Donald Trump’s well-spring of purely stupid notions has zero bounds, it is a bottomless pit of nonsense.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

For instance, he is considering reopening Alcatraz prison, the long-abandoned lockup in the middle of San Francisco Bay. Holy crap! What in the name of ridding the government of wasteful spending is going on here?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The prison has been vacant for many decades. It is falling apart. It is now part of the National Park Service’s list of tourist attractions. Trump wants to reopen it? He wants to house prisoners there?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Why? For what possible reason? What is the incentive?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Has anyone told the dipshit in chief the cost of such a project? I will cost the government billions of dollars!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

OK. All of that is the bad news. The good news is that it isn’t likely to happen. Congress won’t allow it. The matter will end up in the court system after someone decides to sue Trump over this latest form of pure political idiocy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It’s worth calling brief attention nonetheless to the kind of nonsense that flutters around that vacuous skull that sits on Donald Trump’s shoulders.<\/p>\r\n\n
