I can only imagine that anyone who might have to have anything to do with that is just crying, "Nooo, in the name of god, no please, no"... and making themselves very, very busy on other projects that they can't be spared from.

It be the equivalent of Lettuce Truss announcing that she's going to send a dozen old Bristol Beaufighters to Ukraine to help the fight against Russia.

It was closed for a reason!

Vanity with a hint of sadism.

Making a movie in another country is a national security threat. Cannot quite see how another Star Wars film is going to affect a countries security but he knows these things best, however for the UK having a US made film is surely the same security threat in reverse and all films should be banned for the danger they pose?

Alcatraz, closed because it was too expensive. Nice little earner now from tourism, maybe with tourism plummeting in the US that income is dropping too?

 

A vanity project that will do nothing to reduce violent crime in the US, some might even see it as a challenge to get sent there. Headline grabbing but like most of his headline grabbing not going to happen (build a wall all the way across the Mexico border, all hell breaking loose if hostages in Gaza arn't released, end Ukraine war in 24 hours, take Canada and Greenland into the US, and the biggie, Tariffs to instantly produce all stuff in the US, and the biggie, Make America Great Again)

At least reopening Alcatraz raises the interesting prospect that Trump may one day end up as an inmate there himself!

That would be funny, dispense with the trials, invite him to the grand opening "and would you like to inspect your, errr, a cell sir?"

Hmmm nice thoughts. How about we combine both options and also keep it open as a tourist attraction so that everyone can go along and point and laugh?

A bit like Bedlam? Ironically with the current use of the word "a scene of uproar and confusion", reminds me of anyones term of office?
