Trump Says He’s Going To Reopen Alcatraz Prison. Doing So Would Be Difficult And Costly

The Rock is nearly inescapable. That SF Bay water is very cold during winter and cold during summer. Even if the inmates escape, they won't last 10 minutes in that water during the night.

It’s totally within Trump’s wheelhouse. You need to do better.

Apparently,
Human psychology and understanding people is not one of your strengths whatsoever.

I understand Trump likes Alcatraz because he gets a stiiffy thinking about possible escapees swimming through shark infested waters. He’d probably give orders to have the water chummed.

Obama will get to be the first occupant. Tulsi has the receipts. Remember when she ran as a Democratic presidential candidate? She us going after him....cold cool and collected.

All of our maximum security prisons are inescapable

There is no waste disposal plant on the island. There is no fresh water on the island. Buildings are crumbling and falling apart. The money that would used to rebuild the prison could be better spent on health care, education and any number things number that MAGA hates.

NEW YORK (AP) — President Donald Trump says he is directing his government to reopen and expand Alcatraz, the notorious former prison on a hard-to-reach California island off San Francisco that has been closed for more than 60 years.

President Donald Trump says he's directing his government to reopen and expand Alcatraz, the notorious former prison on a California island that's been closed for more than 60 years.

In a post on his Truth Social site Sunday evening, Trump wrote that, “For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering. 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.”

“That is why, today,” he said, “I am directing the Bureau of Prisons, together with the Department of Justice, FBI, and Homeland Security, to reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt ALCATRAZ, to house America’s most ruthless and violent Offenders.”

It will cost billions of taxpayer dollars to rebuild the prison that sits in San Francisco Bay. Also will cost billions to maintain and even more billions of dollars to bring food and water, there is no fresh water on the island. The money could better spent schools, food programs and health care AND it will add additional billions of dollars to an already huge National Debt.

Most likely not going to happen. Its kind of like when you make a Christmas shopping list early but you end up crosiing a few items off. Its probably way down on the priority list, just like California High Speed Rail.
