I cannot think of a worse place to be than in the Everglades in the Summer. [View all]

So, I wonder what it will be like to work there. If you have a mass incarceration facility, you need a large staff to just do the basics. Those jobs will definitely not be desirable ones, at any pay level. So, how do they get people to show up and work there?

Imagine, if you will, the hottest, stickiest summer day you've ever experienced. Well, that's what it will be like every day this summer at the Donald J. Trump Alligator Concentration Camp. Who is going to work there? I can't even imagine...
