  1. Another impractical, costly boondoggle from fatso. It would cost more to reopen and expand Alcatraz than it would to build a new prison on shore.

  2. Once again, Donnie doesn't have a clue. He lives in a fantasy world. To renovate the prison would require a lot of red tape and would be a financial and logistical nightmare.

  3. He’s gone completely mental ! Complaining that people need to be tried before conviction 😮 – he needs to be put in home asap.

  4. It could be used in a similar fashion to Spandau. The first presidential library/prison with a single occupant.

  5. "Law and Order"…
    He has, what, 34 felony convictions.
    A jury found him guilty of sexual assault in a civil case.
    Straws, Greenland and now this.
    Chaos and drama each day to distract from the cost of so many things in the States.

  6. GOP closes Alcatraz as they deemed it a huge waste of money. Now watch as the GOP spins why reopening it is brilliant.

  7. He's CRAZY!!!!! The buildings are rotted out by salt air,and it cost way to much to operate and maintain . Thats why it was closed in the first place!!!!!

  8. 🤣🤣 These "democracies" are ridiculous and useless. They already look like Lopez Obrador, when he was president, he said pure nonsense and brought up such stupid topics that they have absolutely zero importance. And they do all this to divert attention from their miserable and drug-addicted country. What can be expected from these servants of their masters 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
