.

The movie ran again on Sunday morning at 11, which means Donald had two opportunities to see it.

Likely after and then before his two rounds of golf or during one of his, sometimes daily, probably more often than that,

temper tantrums to see the movie, although it could have happened simultaneously because he probably

has a lot of temper tantrums while he's playing golf because he's so horrifically bad at the game

that he needs to cheat at it and it makes him upset.
