I don't know how much he understood due to the Alzheimer's. It wasn't obvious in his first term, but I wouldn't be surprised if he was being affected.

Given that he called it the Star Wars program, I'm pretty sure what happened was that he just saw Return of the Jedi at the cinema and thought it'd be great if you had his own death star.

I wouldn't be surprised if his crazy dementia filled ass, tried telling people the Darth Vader was going to come down from the planet Vulcan and fry his brain even further if he didn't get his damn Death Star.
