Alcatraz closed in’63 because it was too expensive to maintain and falling apart. How much will it cost to renovate today. What will it cost to maintain? How will staff get to work? Yes, it will be fairly secure…who will take their chances in the cold water with great whites? Definitely not cost effective.

Yup, and if anyone has ever taken the tour there it’s obvious that restoring it is beyond ridiculous. But then again, that’s probably what the rapey felon 47 envisions in his illogical mind for his political opponents and alleged “illegal immigrant gang members” he deems deserving of incarceration (despite being a convicted felon himself). Since he is now the crowned king by the spineless republican jellyfish congress and by his brain worm afflicted cult, he can do whatever he wants!

Perhaps, impeach and commit tRumpf to a padded cell in St Elizabeth’s there in D.C. Or solitary confinement in SuperMAX in Florence, CO.

Wow the cheapest thing about Alacatraz are the great white sharks that swim around the facility. Hard to escape when you are shark bait. Now film companies cannot film overseas - so if you have a movie in London there is a tariff put on it which is paid by- anyone want to guess - Yup the consumer thus dooming the filming industry to NOT film outside the US - I thought we were the land of the free and the brave. Guess not. Well Alcatraz is also haunted so there is that......

GERIATRIC GIBBERISH 101 💩

It’s too dumb to be called ‘trolling’ … but sure acts like a sundowning patient throwing a tantrum at medication time 💊

I honestly don’t think a younger Donald would say this crap 💩 … There’s nothing to get a hooker to notice him 👠 if he’s roaming the street like a senile old bitch 🎱

Trump is infusing much deflection.

So much batshit crazy nonsense, I can’t help but wonder what’s going on behind the scenes that he doesn’t want us to see?

Of course, he's totally insane! But, some is bragging bullshitting because he has a cult to entertain, some is trolling in order to distract from his impeachable, unconstitutional acts.

Hope they find Al Capone's hidden stash!

Just a distraction. So messed up in there I'm surprised it hasn't disintegrated.

It would be hilarious if it were not so tragic and dangerous for our nation. The silence of the Republican party is stunning. There is no honor in the GOP
