Donald Trump is being blasted for his plans to reopen Alcatraz, with experts saying it will cost millions and years of work to make it a modern, functional prison.

That is if he envisions getting to that level.
“REBUILD, AND OPEN ALCATRAZ!” President Trump bellowed on Truth Social Sunday evening in a post in which he lambasted criminals and “the dregs of society” for being in America “for too long.”
The U.S. president told reporters on Sunday that the idea came from his frustration at “radicalized judges” accused of slowing down his deportations.

But former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat whose district includes the island, questioned the feasibility of reopening the prison after so many years. "It is now a very popular national park and major tourist attraction. The President's proposal is not a serious one,"
Scott Wiener, a Democratic state senator said: “Putting aside that Alcatraz is a museum & tourist attraction, this is both nuts & terrifying.”
