He’s still ass mad over Parasite winning Best Picture.

Tax incentives and the like are what’s needed, but states can do that while tariffs can be unilaterally imposed, hence his love affair with them.  This may be a way to get concessions on tax benefits for studios, but he’s too stupid to do that and his advisors would need to figure that out.

Or...and I'm just throwing this out there, someone on the inside that does these things for the Administration knew and it was intentional sabotage (they could always claim afterward they were unaware of the color thing).

There’s no way to make Alcatraz a prison again.  The building is fine but it’s too small and uses outdated technology.

It speaks to Trump’s rose colored nostalgia for the 50s in famous landmarks, race relations, and the general state of the country compared to the rest of the world.

It’s like he’s living in an episode of The Untouchables.

There.

Seems far easier to spin this as an old man that has literally no idea what year it is.

Just wait. At this rate it won't be long before someone simply sneezing in another country in our general direction will be considered a national security threat, and he'll demand we build a giant sneeze guard around the entire nation. We'll be the country-sized version of the bubble boy then. Only it won't do any good because he's the worst germ there is, and he's already inside.

For what it’s worth, as horrified as studios are, the markets are betting the idea will be reversed or heavily diluted.

the tours are getting more restricted to certain areas because of decay. and yes the tech that prisons use these days. 

we're talking a few hundred million to get this place operational again. i guess this is for the 'homegrown' criminals.

Plus like a zero percent chance it could even be made operational before he's dead one way or another, even if they went ahead with the plan.

“We’re negotiating with many countries but at the end of this I’ll set my own deals because I set the deal, they don’t set the deal, I set the deal,” he told reporters Sunday. “This is not like a big deal that’s gonna be signed — in some cases we’ll sign them, but we don’t have to sign them. I’ll be setting the deal, I’ll be setting the tariff.”'

and THAT's the "aRt Of ThE dEaL"

Trump walks back the tariff plan after it's clear no one liked the idea, not the right wanting to support Hollywood, not the fans of foreign media, and not Hollywood itself.

I interpreted it as the White House endeavoring to clean up his mess and turn a late night post into a real, workable policy

Not to mention that it's plumbing and drinking water system was pure garbage from the start because it was a rock island surrounded by salty water.

I'm sure it's just a matter of time before they come up with something more serious for this, though it won't be because he at all wants to save Hollywood. He just wants to inflict enough pain on it to force it to heel and accept some type of government oversight that'll no doubt be about who they can hire or imposing certain restrictions on what type of content they can include.

Just another part of the never-ending, ever more ubiquitous culture war of theirs. First the Kennedy Center and the museums, then the schools, and now this. It's no secret that Hollywood has been a big driver of cultural change in this country, and to a lesser extent worldwide. Only figures that with their so called war on woke they'd eventually go after it.

The actual proposal.  It barely makes any mention of tariffs because the T word makes Trump hard.  Honestly, if this had been published instead of the all caps tarrifsturbation, people would have a more positive outlook.

I watched The Apprentice, mainly because a Japanese minister calling Trump an extortionist recommended others to watch it. The movie really shows how Trump came to be what he is now. And the interesting thing is that the film has a similar effect to The Wolf of Wall Street; scumbags will be enthralled by Trump but most people will be able to see that he's garbage.

some of this is stuff the industry has wanted forever, but the bottom line is Trump is a raging idiot and doesn't understand so he just says "tariffs"

Some of the out buildings are tear down. The main cell block is nicely restored, but it’s like really small.  No amount of money could expand it enough to make the billions to expand it enough.

Plus, it’s been almost thoroughly proven that at least two dudes successfully escaped.  It’s not the unescapable citadel the movies portray it as.
