But saw a post on FB with a tweet this morning from Trump.
He wanted to point out to governors that "Mutiny on the Bounty" was his favorite movie.
I do not think he understood the movie at all. If someone could share it here.
I knew he was an idiot, but this is special stupid.

Tell the Democrat Governors that Mutiny On The Bounty was one of my all time favorite movies. A good old fashioned mutiny every now and then is an exciting and invigorating thing to watch, especially when the mutineers need so much from the Captain. Too easy!

I prefer not to link it.

They are saying he is Captain Smith on the Titanic and not Bligh on HMS Bounty

this deserves a high ranking.

Apparently he missed the irony.
