The president’s proposal to reopen Alcatraz, which closed in 1963 due to steep operating costs and is now a National Park Service museum with 1.4 million visitors a year....

So lose museum income for... higher costs and renovation costs?

So much winning.

Yes, but you have to think about how many random innocent people they can stuff in there who can't get out. You can't put a price on that.

I say we don't renovate it, and move all of MAGA there.
