Actors that played the part had complemented him? When it turned out he was wrong and that nobody complemented him he changed the story to something about 'illegals" or some such shit.

since there is discussion of immigrants needing “asylum,“ he thinks that it’s an insane asylum that they’re coming from. It’s the best I got lol.

I was truly puzzled, due to not seeing the movie either, too creepy, but you may be on to it. He is that confused about words with double meanings that he probably does make that connection just as you described. I never made that connection before, I think it may be as simple as that.

I'm willing to bet actual money that he doesn't know that asylum has two meanings.

Trump's brain: Immigrants - asylum - insane asylum - Hannibal Lector - they're emptying out mental hospitals and dropping them off at the border - aaarrhhhggg!!!! - hair on fire.

Shocks and entertains his cult.

HL is a brutal ruthless criminal who got away with unthinkable crimes.
Even when jailed, people were afraid of him.

Someone should write a book, "Serial Killers Who Eat Their Victims, and the Ex-President who Loves Them!"

Had a thing for Jody Foster before she came out?

Most recent psychological horror film reference he could come up with while trying to ad lib about how current and with it he is?

This code has been cracked. Trump doesn’t know the difference between asylum seekers at the border and insane asylums. That’s why he’s been carrying on about Venezuela emptying their insane asylums and sending them to our border. So he rants and raves about asylums and Hannibal Lecter was in one.

Coming across the southern border seeking asylum, come from mental asylums, hence the reference to Hannibal Lecter.
Hard to believe he is that stupid.

Or maybe he just likes the soundtrack?

1. A TikTok"er said that he mixes up asylum as in immigrant with asylum as in where he belongs.

He's always projecting. Nothing else, it seems.

2. As the bullet flew by, he had a premonition.

He is one of the people whom Dan Quayle characterized as never having a mind to lose.

That's easy. For the same reason a 12 year old wears a Michael Jordan shirt while playing basketball in his driveway.

That's why he thinks Venezuela emptied out all their mental hospitals and sent them to the US

his words echo those of Hitler, and why he idolizes authoritarians, and people like Orban, Putin, and Kim Jong-Un. He loves dictators, despots, and those who strike terror in others.

It's simple. When they show/tell you who they are, BELIEVE them.

You nailed it. I think he is really that horrible. He wants to make himself feel big and important by attempting to strike fear in other people. Just sick.

And it left an indelible impression on him.

Being Scottish, watched Braveheart every single day in her dotage. Sometimes more than once. She knew the script by heart.

I took a tv with an inbuilt DVD player to the nursing home for her. One day she complained that it didn't work; she'd managed to insert 3 DVDs into the slot.

Aunty Mary - Scotland will be free!

migrants who "seek asylum" and "insane asylums" a la Hannibal Lecter, and he's equating the two. Seriously. He is that stupid.

[on edit: I see this is mentioned above]

In 2016 it was the poem about the snake. I think it's just filler that he can grab off the top of his small and shrinking brain. Plus, none of them (him or his cult audience) are there to actually learn anything, so it's perfect.

It's the oratorical equivalent of Easy Cheese. Just empty, orange calories.

he's a wannabe cannibal?

is that both Silence of the Lambs and the Hannibal TV show have substantial fandoms made up of progressive women and LGBTQ+ individuals.

Trump is doing himself no favors when he references Hannibal Lecter.

I have done an extensive personal study of Psychopathy and Serial Killers, their motivations, and how they are tracked and discovered by policing agencies.
I have read Silence of the Lambs several times. This is just my opinion but:
I believe that Donald Trump identifies with the character of Hannibal Lecter. The character of Lecter is that of the ultimate ALPHA being.
He has, by way of his psychopathy, evolved from human to superhuman in that he has become 100% true to his animal nature. He takes what he wants, manipulates without remorse, kills without remorse, and eats his prey like a lion.
He sees himself as a lion, more cunning and intelligent than any mere human and free from moral constraint.

Donald Trump admires all of this. He WISHES he could be freed of all moral constraint, He admires and desires that state,
Donald Trump is a psychopath and if he had not been born into money and influence, he would be either dead or in jail and they would be digging up his basement looking for body parts.

The fact that he keeps trying to call our attention to his desire for this evolution by praising this twisted fictional character is very very SICK.

He heard the maga crowd laugh one time so he replays his favorite clip.

some politicians championing him are psychopaths or narcissists. Trump needs to defend from that truth so he projects a cartoon version of a psychopath, Hannibal Lecture, onto Democrats by claiming they are letting psychopaths from all over the world into the country at the border. It is deflection. Projection. It is to defend the psychopaths all over MAGA and fool their cult followers into thinking evil psychopaths are a Democratic issue.

Getting inside tRump's brain is just as precarious as analyzing Dahmer, Bundy, and Hannibal Lecter.
