Donald Trump appears to have taken the advice of his eldest son after announcing the reopening of America’s most famous prison.

The president revealed his intentions to “rebuild and open” Alcatraz just months after Donald Trump Jr. made the suggestion on social media.

“For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Sunday night.

Trump Jr. initially made the suggestion on X in January after his father announced he had signed an executive order that would send the “worst” criminal offenders to Guantanamo Bay.

“Now this is a great idea. Maybe we should also reopen Alcatraz?!?!” Trump Jr., 47, wrote at the time.

1. Proving yet again that if there's anyone on the planet more stupid than the father, it's the son.

I should have known that re-opening Alcatraz was a coked-up fever dream...

3. I think rumpusthinskin wants to remake the movie Alcatraz

Hence all the Hollywood hoopla yesterday. Perhaps a reality show. Bet he’s already fantasizing about chumming the waters for sharks and daring contestants to make a break for it. Clint Eastwood could be a judge.

5. Trump has a movie running in his head all the time.

He is the star, everyone else in the world are just props.
Everyone else is completely disposable.
