President Trump said on Sunday that he wanted federal law enforcement agencies to work on restoring Alcatraz, now a museum, to a functioning maximum security prison.

Herhaal een van zijn constante refreinen dat de Verenigde Staten een gevaarlijke, wetteloze plaats waren geworden, schreef de heer Trump op sociale media dat hij Alcatraz wilde, een eiland in San Francisco Bay, om te worden vergroot en herbouwd om te huisvesten “om Amerika te huisvesten die ons niet meer in onze vacatures hebben gehouden, die zijn gewenste criminelen, die zijn gewenst in het kader van de criminelen, die zijn gewenst in het kader van The criminals, who are to remove his work, have been desired, have kept their work, they are desirable, they are desired, have held their work and who are desirable.

It was not immediately clear how his minging could be taken into action, since such a project would be extremely expensive and that the administration was already planning to cut billions of dollars from the budget of the Ministry of Justice.

Mr. Trump said that he had dedicated the Bureau of Prisons, the Ministry of Justice and the Homeland Security Department to work on his idea, together with the FBI – a curious choice given that the agency does not play a role in crashing people convicted of crimes.

A reopened Alcatraz, Mr Trump wrote, would “serve as a symbol of law, order and justice.” The prison conquered the public imagination as the home of the “worst of the worst” until it was closed in 1963 and eventually became a popular attraction of the museum.

In addition to holding the gangster that is known as “Machinegeweer Kelly” and Al Capone – whose several charges Mr Trump often mentioned on the campaign track to describe himself as unfairly prosecuted – is Alcatraz the most known for the escape of three men in 1962. They are never found in the cold of the island. Nowadays Alcatraz is best known as a damp, cold and nostalgic main component of tourist packages and cycling for children.

For comparison: the current Federal Super-Maximum Security Prison in Florence, Colo, has never escaped a prisoner.

In California, Scott Wiener, a senator of the Democratic State that represents San Francisco, called Mr. Trump ‘absurd on his face’ and the newest example of what he called ‘constantly loosening behavior’ of the president.

A spokesperson for Gov. Gavin Newsom laughed when he was asked about the president’s command. “It seems that it is another distraction day in Washington, DC,” said Izzy Gardon, the director of the governor’s communication director.

Mr. Gardon pointed out that it was more than six decades ago that Alcatraz operated as a prison, and that it is again a facility to accommodate prisoners for many years and considerable federal investments at a time that the president said he wants to lower the expenses.
