A bunch of political posturing bs. You want your tax dollars to update a dilapidated structure that was closed partly because of extreme logistic expenses to begin with? It’s the imagery is all Trump wants. Sounds tough. Shouldn’t happen when cheaper alternatives exist. Aren’t you a fiscal conservative?

Use the one in Ohio where they put Andy Dufresne. I like that one. Opening Alcatraz would create jobs. There are plenty of other prisons that could reopen.

I doubt this will happen, but if it did happen, I bet he could build it cheaper than expected. Remember US Embassy in Israel. He did it in 6 months for only $400K instead of building from scratch taking 6-10 years.

Alcatraz is a symbol....while I think it may be impractical, it would be cool to have it back.
