Trump sparks liberal meltdown with 'nuts and terrifying' Alcatraz plan

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

81% : Trump announced on Truth Social on Sunday night a plan to restore Alcatraz to all its glory, 62 years after it was shut down due to the exorbitant cost of running it.
79% : One X user trolled Trump after the announcement, writing: 'You know that Trump watched 'Escape From Alcatraz' or some similar film today and had a eureka moment.
44% : 'Once prison officials felt a man no longer posed a threat and could follow the rules (usually after an average of five years on Alcatraz), he could then be transferred back to another Federal prison to finish his sentence and be released.' Trump directed the Bureau of Prisons to work alongside the Department of Justice, FBI and Homeland Security to 'reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt' Alcatraz.
41% : The maximum security prison, which was shut down in 1963, will provide Trump a workaround to those court orders barring him from carrying out the mass deportation scheme.
28% : Trump has also floated potentially sending American citizens there and to other foreign prisons, but a reinvigorated Alcatraz could also solve that problem should legal challenges arise.
27% : One of the guard towers on Alcatraz Island with the city of San Francisco in the background In a post shared to TruthSocial on Sunday night, Trump vowed 'the reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE' 'That would mean millions of trials and it's just so ridiculous what's happening.' Trump has repeatedly clashed with the courts as he tries to send accused gang members and illegal migrants to a notorious prison in El Salvador.
25% : 'It was just an idea I had,' Trump proudly revealed later on Sunday, slamming 'radicalized judges' who made him look outside the box after repeatedly trying to block his efforts to deport illegal migrants.
18% : A second spokesperson in Newsom's office told the LA Times: 'Trump is pledging to reopen Alcatraz as American consumers feel the financial pinch of his unpopular tariffs and he continues to tussle with the courts over mass deportations of immigrants.' California State Senator Scott Wiener led criticism from within the state, warning constituents 'he wants to turn Alcatraz into a domestic gulag right in the middle of San Francisco Bay.' Wiener said even if he were to put aside the fact that Alcatraz is now a museum and one of the state's premier tourist attractions, Trump's proposal is 'both nuts and terrifying.
16% : But Trump maintains the notorious facility, which once held famed gangster Al Capone, will once again 'house America's most ruthless and violent Offenders.' Clarifying his position later on Sunday, Trump confirmed that his decision was made, at least in part, in response to 'radicalized judges' who are trying to limit his power to deport illegal immigrants.
16% : Trump has also directed the opening of a detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to hold up to 30,000 of what he has labeled the 'worst criminal aliens.
